Internship Experience

My intern experience at a Malaysian NGO

by Nadhira Yusof·November 17, 2025

Different from corporate. Very mission-driven people. Sparse resources mean you learn to do a lot with little. Pay was RM500 (volunteering essentially). Rewarding if you care about the cause.

NGO work looks excellent on a CV for consulting, social enterprise, and public policy roles. Very differentiated.

The resource constraint teaches you creativity that commercial interns rarely develop. Valuable mindset.
