In January group of 18 polish students from Racibórz, were hosted by euroMind in Seville for a 4-weeks internship in different sectors. In Seville, students had an opportunity to see what the logistic, graphic design, marketing & advertising, administrative sector looks like in Spain. Also, trainees had different tasks which helped them to increase their knowledge.

5 students were assisting in the logistic sector. Their main tasks included: assisting in the management planning and order of the warehouse. Assisting with the coordination of the store space upon arrival of the new delivery of goods and checking their state. Preparing the orders which are going to be sent. Helping loading and unloading wares.

8 students were working as graphic designers. Trainees were conceiving, designing, modifying, and creating images using programs such as Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and Corel. Projecting designs based on the needs of the client. Offering clients services that meet the objectives of projects and justifying proposals in line with the knowledge of the trainee. Conceiving, producing, and managing visual communication projects

3 students were working in the marketing & advertising sector. Their main tasks included: preparing promotional material. Administrative support for the tasks in the area of marketing, advertising, and promotion. Participating in the process of creating, designing, and creating advertising materials.

While being in Spain, students could also take part in some amazing cultural activities, such as a tour around Seville city center, Tapas Night, Flamenco Show, and Andalusian ceramics. They also visited two Andalusian cities: Cadiz and Cordoba and learned the basics of Spanish language during very intensive Spanish lessons with our Spanish teacher.

The trainees had a great experience in a walking tour around Seville, the artistic, cultural, and financial capital of southern Spain. The city is a historical masterpiece full of Islamic monuments, gardens, and flamenco festivals. They quickly realized that Seville is considered to be an architectural gem due to its well-preserved monuments such as the Cathedral and Giralda, the Royal Alcázar, and the General Archive of the Indies – all of which are UNESCO World Heritage sites. The trainees were astonished by all the above-mentioned places as well as the beautiful square Plaza de España that has been used as a filming location in the Star Wars movies.

The trainees were able to participate in Tapas Night which was a wonderful opportunity to taste the local cuisine, meet the euroMind’s team and have lots of fun. Tapas are small portions of various types of typical Spanish food served with a drink. The euroMind team took the participants to a local bar and let them experience a little bit of the typically Spanish sociable atmosphere while tasting some Andalusian specialties. The tapas night was located in the most relaxed place in the whole city, where all the young people from the city tend to spend their free time.

EuroMind team did their best to deliver the best professional and cultural experience to the trainees of the project being always ready to help, give advice and solve any problems or doubts. The internship has not only been a time to develop knowledge of the sector but also to learn Spanish, get to know a completely different culture, make new friends and develop interpersonal skills. We hope that all of this will be an unforgettable memory for our interns and that in the future they will be able to take advantage of everything they have learned during their stay.
