Company mission

To help students & recent graduates move abroad for internships in the most cost-efficient and sustainable way.

Our take

Capital Placement is a global internship program provider. The company was founded in 2012 and has partnered with 1500+ companies across 25+ industries since then.

Capital Placement takes care of all the logistics associated with the internship, such as visas and insurance. As well as its simplicity, it aims to keep fees as low as possible in order to attract students from different backgrounds - Capital Placement's prices are on average ~20% cheaper than the alternatives.

Capital Placement believes that internships abroad are more than the work experience alone - it's also about understanding the culture, travelling, and building soft skills. In 2019, they were placed the top provider in the Growth category by Go Overseas (who'd asked every intern alumni to rate the growth they experienced over the course of their internship abroad).

Company values

  • We care - We have the utmost faith in our team members and the programs that we build. By investing in our team’s happiness, we are investing in the success of our company as a whole.
  • We fail forward - Experimentation is encouraged at CP, and we do it a lot. Sometimes we don’t get things right, and that’s okay too. To achieve our highest potential, we must learn how to fail forward.
  • We prioritse - We work in small, multidisciplinary teams that are focused on prioritising our customers by developing the best programs possible.
  • We learn - We are dedicated to providing everyone at CP the opportunity to learn new skills. We back this up with a personal learning budget every year.
  • We play - Between our side-splitting team socials, Julia’s never-ending list of dad jokes, and our overly competitive ping pong leaderboard, there really is never a dull moment amongst us.
