About us
Stand out and see the world with Ireland’s leading work, intern and grad visa experts
Founded in 1959 in the halls of Trinity College and UCD, USIT’s student forefathers knew one thing. That the way to explore and experience more – was to earn or learn while you do it. With 65+ years’ experience offering work, intern and trainee opportunities in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK – USIT opens up a world of opportunities for students, grads and 18-30s.
Whether you want to fund your summer on a J1, bankroll your gap year with a working holiday visa, or use your degree to get ahead on a professional internship – we do the works: setting you up with the visa assistance, placement or job help, and in-country support you need to work the world.
"I decided to do the USIT grad visa because I figured I had to become an adult when I finished college, and I may as well do it in one of the coolest cities in the world" - Holly, USIT Grad USA intern
