Responsibilities for the internship include a daily walk around the construction site for quality control and proper execution of work, assistance in drawing up acts when performing work performed. I also studied the documentation for this project.
Practical aspects related to work.
In addition to the internship, the most important area of foreign life was knowledge of the culture of Serbia. Serbs are very hospitable people who are friendly to foreigners, especially to Russians. I remembered the Serbian cuisine: very diverse, hearty, inexpensive. Everyone was friendly, energetic. In my opinion, the differences in mentality between different people are gradually blurring. ”

“I went to Poland, to Krakow, for an internship from the international company IAESTE. I know that they are invited to our university, and it is related to our department - EUN. I mean, I have anything. I agreed without hesitation, because I think that any experience is useful, especially this one.
The internship was held at a large construction company in Krakow, where I held the position of manager of a construction site. All the necessary resources are available. In my free time I visit nearby countries: Austria, Slovakia, Germany.
The time spent in Krakow is useful, as many have understood about the specifics of their profession and, most importantly, about themselves. There are not many differences in our mentality. It is assumed that in full. ”
