Work & Travel

Working in another country is a sure way to immerse yourself in another culture while offsetting your travel costs. InterExchange Work & Travel programs enable you to earn money and experience daily life for part of your program, then travel and explore the country! You’ll have plenty of time to make new friends while also gaining work experience. Job placement or in-country job search support is provided with all programs.

We match qualified hosts with pre-screened, English-speaking international students who are excited about sharing their cultures and perspectives with you while living and working in the U.S. during your peak season.
