What's the internship program like at Icarus Jet?

When I first joined, I was very eager to learn the business and be apart of this company. Regardless of my eagerness, I quickly realized I was asked to do things that I had no idea how to do and there was no clear guidance to learning procedures. Regardless of there not being a clear procedure or guide to the business, I was able to pick up on protocols fairly quickly. This job can become very stressful very quickly and I do not believe that upper management made that any better. We all know the stress of this business, but additional stress and tension from upper management do not make it any better. It causes mistakes to be made and minds to be flustered. I have seen other operations work, and it is not like this. However, I do believe that I have the support of upper management on the things that I do. Sometimes, I do not feel that I am free to say what I think when I disagree with upper management because I know how they will react.

The internship program at Icarus Jet is a very hand-on and intuitive experience. In a short period of time you will gain incredible knowledge into the aviation and charter industry. At the same time you will gain valuable career, networking, and business experience. There is work to be done, I'll say that. This is more like an actual job than an internship, and the pay is great. The team is very close knit and are supportive and helpful. We are an international company so you will get experience in dealing with clients and colleagues from all over the world. I can truly say that I could not have had a better internship experience than I did at Icarus Jet.
