A phone call can help you figure out what questions to ask about an internship abroad and where to start. It will help you decide if interning abroad is something you want to pursue and if the internship provider is a suitable fit. There are a number of different methods to prepare for your meeting with a financial adviser.
When you're on the phone with an adviser, it's easy to overlook what inquiries you're going to make. Consider writing down your questions and worries regarding interning overseas, the providers, or any info you are looking for, before calling them.
