Amendments

As of 9 September 2011 Students wishing to graduate in December 2012 from the CEMS MIM Programme must start the

CEMS internship latest on 3 September 2012 An internship evaluation form must be handed in

to the home school by 15 October even if the internship has not been ended (page 5)

Legislation In Brazil Due to recent changes on the legislation of the Brazilian Student Visa it

is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

FOREWORD Dear CEMS Student

CEMS INTERNSHIP ABROAD

Internships provide students with the real-life professional learning experience of integrating

an organisationrsquos culture and processes The main objective is to turn academic experience

and theoretical knowledge into a professional multi-cultural experience They must

experience Internships can take place at a CEMS Corporate Partner although not on a

compulsory basis They can also take place at a non-profit organisation such as in a

company (the first 10 weeks of a full-time employment position are also accepted)

bull Internships can take place at any time (also prior to CEMS selection) except parallel to

RECCOMENDATIONS BY

Denisa Zichackova (Corporate Services Manager CEMS Head Office) and Fredrik Alhberg

(Vice-President CEMS Student Board 2011)

Given the importance of the internship in the CEMS curriculum we would like to make some

recommendations that we hope will assist you in the process of obtaining an internship The

Internship Survey conducted by the CEMS Student Board in 2010 gives a good overview of the

industries in which students are most interested The results show that most students are

interested in internships in Strategic Consulting (21) Marketing amp Sales (14)

FinanceAudit (10) the Energy sector (9) and the BankingInsurance industry (9)

The full analysis can be downloaded at

httpwwwcemsorgsitesdefaultfilesCEMSMIMcurriculumCEMS_Student_Board_Report

_on_Internships_2010pdf

Many students try to take advantage of the summer break to do an internship Nevertheless

depending on the studentsrsquo homehost school combination the summer break is often not 10

weeks long which forces students to undertake the internship at another period of time

However many internships last longer than 10 weeks with the study showing that many

students accept internships that last six months Another interesting point worth remembering

is that the first 10 weeks of full-time employment can be validated as a CEMS internship as

long as it is performed abroad

An issue faced by many students is visa and work permit requirements This problem varies

greatly from country to country which makes it difficult to give specific recommendations

Obtaining a visa for a 10-week internship can be very hard Therefore students often accept

longer internships or search for direct entry positions We recommend all students who need a

visa for their internship to make sure they gather all the necessary information on visa and

work permit requirements of the country of their interest well in advance Also in order to

eliminate the visawork permit issue you may consider being hired locally for a graduate

programme that will enable you to travel internally within the company Please bear in mind

that some companies do not provide assistance in obtaining a visawork permit

To increase the chances of being hired for an internship 12 of students start searching 8-10

months ahead of time 22 begin applying 6-7 months in advance while 42 start 3-5 months

in advance Naturally the earlier you start and the more applications you send the greater

opportunities you have The most frequently used sources are companiesrsquo websites internet

job portals and established contacts

According to the Internship Survey conducted by the Student Board what students find most

difficult is the primary searching process and passing the initial screening Therefore it is in

your best interest to put more time and energy into mastering these processes Make use of

the career services offered at your schools and by CEMS It is advised to make good use of

the resources that CEMS provides JobMarket and Career Forum (career guidance sessions

career related skill seminars organised in conjunction with the Career Forum) Also take

advantage of the Official CEMS Group on LinkedIn (reserved for and administrated by CEMS

students and alumni) in order to get in touch with fellow students and alumni to

understand how they managed to find their internship or job Make the most of the great

networking opportunities the CEMS alliance offers

CEMS Corporate Partners are a good source for internships Yet be aware that between 1991

and 2010 the majority of internships were performed at non-Corporate Partners Therefore

apart from using contacts established with CEMS Corporate Partners during your MIM year

or at the Career Forum we also advise you to apply to non-Corporate Partners to increase

your chances of finding an internship

Legislation Legislative conditions for international students wishing to secure an internship in

Australia relate directly to the above statement concerning international student visas In

addition to this the Australian Government has different policies for each country within and

outside of the EU Therefore country-specific information should be acquired from the

Australian Government Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) website at

httpwwwimmigovau

International student visas DIAC have extremely complex rules and regulations relating to

international student visas which are subject to frequent legislative changes Visa policy also

varies dependent upon the applicantrsquos country of citizenship or permanent residency

11

For these reasons (and in line with university practice) the CEMS Office at the University of

Sydney does not provide written guidance in relation to visas Students are however directed

to the relevant DIAC website where the most up-to-date information and legislation can be

viewed

It is the responsibility of the incoming student to contact DIAC directly (either in person via

telephone or the internet) to research visa options and lodge applications on an individual

basis The CEMS Office at the University of Sydney can provide assistance in interpreting

government policy if required

Further information Australian Government Department of Immigration and Citizenship

size core business requirements at the time and their ability willingness to work within the

complex legal framework relating to the hiring of non-Australian residents

Prior to application for an internship it is strongly advised that students contact the relevant

department within the company that they wish to approach in order to determine whether the

company offers placement opportunities to international students

For graduates The Australian Government upholds very strict rules and regulations with

regards to permitting internationals to work in Australia Graduates not covered by a student

commitments within Australia

Legislation - Entry and residence regulations Nationals of EUEEA countries and Switzerland

who fulfil the requirements of sufficient financial means and of valid health insurance do not

need a visa and they enjoy freedom of domicile (Niederlassungsfreiheit) For entry into Austria

and residence they only need a valid travel document (passport or identity card)

If someone stays in Austria for longer than 3 months heshe has to register with the relevant

municipal authority (Magistrat Bezirkshauptmannschaft) within the first 3 months of the stay

and heshe will receive a confirmation of registration (EUR 1500 fee)

Nationals of non-EUEEA countries (so-called third-country nationals) need an entry or

residence permit for entry into and residence in Austria The type of permit depends on the

length and purpose of the stay Students from third countries need provided that they stay for

no longer than 6 months either

bull a travel visa C (Reisevisum C) for entry into and residence in Austria for a stay of a maximum

of 90 days (except students who are allowed to enter Austria without a visa)

bull a residence visa D (Aufenthaltsvisum D) for entry into and residence in Austria for a stay of at

least 91 days and a maximum of 6 months

13

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

DENMARK ndash COPENHAGEN BUSINESS SCHOOL

School support Vacant internships are mostly presented at a Job forum on the internal CBS

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

Further information There are no official sites dedicated to vacant internships in Denmark

Requested documents Residence and work permit proof of study at CBS up-to-date CV

For graduates A person can get an internship even after graduation from the home school

Information about the legislative conditions for receiving an internship in Finland can be

obtained from the website of the Finnish Immigration Office

httpwwwmigrifinetcommcontentasparticle=1965amplanguage=EN

httpwwwinfopankkifien-GBinto

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Legislation

For EU 17EFTA nationals working for less than 3 months per year the employer do not need to

apply for a work permit but need to notify the competent cantonal immigration authorities

before they start working For an internship with a duration of more than 3 months a work

permit needs to be applied for

For EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA nationals a work permit is needed for every work stay in

Switzerland irrespective of the duration

55

For mandatory internships being part of the study program EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA students

may obtain a work permit for the limited period of the internship with the confirmation of the

university that such is mandatory Alternatively they may obtain a work permit limited to the

semester break with the confirmation of the university that the job does not interfere with the

study program

Further information httpwwwswissemigrationchthemenschweizindexhtmllang=en

For the latest update please check our overview of work permit regulations in Switzerland on

wwwcscunisgch under ldquoServices for International Studentsrdquo

Requested documents The application process is usually initiated by the employer submitting

the necessary application documents to the competent authority in the canton of residence or

work of the applicant Depending on the canton this can be the Municipal Office the

Department for Migration or the Department for Commerce

usually include a copy of the employment contract (salary and working conditions have to be in

line with country and industry standards) a passport photograph a copy of the passport CV

and diplomas of the applicant confirmation of the university that internship is mandatory

Company support The interest of companies to offer international students an internship

varies from company to company and depends on their business model and internal guidelines

Another factor is whether they are prepared to take the extra effort to go through the work

permit application process

As of 9 September 2011 Students wishing to graduate in December 2012 from the CEMS MIM Programme must start the

CEMS internship latest on 3 September 2012 An internship evaluation form must be handed in

to the home school by 15 October even if the internship has not been ended (page 5)

Legislation In Brazil Due to recent changes on the legislation of the Brazilian Student Visa it

is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

FOREWORD Dear CEMS Student

The following CEMS Internship Guide 20112012 has been prepared for your

CEMS INTERNSHIP ABROAD

Internships provide students with the real-life professional learning experience of integrating

an organisationrsquos culture and processes The main objective is to turn academic experience

and theoretical knowledge into a professional multi-cultural experience They must

therefore be at the level of a graduate recruit in order to provide valuable business

experience Internships can take place at a CEMS Corporate Partner although not on a

compulsory basis They can also take place at a non-profit organisation such as in a

company (the first 10 weeks of a full-time employment position are also accepted)

bull Internships can take place at any time (also prior to CEMS selection) except parallel to

RECCOMENDATIONS BY

Denisa Zichackova (Corporate Services Manager CEMS Head Office) and Fredrik Alhberg

(Vice-President CEMS Student Board 2011)

Given the importance of the internship in the CEMS curriculum we would like to make some

recommendations that we hope will assist you in the process of obtaining an internship The

Internship Survey conducted by the CEMS Student Board in 2010 gives a good overview of the

industries in which students are most interested The results show that most students are

interested in internships in Strategic Consulting (21) Marketing amp Sales (14)

FinanceAudit (10) the Energy sector (9) and the BankingInsurance industry (9)

The full analysis can be downloaded at

httpwwwcemsorgsitesdefaultfilesCEMSMIMcurriculumCEMS_Student_Board_Report

_on_Internships_2010pdf

Many students try to take advantage of the summer break to do an internship Nevertheless

depending on the studentsrsquo homehost school combination the summer break is often not 10

weeks long which forces students to undertake the internship at another period of time

However many internships last longer than 10 weeks with the study showing that many

students accept internships that last six months Another interesting point worth remembering

is that the first 10 weeks of full-time employment can be validated as a CEMS internship as

long as it is performed abroad

An issue faced by many students is visa and work permit requirements This problem varies

greatly from country to country which makes it difficult to give specific recommendations

Obtaining a visa for a 10-week internship can be very hard Therefore students often accept

longer internships or search for direct entry positions We recommend all students who need a

visa for their internship to make sure they gather all the necessary information on visa and

work permit requirements of the country of their interest well in advance Also in order to

eliminate the visawork permit issue you may consider being hired locally for a graduate

programme that will enable you to travel internally within the company Please bear in mind

that some companies do not provide assistance in obtaining a visawork permit

To increase the chances of being hired for an internship 12 of students start searching 8-10

months ahead of time 22 begin applying 6-7 months in advance while 42 start 3-5 months

in advance Naturally the earlier you start and the more applications you send the greater

opportunities you have The most frequently used sources are companiesrsquo websites internet

job portals and established contacts

According to the Internship Survey conducted by the Student Board what students find most

difficult is the primary searching process and passing the initial screening Therefore it is in

your best interest to put more time and energy into mastering these processes Make use of

the career services offered at your schools and by CEMS It is advised to make good use of

the resources that CEMS provides JobMarket and Career Forum (career guidance sessions

career related skill seminars organised in conjunction with the Career Forum) Also take

advantage of the Official CEMS Group on LinkedIn (reserved for and administrated by CEMS

students and alumni) in order to get in touch with fellow students and alumni to

understand how they managed to find their internship or job Make the most of the great

networking opportunities the CEMS alliance offers

CEMS Corporate Partners are a good source for internships Yet be aware that between 1991

and 2010 the majority of internships were performed at non-Corporate Partners Therefore

apart from using contacts established with CEMS Corporate Partners during your MIM year

or at the Career Forum we also advise you to apply to non-Corporate Partners to increase

your chances of finding an internship

Legislation Legislative conditions for international students wishing to secure an internship in

Australia relate directly to the above statement concerning international student visas In

international student visas which are subject to frequent legislative changes Visa policy also

to the relevant DIAC website where the most up-to-date information and legislation can be

viewed

It is the responsibility of the incoming student to contact DIAC directly (either in person via

telephone or the internet) to research visa options and lodge applications on an individual

basis The CEMS Office at the University of Sydney can provide assistance in interpreting

government policy if required

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Legislation In Brazil Due to recent changes on the legislation of the Brazilian Student Visa it

is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

FOREWORD Dear CEMS Student

company (the first 10 weeks of a full-time employment position are also accepted)

bull Internships can take place at any time (also prior to CEMS selection) except parallel to

bull Internships have to be an intercultural experience and thus need to be carried out

RECCOMENDATIONS BY

Denisa Zichackova (Corporate Services Manager CEMS Head Office) and Fredrik Alhberg

(Vice-President CEMS Student Board 2011)

Given the importance of the internship in the CEMS curriculum we would like to make some

recommendations that we hope will assist you in the process of obtaining an internship The

Internship Survey conducted by the CEMS Student Board in 2010 gives a good overview of the

industries in which students are most interested The results show that most students are

interested in internships in Strategic Consulting (21) Marketing amp Sales (14)

FinanceAudit (10) the Energy sector (9) and the BankingInsurance industry (9)

The full analysis can be downloaded at

httpwwwcemsorgsitesdefaultfilesCEMSMIMcurriculumCEMS_Student_Board_Report

_on_Internships_2010pdf

Many students try to take advantage of the summer break to do an internship Nevertheless

depending on the studentsrsquo homehost school combination the summer break is often not 10

weeks long which forces students to undertake the internship at another period of time

However many internships last longer than 10 weeks with the study showing that many

students accept internships that last six months Another interesting point worth remembering

is that the first 10 weeks of full-time employment can be validated as a CEMS internship as

long as it is performed abroad

An issue faced by many students is visa and work permit requirements This problem varies

greatly from country to country which makes it difficult to give specific recommendations

Obtaining a visa for a 10-week internship can be very hard Therefore students often accept

longer internships or search for direct entry positions We recommend all students who need a

visa for their internship to make sure they gather all the necessary information on visa and

work permit requirements of the country of their interest well in advance Also in order to

eliminate the visawork permit issue you may consider being hired locally for a graduate

programme that will enable you to travel internally within the company Please bear in mind

that some companies do not provide assistance in obtaining a visawork permit

To increase the chances of being hired for an internship 12 of students start searching 8-10

months ahead of time 22 begin applying 6-7 months in advance while 42 start 3-5 months

in advance Naturally the earlier you start and the more applications you send the greater

opportunities you have The most frequently used sources are companiesrsquo websites internet

job portals and established contacts

According to the Internship Survey conducted by the Student Board what students find most

difficult is the primary searching process and passing the initial screening Therefore it is in

your best interest to put more time and energy into mastering these processes Make use of

the career services offered at your schools and by CEMS It is advised to make good use of

the resources that CEMS provides JobMarket and Career Forum (career guidance sessions

career related skill seminars organised in conjunction with the Career Forum) Also take

advantage of the Official CEMS Group on LinkedIn (reserved for and administrated by CEMS

students and alumni) in order to get in touch with fellow students and alumni to

understand how they managed to find their internship or job Make the most of the great

networking opportunities the CEMS alliance offers

CEMS Corporate Partners are a good source for internships Yet be aware that between 1991

and 2010 the majority of internships were performed at non-Corporate Partners Therefore

apart from using contacts established with CEMS Corporate Partners during your MIM year

or at the Career Forum we also advise you to apply to non-Corporate Partners to increase

your chances of finding an internship

Legislation Legislative conditions for international students wishing to secure an internship in

Australia relate directly to the above statement concerning international student visas In

addition to this the Australian Government has different policies for each country within and

outside of the EU Therefore country-specific information should be acquired from the

Australian Government Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC) website at

httpwwwimmigovau

International student visas DIAC have extremely complex rules and regulations relating to

international student visas which are subject to frequent legislative changes Visa policy also

varies dependent upon the applicantrsquos country of citizenship or permanent residency

11

For these reasons (and in line with university practice) the CEMS Office at the University of

Sydney does not provide written guidance in relation to visas Students are however directed

to the relevant DIAC website where the most up-to-date information and legislation can be

viewed

It is the responsibility of the incoming student to contact DIAC directly (either in person via

telephone or the internet) to research visa options and lodge applications on an individual

basis The CEMS Office at the University of Sydney can provide assistance in interpreting

government policy if required

Further information Australian Government Department of Immigration and Citizenship

international student internships varies from company to company Factors include company

size core business requirements at the time and their ability willingness to work within the

complex legal framework relating to the hiring of non-Australian residents

Prior to application for an internship it is strongly advised that students contact the relevant

department within the company that they wish to approach in order to determine whether the

company offers placement opportunities to international students

For graduates The Australian Government upholds very strict rules and regulations with

regards to permitting internationals to work in Australia Graduates not covered by a student

visa are required to apply for the appropriate visa which would permit their proposed working

commitments within Australia

13

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

PORTUGAL ndash NOVA SCHOOL OF BUSINESS amp ECONOMICS

School support NOVA has developed two different but complementary approaches

a To explore with some of the main contact companies the possibility of internships in

Portugal for incoming students For example for the summer of 2011

a Millennium bcp is offering 1 internship in Portugal for a Polish student

b EDP is offering approximately 5 internships in Lisbon

b To individually assist CEMS students contacting NOVA with a specific internship project

(eg Internship in the Tourism area) This assistance consists in sending the CV to one or

several companies in Portugal the characteristics of which match the studentrsquos

internship project The school obviously offers assistance to students who are

individually contacting NOVA although no guarantees can be given

Contact CEMS Program Manager Elizabete Cardoso - ecardosonovasbept

Legislation Basically unlike other European countries there is no specific legislation relating

to salary benefits or duration for internships in companies in Portugal

A specific legislation with much more constraints applicable for all students including

Portuguese citizens exists for internships in the institutions that belong to the State

Requested documents The required documents for companies are the same as those required

for being a foreign student at NOVA

bull Visa

o EU citizens visa not required

o non EU citizens Student visa required for internships of 3 months or less

internship visa required for longer duration internships

bull Identity card or Passport required

For internships longer than 3 months and when the student receives a fixed salary (and not a

financial subsidy) a fiscal number (NIFNumero de identificaccedilatildeo fiscal) is required Foreigners

can request a non-residential fiscal number to obtain this a permanent Portuguese address is

needed for further contacts with fiscal administration

45

Company support Human Resources Departments usually inform non-EU interns if they need

to obtain a fiscal number according to the internships agreement

For graduates Residence documents are required for non-EU graduates A valid working visa

will be necessary as well depending on the country of origin No specific requirements for EU

graduates besides the obligation of having a fiscal number

Legislation The easiest way for the student to get an internship is to be registered at GSOM for

one semester which will provide himher a student visa and to get an internship with the help

of GSOM A student must keep in mind that in this case heshe will be provided with

accommodation in the GSOM dormitory but will not get any payment from the company for the

internship In this situation the students citizenship will not make any difference

a copy of their passport It is practically always required that a student should have insurance

in order to get a visa All other documents may vary in different countries

documents may be requiredrequested by the company directly

Company support This highly depends on the company and can vary greatly from one situation

to another

For graduates In this case the school can help to find the company but due to Russian

legislation cannot be of much help in terms of visa Much will also depend on the company

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

an organisationrsquos culture and processes The main objective is to turn academic experience

and theoretical knowledge into a professional multi-cultural experience They must

experience Internships can take place at a CEMS Corporate Partner although not on a

compulsory basis They can also take place at a non-profit organisation such as in a

humanitarian mission provided responsibility levels correspond

company (the first 10 weeks of a full-time employment position are also accepted)

bull Internships can take place at any time (also prior to CEMS selection) except parallel to

their studies during the two MIM terms

bull Internships have to be an intercultural experience and thus need to be carried out

RECCOMENDATIONS BY

Denisa Zichackova (Corporate Services Manager CEMS Head Office) and Fredrik Alhberg

(Vice-President CEMS Student Board 2011)

Given the importance of the internship in the CEMS curriculum we would like to make some

recommendations that we hope will assist you in the process of obtaining an internship The

Internship Survey conducted by the CEMS Student Board in 2010 gives a good overview of the

industries in which students are most interested The results show that most students are

interested in internships in Strategic Consulting (21) Marketing amp Sales (14)

FinanceAudit (10) the Energy sector (9) and the BankingInsurance industry (9)

The full analysis can be downloaded at

httpwwwcemsorgsitesdefaultfilesCEMSMIMcurriculumCEMS_Student_Board_Report

_on_Internships_2010pdf

Many students try to take advantage of the summer break to do an internship Nevertheless

depending on the studentsrsquo homehost school combination the summer break is often not 10

weeks long which forces students to undertake the internship at another period of time

However many internships last longer than 10 weeks with the study showing that many

students accept internships that last six months Another interesting point worth remembering

is that the first 10 weeks of full-time employment can be validated as a CEMS internship as

long as it is performed abroad

An issue faced by many students is visa and work permit requirements This problem varies

greatly from country to country which makes it difficult to give specific recommendations

Obtaining a visa for a 10-week internship can be very hard Therefore students often accept

longer internships or search for direct entry positions We recommend all students who need a

visa for their internship to make sure they gather all the necessary information on visa and

work permit requirements of the country of their interest well in advance Also in order to

eliminate the visawork permit issue you may consider being hired locally for a graduate

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

School support FGV-EAESP Placement Office helps students in finding an internship It also

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

Cecilia Noronha ndash Cecilianoronhafgvbr and Christiane Nagayassu ndash cecopfgvbr

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

graduation internships that last max 6 months

In that case the company can sign the documents provided by the home university or can pay

especially if the student is an EU citizen

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

RECCOMENDATIONS BY

Denisa Zichackova (Corporate Services Manager CEMS Head Office) and Fredrik Alhberg

(Vice-President CEMS Student Board 2011)

Given the importance of the internship in the CEMS curriculum we would like to make some

recommendations that we hope will assist you in the process of obtaining an internship The

Internship Survey conducted by the CEMS Student Board in 2010 gives a good overview of the

industries in which students are most interested The results show that most students are

interested in internships in Strategic Consulting (21) Marketing amp Sales (14)

FinanceAudit (10) the Energy sector (9) and the BankingInsurance industry (9)

The full analysis can be downloaded at

httpwwwcemsorgsitesdefaultfilesCEMSMIMcurriculumCEMS_Student_Board_Report

_on_Internships_2010pdf

Many students try to take advantage of the summer break to do an internship Nevertheless

depending on the studentsrsquo homehost school combination the summer break is often not 10

weeks long which forces students to undertake the internship at another period of time

However many internships last longer than 10 weeks with the study showing that many

students accept internships that last six months Another interesting point worth remembering

is that the first 10 weeks of full-time employment can be validated as a CEMS internship as

long as it is performed abroad

An issue faced by many students is visa and work permit requirements This problem varies

greatly from country to country which makes it difficult to give specific recommendations

Obtaining a visa for a 10-week internship can be very hard Therefore students often accept

longer internships or search for direct entry positions We recommend all students who need a

visa for their internship to make sure they gather all the necessary information on visa and

work permit requirements of the country of their interest well in advance Also in order to

eliminate the visawork permit issue you may consider being hired locally for a graduate

programme that will enable you to travel internally within the company Please bear in mind

that some companies do not provide assistance in obtaining a visawork permit

To increase the chances of being hired for an internship 12 of students start searching 8-10

months ahead of time 22 begin applying 6-7 months in advance while 42 start 3-5 months

in advance Naturally the earlier you start and the more applications you send the greater

opportunities you have The most frequently used sources are companiesrsquo websites internet

job portals and established contacts

According to the Internship Survey conducted by the Student Board what students find most

difficult is the primary searching process and passing the initial screening Therefore it is in

your best interest to put more time and energy into mastering these processes Make use of

the career services offered at your schools and by CEMS It is advised to make good use of

the resources that CEMS provides JobMarket and Career Forum (career guidance sessions

career related skill seminars organised in conjunction with the Career Forum) Also take

advantage of the Official CEMS Group on LinkedIn (reserved for and administrated by CEMS

students and alumni) in order to get in touch with fellow students and alumni to

understand how they managed to find their internship or job Make the most of the great

networking opportunities the CEMS alliance offers

CEMS Corporate Partners are a good source for internships Yet be aware that between 1991

and 2010 the majority of internships were performed at non-Corporate Partners Therefore

apart from using contacts established with CEMS Corporate Partners during your MIM year

or at the Career Forum we also advise you to apply to non-Corporate Partners to increase

your chances of finding an internship

international student visas which are subject to frequent legislative changes Visa policy also

varies dependent upon the applicantrsquos country of citizenship or permanent residency

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

BRAZIL - ESCOLA DE ADMINISTRACcedilAtildeO DE EMPRESAS DE SAtildeO PAULO-FGV

School support FGV-EAESP Placement Office helps students in finding an internship It also

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

important to note that in Brazil internships are perceived as a first step to a full-time job For

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

PORTUGAL ndash NOVA SCHOOL OF BUSINESS amp ECONOMICS

School support NOVA has developed two different but complementary approaches

a To explore with some of the main contact companies the possibility of internships in

Portugal for incoming students For example for the summer of 2011

a Millennium bcp is offering 1 internship in Portugal for a Polish student

b EDP is offering approximately 5 internships in Lisbon

b To individually assist CEMS students contacting NOVA with a specific internship project

(eg Internship in the Tourism area) This assistance consists in sending the CV to one or

several companies in Portugal the characteristics of which match the studentrsquos

internship project The school obviously offers assistance to students who are

individually contacting NOVA although no guarantees can be given

Contact CEMS Program Manager Elizabete Cardoso - ecardosonovasbept

Legislation Basically unlike other European countries there is no specific legislation relating

to salary benefits or duration for internships in companies in Portugal

A specific legislation with much more constraints applicable for all students including

Portuguese citizens exists for internships in the institutions that belong to the State

Requested documents The required documents for companies are the same as those required

for being a foreign student at NOVA

bull Visa

o EU citizens visa not required

o non EU citizens Student visa required for internships of 3 months or less

internship visa required for longer duration internships

bull Identity card or Passport required

For internships longer than 3 months and when the student receives a fixed salary (and not a

financial subsidy) a fiscal number (NIFNumero de identificaccedilatildeo fiscal) is required Foreigners

can request a non-residential fiscal number to obtain this a permanent Portuguese address is

needed for further contacts with fiscal administration

45

Company support Human Resources Departments usually inform non-EU interns if they need

to obtain a fiscal number according to the internships agreement

For graduates Residence documents are required for non-EU graduates A valid working visa

will be necessary as well depending on the country of origin No specific requirements for EU

graduates besides the obligation of having a fiscal number

Legislation The easiest way for the student to get an internship is to be registered at GSOM for

one semester which will provide himher a student visa and to get an internship with the help

documents may be requiredrequested by the company directly

Company support This highly depends on the company and can vary greatly from one situation

to another

For graduates In this case the school can help to find the company but due to Russian

legislation cannot be of much help in terms of visa Much will also depend on the company

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

RECCOMENDATIONS BY

Denisa Zichackova (Corporate Services Manager CEMS Head Office) and Fredrik Alhberg

(Vice-President CEMS Student Board 2011)

Given the importance of the internship in the CEMS curriculum we would like to make some

recommendations that we hope will assist you in the process of obtaining an internship The

Internship Survey conducted by the CEMS Student Board in 2010 gives a good overview of the

industries in which students are most interested The results show that most students are

interested in internships in Strategic Consulting (21) Marketing amp Sales (14)

FinanceAudit (10) the Energy sector (9) and the BankingInsurance industry (9)

The full analysis can be downloaded at

httpwwwcemsorgsitesdefaultfilesCEMSMIMcurriculumCEMS_Student_Board_Report

_on_Internships_2010pdf

Many students try to take advantage of the summer break to do an internship Nevertheless

depending on the studentsrsquo homehost school combination the summer break is often not 10

weeks long which forces students to undertake the internship at another period of time

However many internships last longer than 10 weeks with the study showing that many

students accept internships that last six months Another interesting point worth remembering

is that the first 10 weeks of full-time employment can be validated as a CEMS internship as

long as it is performed abroad

An issue faced by many students is visa and work permit requirements This problem varies

greatly from country to country which makes it difficult to give specific recommendations

Obtaining a visa for a 10-week internship can be very hard Therefore students often accept

longer internships or search for direct entry positions We recommend all students who need a

visa for their internship to make sure they gather all the necessary information on visa and

work permit requirements of the country of their interest well in advance Also in order to

eliminate the visawork permit issue you may consider being hired locally for a graduate

programme that will enable you to travel internally within the company Please bear in mind

that some companies do not provide assistance in obtaining a visawork permit

To increase the chances of being hired for an internship 12 of students start searching 8-10

months ahead of time 22 begin applying 6-7 months in advance while 42 start 3-5 months

in advance Naturally the earlier you start and the more applications you send the greater

opportunities you have The most frequently used sources are companiesrsquo websites internet

job portals and established contacts

According to the Internship Survey conducted by the Student Board what students find most

difficult is the primary searching process and passing the initial screening Therefore it is in

your best interest to put more time and energy into mastering these processes Make use of

the career services offered at your schools and by CEMS It is advised to make good use of

the resources that CEMS provides JobMarket and Career Forum (career guidance sessions

career related skill seminars organised in conjunction with the Career Forum) Also take

advantage of the Official CEMS Group on LinkedIn (reserved for and administrated by CEMS

students and alumni) in order to get in touch with fellow students and alumni to

understand how they managed to find their internship or job Make the most of the great

networking opportunities the CEMS alliance offers

CEMS Corporate Partners are a good source for internships Yet be aware that between 1991

apart from using contacts established with CEMS Corporate Partners during your MIM year

or at the Career Forum we also advise you to apply to non-Corporate Partners to increase

your chances of finding an internship

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

School support FGV-EAESP Placement Office helps students in finding an internship It also

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

important to note that in Brazil internships are perceived as a first step to a full-time job For

Contact Incoming students may contact FGV-EAESP Placement Office

Cecilia Noronha ndash Cecilianoronhafgvbr and Christiane Nagayassu ndash cecopfgvbr

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

visa autonomously EU students can do an internship in Italy at any time

stay at Bocconi and for the following 6 months

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

graduation internships that last max 6 months

In that case the company can sign the documents provided by the home university or can pay

especially if the student is an EU citizen

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Requested documents The application process is usually initiated by the employer submitting

the necessary application documents to the competent authority in the canton of residence or

work of the applicant Depending on the canton this can be the Municipal Office the

Department for Migration or the Department for Commerce

The documents required for the application are determined by the competent authority and

usually include a copy of the employment contract (salary and working conditions have to be in

line with country and industry standards) a passport photograph a copy of the passport CV

and diplomas of the applicant confirmation of the university that internship is mandatory

Company support The interest of companies to offer international students an internship

RECCOMENDATIONS BY

Denisa Zichackova (Corporate Services Manager CEMS Head Office) and Fredrik Alhberg

(Vice-President CEMS Student Board 2011)

Given the importance of the internship in the CEMS curriculum we would like to make some

recommendations that we hope will assist you in the process of obtaining an internship The

Internship Survey conducted by the CEMS Student Board in 2010 gives a good overview of the

industries in which students are most interested The results show that most students are

interested in internships in Strategic Consulting (21) Marketing amp Sales (14)

FinanceAudit (10) the Energy sector (9) and the BankingInsurance industry (9)

The full analysis can be downloaded at

httpwwwcemsorgsitesdefaultfilesCEMSMIMcurriculumCEMS_Student_Board_Report

_on_Internships_2010pdf

Many students try to take advantage of the summer break to do an internship Nevertheless

depending on the studentsrsquo homehost school combination the summer break is often not 10

weeks long which forces students to undertake the internship at another period of time

However many internships last longer than 10 weeks with the study showing that many

students accept internships that last six months Another interesting point worth remembering

is that the first 10 weeks of full-time employment can be validated as a CEMS internship as

long as it is performed abroad

An issue faced by many students is visa and work permit requirements This problem varies

greatly from country to country which makes it difficult to give specific recommendations

Obtaining a visa for a 10-week internship can be very hard Therefore students often accept

longer internships or search for direct entry positions We recommend all students who need a

visa for their internship to make sure they gather all the necessary information on visa and

work permit requirements of the country of their interest well in advance Also in order to

eliminate the visawork permit issue you may consider being hired locally for a graduate

programme that will enable you to travel internally within the company Please bear in mind

that some companies do not provide assistance in obtaining a visawork permit

To increase the chances of being hired for an internship 12 of students start searching 8-10

months ahead of time 22 begin applying 6-7 months in advance while 42 start 3-5 months

in advance Naturally the earlier you start and the more applications you send the greater

opportunities you have The most frequently used sources are companiesrsquo websites internet

job portals and established contacts

According to the Internship Survey conducted by the Student Board what students find most

difficult is the primary searching process and passing the initial screening Therefore it is in

your best interest to put more time and energy into mastering these processes Make use of

the career services offered at your schools and by CEMS It is advised to make good use of

the resources that CEMS provides JobMarket and Career Forum (career guidance sessions

career related skill seminars organised in conjunction with the Career Forum) Also take

advantage of the Official CEMS Group on LinkedIn (reserved for and administrated by CEMS

students and alumni) in order to get in touch with fellow students and alumni to

understand how they managed to find their internship or job Make the most of the great

networking opportunities the CEMS alliance offers

CEMS Corporate Partners are a good source for internships Yet be aware that between 1991

and 2010 the majority of internships were performed at non-Corporate Partners Therefore

apart from using contacts established with CEMS Corporate Partners during your MIM year

or at the Career Forum we also advise you to apply to non-Corporate Partners to increase

your chances of finding an internship

Legislation Legislative conditions for international students wishing to secure an internship in

international student visas which are subject to frequent legislative changes Visa policy also

varies dependent upon the applicantrsquos country of citizenship or permanent residency

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

profiles and vice versa

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

your application at least four weeks before you plan to travel

All the information about visas for Belgium can be found on the web site of the FPS Foreign

Affairs You can also always ask for information at the local Belgian embassy or consulate

School support FGV-EAESP Placement Office helps students in finding an internship It also

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

important to note that in Brazil internships are perceived as a first step to a full-time job For

instance an intern works 4 5 or 6 hours per day for a period of 6 up to 18 months

Contact Incoming students may contact FGV-EAESP Placement Office

Cecilia Noronha ndash Cecilianoronhafgvbr and Christiane Nagayassu ndash cecopfgvbr

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

is necessary in order to do an internship in Italy

documentation required by regulations (covenant internship document and end-of-internship

forms) The student must take the documentation to the employer

graduation internships that last max 6 months

an agency (such as Sportello stage a very popular and inexpensive service

httpwwwsportellostageit ) or use a public organisation The procedure is fairly simple

especially if the student is an EU citizen

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

13

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

School support FGV-EAESP Placement Office helps students in finding an internship It also

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

Cecilia Noronha ndash Cecilianoronhafgvbr and Christiane Nagayassu ndash cecopfgvbr

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

httpwwwmigrifinetcommcontentasparticle=1965amplanguage=EN

httpwwwinfopankkifien-GBinto

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

For graduates A person can get an internship in Finland even after graduating from the home

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

BRAZIL - ESCOLA DE ADMINISTRACcedilAtildeO DE EMPRESAS DE SAtildeO PAULO-FGV

School support FGV-EAESP Placement Office helps students in finding an internship It also

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

important to note that in Brazil internships are perceived as a first step to a full-time job For

instance an intern works 4 5 or 6 hours per day for a period of 6 up to 18 months

Contact Incoming students may contact FGV-EAESP Placement Office

Cecilia Noronha ndash Cecilianoronhafgvbr and Christiane Nagayassu ndash cecopfgvbr

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

Legislation Internships in Italy are regulated by existing laws (law no 196 article 18 of 24th

June 1997 and the related decree no 142 introduced on 25th March 1998) and by the

university itself

In all cases a covenant must be signed between the company and the university and an

internship document among the company the university and the student

Non EU in-coming students are allowed to do an internship in Italy during their stay as long as

they are student visa holders Once their student visa expires they have to obtain a working

visa autonomously EU students can do an internship in Italy at any time

Bocconi University supports in-coming CEMS students in formalising their internship during their

stay at Bocconi and for the following 6 months

Further information

wwwitaliagovit

wwwtransitionsabroadcompublicationsmagazine0503internships_in_italyshtml

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

Those documents are also mandatory for acquiring the insurance coverage from Bocconi which

is necessary in order to do an internship in Italy

36

Before the beginning of the internship students must ask the Internship Office for the

documentation required by regulations (covenant internship document and end-of-internship

forms) The student must take the documentation to the employer

Upon completion of the internship students must present the Internship Office with the end-of-

internship forms final evaluation final report and internship completion certificate plus CEMS

For graduates Graduates can do an internship in Italy within 18 months of graduation Bocconi

University supports graduate students who have studied in Bocconi in formalising post-

graduation internships that last max 6 months

In that case the company can sign the documents provided by the home university or can pay

an agency (such as Sportello stage a very popular and inexpensive service

httpwwwsportellostageit ) or use a public organisation The procedure is fairly simple

especially if the student is an EU citizen

JAPAN ndash KEIO UNIVERSITY

students in providing basic information about visa procedures and in obtaining the necessary

certificates to apply for a ldquoChange of Status of Residence (See below)rdquo

Legislation If you intend to take up an internship during the holidays right after you finish

studying as a CEMS incoming student at Keio University you should obtain a ldquoDesignated

Activitiesrdquo status by applying for a ldquoChange of Status of Residencerdquo Since it will take 1~3

months to complete a change of status you should be thinking ahead about when you should

apply for this change of status The following points are particularly important factors that may

affect the timing of your application

1) CEMS schools have different starting dates for their academic semesters If your plan to take

up an internship in Japan during the holidays after your semester at Keio make sure there is

enough time to allow you to complete the internship requirement of more than 10 consecutive

weeks in Japan AND start the following semester at your home school (or another CEMS school

abroad) on time

2) You need to have a job offer by the time you make the application for a ldquoChange of Status of

Residencerdquo This may require you to have a job offer as soon as you arrive at Keio which

means that you may need to look for an internshipjob at a company in Japan before you come

to Keio University

To apply for a ldquoChange of Status of Residencerdquo

(1) Go to httpwwwimmi-mojgojpenglishtetudukiindexhtml

(2) Click ldquoList of Necessary Documentsrdquo and then Click ldquoApplication for change of status of

residencerdquo

38

(3) Follow the instructions on the page (Choose ldquoOther Purposesrdquo for the appropriate

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

profiles and vice versa

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

need a visa and they enjoy freedom of domicile (Niederlassungsfreiheit) For entry into Austria

and residence they only need a valid travel document (passport or identity card)

If someone stays in Austria for longer than 3 months heshe has to register with the relevant

municipal authority (Magistrat Bezirkshauptmannschaft) within the first 3 months of the stay

and heshe will receive a confirmation of registration (EUR 1500 fee)

Nationals of non-EUEEA countries (so-called third-country nationals) need an entry or

residence permit for entry into and residence in Austria The type of permit depends on the

length and purpose of the stay Students from third countries need provided that they stay for

no longer than 6 months either

bull a travel visa C (Reisevisum C) for entry into and residence in Austria for a stay of a maximum

of 90 days (except students who are allowed to enter Austria without a visa)

bull a residence visa D (Aufenthaltsvisum D) for entry into and residence in Austria for a stay of at

least 91 days and a maximum of 6 months

13

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

live

Belgian Embassy which had been appointed for your country This is usually in a neighbouring

country

In some cases the visa application procedure may take a long time You are advised to make

your application at least four weeks before you plan to travel

All the information about visas for Belgium can be found on the web site of the FPS Foreign

Affairs You can also always ask for information at the local Belgian embassy or consulate

Other types of residence status

BRAZIL - ESCOLA DE ADMINISTRACcedilAtildeO DE EMPRESAS DE SAtildeO PAULO-FGV

School support FGV-EAESP Placement Office helps students in finding an internship It also

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

important to note that in Brazil internships are perceived as a first step to a full-time job For

instance an intern works 4 5 or 6 hours per day for a period of 6 up to 18 months

Contact Incoming students may contact FGV-EAESP Placement Office

Cecilia Noronha ndash Cecilianoronhafgvbr and Christiane Nagayassu ndash cecopfgvbr

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Working in Austria

The possibility for foreign students to take up gainful employment in Austria depends on their

nationality the kind of employment and - for third country nationals - on the type of this title

bull Nationals of Belgium Denmark Germany Finland France Greece Great Britain Ireland

Iceland Italy Liechtenstein Luxembourg Malta Netherlands Norway Portugal Sweden

Spain Cyprus or Switzerland are allowed to work in Austria without any further permit (eg

work permit) being required

bull Nationals of Bulgaria Czech Republic Estonia Hungary Latvia Lithuania Poland Romania

Slovakia and Slovenia however still need a work permit because of transitional arrangements

(except for employment which is not subject to the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing

Employment of Foreign Nationals)

bull Students from all other countries (third countries) who are in possession of a valid residence

permit for study purposes (Aufenthaltsbewilligung Studierender) are allowed to work to a

limited extent and by respecting the regulations of the Austrian Act Governing Employment of

Foreign Nationals (Auslaumlnderbeschaumlftigungsgesetz - AuslBG) which as a rule require a work

permit Students must pay close attention to the following regulations since violation of these

regulations may lead to severe fines and to the imposition of a ban on residence In case of any

doubt students can enquire at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) or at an

advisory organisation before taking up a job

There are two different types of employment to be distinguished but both may not affect the

study progress (the studies have to be the primary purpose of staying in Austria)

1 Employment with employment-contract (unselbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

1a temporary employees (befristet beschaumlftigte Fremde) for a maximum duration of three

months per calendar year (primarily in tourism and agricultural and forestry enterprises) The

pre-requisite for this type of employment is a work permit which has to be applied for by the

14

employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case the

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

School support FGV-EAESP Placement Office helps students in finding an internship It also

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

Contact Incoming students may contact FGV-EAESP Placement Office

Cecilia Noronha ndash Cecilianoronhafgvbr and Christiane Nagayassu ndash cecopfgvbr

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

httpwwwmigrifinetcommcontentasparticle=1965amplanguage=EN

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

they are student visa holders Once their student visa expires they have to obtain a working

visa autonomously EU students can do an internship in Italy at any time

stay at Bocconi and for the following 6 months

Further information

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

Those documents are also mandatory for acquiring the insurance coverage from Bocconi which

is necessary in order to do an internship in Italy

36

Before the beginning of the internship students must ask the Internship Office for the

documentation required by regulations (covenant internship document and end-of-internship

forms) The student must take the documentation to the employer

graduation internships that last max 6 months

In that case the company can sign the documents provided by the home university or can pay

an agency (such as Sportello stage a very popular and inexpensive service

httpwwwsportellostageit ) or use a public organisation The procedure is fairly simple

especially if the student is an EU citizen

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

duration of the employment is limited (maximum of 3 months) but not the amount student may

earn

1b minimum income worker limited to an income of EUR 35747 per month (status of 2009)

The prerequisite for this type of employment is also a work permit which has to be applied for

by the employer at the employment office (ArbeitsmarktserviceAMS) in advance In this case

the amount the student may earn is limited but not the duration of the employment

ad 1a +1b Please note that work permits are only granted in a limited number in consideration

of the Austrian labour market and if the job cannot be filled by a jobless Austrian or integrated

foreign worker

1c special cases eg unpaid trainees (Volontaumlre) or vocational internships (Berufspraktika)

Unpaid trainees are persons who are employed for up to three months per calendar year

exclusively for the purpose of acquiring practical knowledge and skills without commitment to

work and without any right to remuneration A vocational internship is an employment

(practical training) which is required by the study plan of an Austrian educational institution

with public status In both cases no work permit is required but the employer has to notify the

employment office (Arbeitsmarktservice) and the competent authority for taxes

(Abgabenbehoumlrde) at least 2 weeks before the beginning of the employment

2 Self-employment (selbstaumlndige Erwerbstaumltigkeit)

May be based on a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) No work permit is necessary for

this type of work Please pay attention to legal regulations on social insurance taxation and

trade law

Please note the difference between an employment contract (Dienstvertrag) and a contract for

work and labour (Werkvertrag) (not the name of the contract is relevant but the type of work

that is actually carried out)

bull An employment contract obliges someone to personal repeated and regular presence and

work in a fixed place of work (eg Monday to Thursday 900 to 1200 on the premises of X

15

company in Vienna) and you have to strictly follow the instructions of the employer You are

integrated into the organisation of your employer You are paid according to the hours you

work Your employer is obliged to report your employment to National Insurance for the

duration of your employment and to deduct the appropriate taxes from your salary

bull In the case of a contract for work and labour you only owe your employer the supply of a

specified serviceresult (eg addressing of 1000 envelopes) in carrying out this job you are not

bound to fixed working hours andor a fixed place of work (this means that you can carry out

the work for example at your home) or even have it carried out by somebody else You are only

paid for the tasksfor the result you accomplish With a contract for work and labour you will ndash

being self-employed ndash not be insured with National Insurance by your employer nor will heshe

deduct taxes Of both these things you have to take care yourself

Please note Since it is often difficult to determine whether a work contract is an employment

contract (Dienstvertrag) or a contract for work and labour (Werkvertrag) this however being

crucial to whether you need a work permit or not please make sure to enquire at the Chamber

of Labour the employment office or an advice institution before taking up a job

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

httpwwwmigrifinetcommcontentasparticle=1965amplanguage=EN

httpwwwinfopankkifien-GBinto

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

For graduates A person can get an internship in Finland even after graduating from the home

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

For graduates A person can get an internship in Finland even after graduating from the home

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

apply for a work permit but need to notify the competent cantonal immigration authorities

before they start working For an internship with a duration of more than 3 months a work

permit needs to be applied for

For EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA nationals a work permit is needed for every work stay in

Switzerland irrespective of the duration

55

For mandatory internships being part of the study program EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA students

may obtain a work permit for the limited period of the internship with the confirmation of the

university that such is mandatory Alternatively they may obtain a work permit limited to the

semester break with the confirmation of the university that the job does not interfere with the

study program

For the latest update please check our overview of work permit regulations in Switzerland on

wwwcscunisgch under ldquoServices for International Studentsrdquo

the necessary application documents to the competent authority in the canton of residence or

work of the applicant Depending on the canton this can be the Municipal Office the

usually include a copy of the employment contract (salary and working conditions have to be in

line with country and industry standards) a passport photograph a copy of the passport CV

and diplomas of the applicant confirmation of the university that internship is mandatory

Another factor is whether they are prepared to take the extra effort to go through the work

permit application process

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

For graduates A person can get an internship in Finland even after graduating from the home

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

permit needs to be applied for

For EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA nationals a work permit is needed for every work stay in

Switzerland irrespective of the duration

may obtain a work permit for the limited period of the internship with the confirmation of the

university that such is mandatory Alternatively they may obtain a work permit limited to the

semester break with the confirmation of the university that the job does not interfere with the

study program

usually include a copy of the employment contract (salary and working conditions have to be in

line with country and industry standards) a passport photograph a copy of the passport CV

and diplomas of the applicant confirmation of the university that internship is mandatory

School support FGV-EAESP Placement Office helps students in finding an internship It also

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

important to note that in Brazil internships are perceived as a first step to a full-time job For

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

Information about the legislative conditions for receiving an internship in Finland can be

obtained from the website of the Finnish Immigration Office

httpwwwmigrifinetcommcontentasparticle=1965amplanguage=EN

httpwwwinfopankkifien-GBinto

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

For graduates A person can get an internship in Finland even after graduating from the home

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

apply for a work permit but need to notify the competent cantonal immigration authorities

before they start working For an internship with a duration of more than 3 months a work

permit needs to be applied for

For EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA nationals a work permit is needed for every work stay in

Switzerland irrespective of the duration

55

For mandatory internships being part of the study program EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA students

may obtain a work permit for the limited period of the internship with the confirmation of the

university that such is mandatory Alternatively they may obtain a work permit limited to the

semester break with the confirmation of the university that the job does not interfere with the

study program

Further information httpwwwswissemigrationchthemenschweizindexhtmllang=en

For the latest update please check our overview of work permit regulations in Switzerland on

wwwcscunisgch under ldquoServices for International Studentsrdquo

the necessary application documents to the competent authority in the canton of residence or

work of the applicant Depending on the canton this can be the Municipal Office the

usually include a copy of the employment contract (salary and working conditions have to be in

line with country and industry standards) a passport photograph a copy of the passport CV

and diplomas of the applicant confirmation of the university that internship is mandatory

Company support The interest of companies to offer international students an internship

varies from company to company and depends on their business model and internal guidelines

Another factor is whether they are prepared to take the extra effort to go through the work

permit application process

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

BRAZIL - ESCOLA DE ADMINISTRACcedilAtildeO DE EMPRESAS DE SAtildeO PAULO-FGV

School support FGV-EAESP Placement Office helps students in finding an internship It also

provides individual orientation to incoming students including company contacts CVs etc It is

important to note that in Brazil internships are perceived as a first step to a full-time job For

instance an intern works 4 5 or 6 hours per day for a period of 6 up to 18 months

Contact Incoming students may contact FGV-EAESP Placement Office

Cecilia Noronha ndash Cecilianoronhafgvbr and Christiane Nagayassu ndash cecopfgvbr

Legislation (Published on 9 September 2012) Due to recent changes on the legislation of the

Brazilian Student Visa it is no longer allowed to attend an internship in Brazil with a common

Student Visa

From now on in order to attend an internship in Brazil students must obtain the Brazilian

Internship Visa (RN88 or RN94) The process of obtaining an Internship Visa requires that the

foreign student must supply an internship contract with a Brazilian company at the moment

when applying for the visa at a Brazilian consulate or embassy

In case students are not able to find an internship before coming to Brazil but they succeed on

finding an offer after arriving here they will have to travel back to their country of origin and

apply for the Internship Visa (Changing their Student Visa status to Internship Visa status)

Unfortunately the latter requirement implies that the foreign student has to cover additional

costs in order to have the legal right to study and attend an internship in Brazil

Documents required valid identification card or passport proof of a health insurance policy

covering all the necessary costs and confirmation of admission by the university

Once the student and company agree on the internship FGV-EAESP provides the necessary

documents plus the internship contract which has to be signed by the three parties student

FGV-EAESP and company representative

This contract is only valid during the time the student is regularly attending FGV

20

Company support FGV-EAESP counts on the support of CEMS corporate partners through its

subsidiaries in Brazil

For graduates Graduates who have no student status any more cannot do an internship in

Brazil

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

stay at Bocconi and for the following 6 months

Further information

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

is necessary in order to do an internship in Italy

Before the beginning of the internship students must ask the Internship Office for the

documentation required by regulations (covenant internship document and end-of-internship

forms) The student must take the documentation to the employer

graduation internships that last max 6 months

In that case the company can sign the documents provided by the home university or can pay

httpwwwsportellostageit ) or use a public organisation The procedure is fairly simple

especially if the student is an EU citizen

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

before they start working For an internship with a duration of more than 3 months a work

permit needs to be applied for

For EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA nationals a work permit is needed for every work stay in

Switzerland irrespective of the duration

For mandatory internships being part of the study program EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA students

may obtain a work permit for the limited period of the internship with the confirmation of the

university that such is mandatory Alternatively they may obtain a work permit limited to the

semester break with the confirmation of the university that the job does not interfere with the

study program

the necessary application documents to the competent authority in the canton of residence or

work of the applicant Depending on the canton this can be the Municipal Office the

usually include a copy of the employment contract (salary and working conditions have to be in

line with country and industry standards) a passport photograph a copy of the passport CV

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

Contact CEMS Corporate Relations Manager Rachele Raineri (racheleraineriunibocconiit)

Legislation Internships in Italy are regulated by existing laws (law no 196 article 18 of 24th

June 1997 and the related decree no 142 introduced on 25th March 1998) and by the

university itself

In all cases a covenant must be signed between the company and the university and an

internship document among the company the university and the student

Non EU in-coming students are allowed to do an internship in Italy during their stay as long as

they are student visa holders Once their student visa expires they have to obtain a working

visa autonomously EU students can do an internship in Italy at any time

Bocconi University supports in-coming CEMS students in formalising their internship during their

stay at Bocconi and for the following 6 months

Further information

wwwitaliagovit

wwwtransitionsabroadcompublicationsmagazine0503internships_in_italyshtml

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

Those documents are also mandatory for acquiring the insurance coverage from Bocconi which

is necessary in order to do an internship in Italy

36

Before the beginning of the internship students must ask the Internship Office for the

documentation required by regulations (covenant internship document and end-of-internship

forms) The student must take the documentation to the employer

Upon completion of the internship students must present the Internship Office with the end-of-

internship forms final evaluation final report and internship completion certificate plus CEMS

evaluation form

Company support Companies usually provide foreign students with the same benefits that

they give to the Italians Italian laws donrsquot regulate the internship payment it is up to the

company to pay or not a salary to the intern

Every company has its own policies regarding payment and the working visa

For graduates Graduates can do an internship in Italy within 18 months of graduation Bocconi

University supports graduate students who have studied in Bocconi in formalising post-

graduation internships that last max 6 months

In that case the company can sign the documents provided by the home university or can pay

an agency (such as Sportello stage a very popular and inexpensive service

httpwwwsportellostageit ) or use a public organisation The procedure is fairly simple

especially if the student is an EU citizen

Legislation If you intend to take up an internship during the holidays right after you finish

studying as a CEMS incoming student at Keio University you should obtain a ldquoDesignated

Activitiesrdquo status by applying for a ldquoChange of Status of Residencerdquo Since it will take 1~3

months to complete a change of status you should be thinking ahead about when you should

apply for this change of status The following points are particularly important factors that may

affect the timing of your application

1) CEMS schools have different starting dates for their academic semesters If your plan to take

up an internship in Japan during the holidays after your semester at Keio make sure there is

enough time to allow you to complete the internship requirement of more than 10 consecutive

weeks in Japan AND start the following semester at your home school (or another CEMS school

abroad) on time

2) You need to have a job offer by the time you make the application for a ldquoChange of Status of

Residencerdquo This may require you to have a job offer as soon as you arrive at Keio which

means that you may need to look for an internshipjob at a company in Japan before you come

to Keio University

To apply for a ldquoChange of Status of Residencerdquo

(1) Go to httpwwwimmi-mojgojpenglishtetudukiindexhtml

(2) Click ldquoList of Necessary Documentsrdquo and then Click ldquoApplication for change of status of

residencerdquo

38

(3) Follow the instructions on the page (Choose ldquoOther Purposesrdquo for the appropriate

application form)

If you intend to take up an internship at a Japanese company without studying at Keio then

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

School support Vacant internships are mostly presented at a Job forum on the internal CBS

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

Further information There are no official sites dedicated to vacant internships in Denmark

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

PORTUGAL ndash NOVA SCHOOL OF BUSINESS amp ECONOMICS

School support NOVA has developed two different but complementary approaches

a To explore with some of the main contact companies the possibility of internships in

Portugal for incoming students For example for the summer of 2011

a Millennium bcp is offering 1 internship in Portugal for a Polish student

b EDP is offering approximately 5 internships in Lisbon

b To individually assist CEMS students contacting NOVA with a specific internship project

(eg Internship in the Tourism area) This assistance consists in sending the CV to one or

several companies in Portugal the characteristics of which match the studentrsquos

internship project The school obviously offers assistance to students who are

individually contacting NOVA although no guarantees can be given

Contact CEMS Program Manager Elizabete Cardoso - ecardosonovasbept

Legislation Basically unlike other European countries there is no specific legislation relating

to salary benefits or duration for internships in companies in Portugal

A specific legislation with much more constraints applicable for all students including

Portuguese citizens exists for internships in the institutions that belong to the State

Requested documents The required documents for companies are the same as those required

for being a foreign student at NOVA

bull Visa

o EU citizens visa not required

o non EU citizens Student visa required for internships of 3 months or less

internship visa required for longer duration internships

bull Identity card or Passport required

For internships longer than 3 months and when the student receives a fixed salary (and not a

financial subsidy) a fiscal number (NIFNumero de identificaccedilatildeo fiscal) is required Foreigners

can request a non-residential fiscal number to obtain this a permanent Portuguese address is

needed for further contacts with fiscal administration

45

Company support Human Resources Departments usually inform non-EU interns if they need

to obtain a fiscal number according to the internships agreement

For graduates Residence documents are required for non-EU graduates A valid working visa

will be necessary as well depending on the country of origin No specific requirements for EU

graduates besides the obligation of having a fiscal number

legislation cannot be of much help in terms of visa Much will also depend on the company

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

DENMARK ndash COPENHAGEN BUSINESS SCHOOL

School support Vacant internships are mostly presented at a Job forum on the internal CBS

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

Further information There are no official sites dedicated to vacant internships in Denmark

Information about the legislative conditions for receiving an internship in Finland can be

obtained from the website of the Finnish Immigration Office

httpwwwmigrifinetcommcontentasparticle=1965amplanguage=EN

httpwwwinfopankkifien-GBinto

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

apply for a work permit but need to notify the competent cantonal immigration authorities

before they start working For an internship with a duration of more than 3 months a work

permit needs to be applied for

For EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA nationals a work permit is needed for every work stay in

Switzerland irrespective of the duration

55

For mandatory internships being part of the study program EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA students

may obtain a work permit for the limited period of the internship with the confirmation of the

university that such is mandatory Alternatively they may obtain a work permit limited to the

semester break with the confirmation of the university that the job does not interfere with the

study program

Further information httpwwwswissemigrationchthemenschweizindexhtmllang=en

For the latest update please check our overview of work permit regulations in Switzerland on

wwwcscunisgch under ldquoServices for International Studentsrdquo

the necessary application documents to the competent authority in the canton of residence or

work of the applicant Depending on the canton this can be the Municipal Office the

Department for Migration or the Department for Commerce

usually include a copy of the employment contract (salary and working conditions have to be in

line with country and industry standards) a passport photograph a copy of the passport CV

and diplomas of the applicant confirmation of the university that internship is mandatory

Company support The interest of companies to offer international students an internship

varies from company to company and depends on their business model and internal guidelines

Another factor is whether they are prepared to take the extra effort to go through the work

permit application process

DENMARK ndash COPENHAGEN BUSINESS SCHOOL

School support Vacant internships are mostly presented at a Job forum on the internal CBS

home pages called e-campus Students find them here httpse-campusdkjobs

At CBS the Career Centre can help students in looking for an internship but it may be difficult

to place foreign students without Danish or Scandinavian language skills Another potential

problem is that there is really no tradition in the Danish business community for internships

except for the media industry instead companies employ students as part-time workers or

cooperate through study-based projects In the later years companies in the finance and

consulting industry offers summer internships or in the autumn semester

The CBS Career Centre offers every year a lot of company related events careers fairs etc

where the students always can ask for an internship

Contact Students are always welcome to contact the CBS Career Centre

httpse-campusdkcareer

Legislation There are no problems for EU and OslashSS citizens concerning Danish employment

laws The most important point is that the company insures the student during the stay in the

company Alternatively they may demand that the student himself or herself pay the insurance

costs It can as well be a problem to get them to fill out to many papers demanded by your

home university Fill them out yourself and they will normally sign them CBS has no formal

overall internship contract covering the Danish labour market

Further information There are no official sites dedicated to vacant internships in Denmark

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

stay at Bocconi and for the following 6 months

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

graduation internships that last max 6 months

In that case the company can sign the documents provided by the home university or can pay

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

httpwwwmigrifinetcommcontentasparticle=1965amplanguage=EN

Legally and technically the Finnish authorities commonly consider internships as employment

(therefore the web pages talk only about ldquoemploymentrdquo) If the student gets paid a working

contract is signed between the student and the company Some companies in Finland do take

non-paid interns but in that case the school company and student sign the contract The school

is then responsible for insuring the student and for other practical matters concerning the

work The student also gets study allowance (since the work is an obligatory part of the degree)

while doing the internship Aalto University does not sign such contracts

Company support In general terms companies consider CEMS internships like any other

ldquosummer employmentrdquo or ldquosummer traineeshipsrdquo They select the students who fit their

criteria and pay the salary according to their own practice Aalto University has previously

asked all CEMS partners about offering CEMS internship to students They refer to summer

trainee programmes as a solution

For graduates A person can get an internship in Finland even after graduating from the home

university if shehe meets the qualifications as set by the company

university itself

In all cases a covenant must be signed between the company and the university and an

visa autonomously EU students can do an internship in Italy at any time

Bocconi University supports in-coming CEMS students in formalising their internship during their

stay at Bocconi and for the following 6 months

Further information

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

graduation internships that last max 6 months

In that case the company can sign the documents provided by the home university or can pay

httpwwwsportellostageit ) or use a public organisation The procedure is fairly simple

especially if the student is an EU citizen

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

stay at Bocconi and for the following 6 months

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

especially if the student is an EU citizen

internship project The school obviously offers assistance to students who are

individually contacting NOVA although no guarantees can be given

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Legislation Internships in Italy are regulated by existing laws (law no 196 article 18 of 24th

June 1997 and the related decree no 142 introduced on 25th March 1998) and by the

university itself

In all cases a covenant must be signed between the company and the university and an

internship document among the company the university and the student

they are student visa holders Once their student visa expires they have to obtain a working

visa autonomously EU students can do an internship in Italy at any time

Bocconi University supports in-coming CEMS students in formalising their internship during their

stay at Bocconi and for the following 6 months

Further information

wwwitaliagovit

wwwtransitionsabroadcompublicationsmagazine0503internships_in_italyshtml

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

these documents

Those documents are also mandatory for acquiring the insurance coverage from Bocconi which

is necessary in order to do an internship in Italy

36

Before the beginning of the internship students must ask the Internship Office for the

documentation required by regulations (covenant internship document and end-of-internship

forms) The student must take the documentation to the employer

company to pay or not a salary to the intern

For graduates Graduates can do an internship in Italy within 18 months of graduation Bocconi

University supports graduate students who have studied in Bocconi in formalising post-

graduation internships that last max 6 months

In that case the company can sign the documents provided by the home university or can pay

an agency (such as Sportello stage a very popular and inexpensive service

httpwwwsportellostageit ) or use a public organisation The procedure is fairly simple

especially if the student is an EU citizen

Legislation The easiest way for the student to get an internship is to be registered at GSOM for

one semester which will provide himher a student visa and to get an internship with the help

of GSOM A student must keep in mind that in this case heshe will be provided with

accommodation in the GSOM dormitory but will not get any payment from the company for the

internship In this situation the students citizenship will not make any difference

a copy of their passport It is practically always required that a student should have insurance

in order to get a visa All other documents may vary in different countries

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Requested documents Italian laws require the stipulation ndash before the beginning of the

internship ndash of a covenant and an internship document which lays out the duration aims and

contents of each internship carried out at the company Through its Career Service Internship

Office the university supports this procedure and internships are not considered valid without

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

PORTUGAL ndash NOVA SCHOOL OF BUSINESS amp ECONOMICS

School support NOVA has developed two different but complementary approaches

a To explore with some of the main contact companies the possibility of internships in

Portugal for incoming students For example for the summer of 2011

a Millennium bcp is offering 1 internship in Portugal for a Polish student

b EDP is offering approximately 5 internships in Lisbon

b To individually assist CEMS students contacting NOVA with a specific internship project

(eg Internship in the Tourism area) This assistance consists in sending the CV to one or

several companies in Portugal the characteristics of which match the studentrsquos

internship project The school obviously offers assistance to students who are

individually contacting NOVA although no guarantees can be given

Contact CEMS Program Manager Elizabete Cardoso - ecardosonovasbept

Legislation Basically unlike other European countries there is no specific legislation relating

to salary benefits or duration for internships in companies in Portugal

A specific legislation with much more constraints applicable for all students including

Portuguese citizens exists for internships in the institutions that belong to the State

Requested documents The required documents for companies are the same as those required

for being a foreign student at NOVA

bull Visa

o EU citizens visa not required

o non EU citizens Student visa required for internships of 3 months or less

internship visa required for longer duration internships

bull Identity card or Passport required

For internships longer than 3 months and when the student receives a fixed salary (and not a

financial subsidy) a fiscal number (NIFNumero de identificaccedilatildeo fiscal) is required Foreigners

can request a non-residential fiscal number to obtain this a permanent Portuguese address is

needed for further contacts with fiscal administration

45

Company support Human Resources Departments usually inform non-EU interns if they need

to obtain a fiscal number according to the internships agreement

For graduates Residence documents are required for non-EU graduates A valid working visa

will be necessary as well depending on the country of origin No specific requirements for EU

graduates besides the obligation of having a fiscal number

legislation cannot be of much help in terms of visa Much will also depend on the company

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

abroad) on time

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

For EU 17EFTA nationals working for less than 3 months per year the employer do not need to

apply for a work permit but need to notify the competent cantonal immigration authorities

before they start working For an internship with a duration of more than 3 months a work

permit needs to be applied for

For EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA nationals a work permit is needed for every work stay in

Switzerland irrespective of the duration

55

For mandatory internships being part of the study program EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA students

may obtain a work permit for the limited period of the internship with the confirmation of the

university that such is mandatory Alternatively they may obtain a work permit limited to the

semester break with the confirmation of the university that the job does not interfere with the

study program

Further information httpwwwswissemigrationchthemenschweizindexhtmllang=en

For the latest update please check our overview of work permit regulations in Switzerland on

wwwcscunisgch under ldquoServices for International Studentsrdquo

Requested documents The application process is usually initiated by the employer submitting

the necessary application documents to the competent authority in the canton of residence or

work of the applicant Depending on the canton this can be the Municipal Office the

Department for Migration or the Department for Commerce

The documents required for the application are determined by the competent authority and

usually include a copy of the employment contract (salary and working conditions have to be in

line with country and industry standards) a passport photograph a copy of the passport CV

and diplomas of the applicant confirmation of the university that internship is mandatory

Company support The interest of companies to offer international students an internship

varies from company to company and depends on their business model and internal guidelines

Another factor is whether they are prepared to take the extra effort to go through the work

permit application process

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

PORTUGAL ndash NOVA SCHOOL OF BUSINESS amp ECONOMICS

School support NOVA has developed two different but complementary approaches

a To explore with some of the main contact companies the possibility of internships in

Portugal for incoming students For example for the summer of 2011

a Millennium bcp is offering 1 internship in Portugal for a Polish student

b EDP is offering approximately 5 internships in Lisbon

b To individually assist CEMS students contacting NOVA with a specific internship project

(eg Internship in the Tourism area) This assistance consists in sending the CV to one or

several companies in Portugal the characteristics of which match the studentrsquos

internship project The school obviously offers assistance to students who are

individually contacting NOVA although no guarantees can be given

Contact CEMS Program Manager Elizabete Cardoso - ecardosonovasbept

Legislation Basically unlike other European countries there is no specific legislation relating

to salary benefits or duration for internships in companies in Portugal

A specific legislation with much more constraints applicable for all students including

Portuguese citizens exists for internships in the institutions that belong to the State

Requested documents The required documents for companies are the same as those required

for being a foreign student at NOVA

bull Visa

o EU citizens visa not required

o non EU citizens Student visa required for internships of 3 months or less

internship visa required for longer duration internships

bull Identity card or Passport required

Legislation The easiest way for the student to get an internship is to be registered at GSOM for

one semester which will provide himher a student visa and to get an internship with the help

of GSOM A student must keep in mind that in this case heshe will be provided with

accommodation in the GSOM dormitory but will not get any payment from the company for the

internship In this situation the students citizenship will not make any difference

Further information httpwwwgsompuruencareer

Required documents For GSOM to prepare the invitation for visa a student will have to send us

a copy of their passport It is practically always required that a student should have insurance

in order to get a visa All other documents may vary in different countries

For the company a student will have to present a CV and a special covering letter All other

documents may be requiredrequested by the company directly

Company support This highly depends on the company and can vary greatly from one situation

to another

For graduates In this case the school can help to find the company but due to Russian

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

permit needs to be applied for

For EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA nationals a work permit is needed for every work stay in

Switzerland irrespective of the duration

line with country and industry standards) a passport photograph a copy of the passport CV

and diplomas of the applicant confirmation of the university that internship is mandatory

several companies in Portugal the characteristics of which match the studentrsquos

internship project The school obviously offers assistance to students who are

individually contacting NOVA although no guarantees can be given

Contact CEMS Program Manager Elizabete Cardoso - ecardosonovasbept

for being a foreign student at NOVA

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

profiles and vice versa

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

even in the other preferred language(s) for which they are looking for the internship position

In these cases the internship job description clearly expresses that they are interested in these

profiles and vice versa

For graduates An internship work contract in Spain almost always is done via a cooperation

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

this period CEMS students must consult their home universities to see if this person still has a

student status in order to receive a cooperation agreement

Company support Companies who have a need for an international profile like the student

profiles of the CEMS students will usually post their internship offers in Spanish and English and

agreement A cooperation agreement is a work contract for an internship which must be done

by a university for an ldquoactiverdquo student and registered in classes and possess the proper

insurance coverage by a university In this case incoming CEMS students are only recognised as

an ldquoactiverdquo CEMS student at ESADE during their official enrolment of their CEMS semester

abroad Cooperation agreements for incoming CEMS students at ESADE can be extended only

during the time when they are attending classes during their CEMS semester abroad Outside of

For mandatory internships being part of the study program EU 8+2 and Non-EUEFTA students

may obtain a work permit for the limited period of the internship with the confirmation of the

university that such is mandatory Alternatively they may obtain a work permit limited to the

semester break with the confirmation of the university that the job does not interfere with the

study program

Further information httpwwwswissemigrationchthemenschweizindexhtmllang=en

For the latest update please check our overview of work permit regulations in Switzerland on

wwwcscunisgch under ldquoServices for International Studentsrdquo

Requested documents The application process is usually initiated by the employer submitting

the necessary application documents to the competent authority in the canton of residence or

work of the applicant Depending on the canton this can be the Municipal Office the

Department for Migration or the Department for Commerce

The documents required for the application are determined by the competent authority and

usually include a copy of the employment contract (salary and working conditions have to be in

line with country and industry standards) a passport photograph a copy of the passport CV

and diplomas of the applicant confirmation of the university that internship is mandatory

Company support The interest of companies to offer international students an internship

varies from company to company and depends on their business model and internal guidelines

Another factor is whether they are prepared to take the extra effort to go through the work

permit application process

For graduates Internships after graduation are possible for EU 17EFTA nationals

Non-EUEFTA nationals can apply for a trainee position under the Stagiaire Agreement

(httpwwwswissemigrationchthemenstagiairesindexhtmllang=en) Switzerland has
