This is where 'The Intern Insider' comes in, a website that provides reviews and comments about internships all over Malaysia

The idea for the website started when founders – Nik Nor Zafirah Nik Affendi and Amir Roslan realised that the quality of their internships differ from one another
We took a look at the site and here's what we thought:
Internships are differentiated into different industries and they range from law to retail

Click in each section and you'll see profiles of different companies in that industry.

Reviews are all listed in the company profile description.
Started off as a peer-to-peer site, Intern Insider now allows companies to advertise their internships on their profile page

To write a review, you could opt to create an account or be anoynymous

The site uses a quick scale rating for you to rate the company on a scale of 1 to 5. Also, they're pretty particular with the content of the review as well. If it breaks the rules that's been set, your review would be edited.
And that's about it!
It's a very simple site with straightforward and easy to use interface. Overall, we love the idea of Intern Insider – it gives interns an idea or expectation of the company they'll be getting into.

Good luck finding an internship! 😀
