Samsung

You don't have to look for your own apartment; Samsung has dormitories with big apartments.

One apartment had 3 bedrooms (15m² ~ 160ft²), 2 bathrooms, a huge living room, a kitchen, and a balcony. There was enough space for everyone and no problems with using the bathroom.

There was also a squash court and a fitness room at the dormitories.

You also get 3 meals a day provided by Samsung. For breakfast, you have several choices for take-out.

If you have lunch or dinner on campus (that's how they refer to their areas), then you also have several choices. Lunch also offers an international corner. At the dormitory, you have 2 choices.

All in all, you have to like Korean food to like the food there, but it is really good.

On the weekends, you usually go to Seoul, and Samsung provides free shuttle buses from the campus to Seoul every 30-90 minutes until 12 am.

The team I was in gave me a topic to research and present in front of them at the end of my internship. They also showed me and another intern a lot of the company, like the production process (chip wiring, wafer production, etc.), which they don't usually show. They also took us to their dinner after work, where they eat and drink a lot, and the company pays for it.

If you do a good job during the internship, you will get a job offer after your graduation! 12 out of 13 received one, me as well.

You can't really do serious work because most of the programs they use (internally programmed) are in Korean and include a lot of confidential information. The security is very high!

If you leave the campus, you have a security check similar to an airport. Your phone is checked if you have stickers on your camera, a metal detector, and X-ray check for all bags.

Also, keep in mind that not everybody can speak English or is good at it, but that's what the international interns are for: to globalize the company!

The managers I got in contact with did a great job!
