Learning value: CCIP application
Published on 2011-03-12
As The Cross-Cultural Internship Program (CCIP) Window 3 application came to an end on Feb 25, we received positive feedback from the students.
"I should say the process is really cumbersome and it is the most difficult application I have ever encountered" said Sam Lou Kuok, a student of the Chinese University of Hong Kong. "Nevertheless, I have learnt to be more discreet, circumspect and to know more peers who have been very helpful. It was a very unforgettable experience! "
Due to the large amount of applicants, the schedule was tightly arranged during Window 3 application. Skype sessions, where applicants could discuss their applications directly with Elizabeth Kay (EK), the founder and head of CCIP, therefore played an important role during the application process. Skype has also been used for interviews, facilitating the process within the short timeframe.
"This is my first time to have an interview online," said Ka Yee (Rosa) Lee, a student of the University of Hong Kong, "but it turned out my performance was much better than I thought."
Adeel Ahsan, another student of the University of Hong Kong added, "I seldom use Skype, but now I realize it's such a convenient tool. If I run a committee myself and need to recruit people from different places, Skype interview is definitely going to help me out!"
Newly introduced networking peer groups on Skype also made screening a whole new different experience to the applicants. Students helped each other with application materials and made instant feedback possible.
"I think this is a win-win strategy, the peer group helped me a lot in this application process. I have learned how to work hard and work smart, how to write a professional email, and how to communicate with others," commented Qiutao (Carol) Pan, a student of the Macau University of Science and Technology. "It is really a special experience for me to learn. I have changed the way I used to do things before. What is more, I would like to help the new students complete their application as much as I can."
More than 110 students have been accepted till now, while the rest are still waiting for their interview results.
The Extended Application started on Feb 28, 2011. Interested students are encouraged to visit the website www.theccip.org and read the instructions carefully before submitting the application materials by Mar 31, 2011.
