Good morning,
I am Mattia Sesta, an Italian student who is pursuing a bachelor degree (at the third year) in Business and Economics at the University of Cagliari, with a particular interest in the marketing field.
I have won a scholarship grant to do my internship in Melbourne, so I am looking for a company to do my unpaid internship with.
The internship will be totally paid by my University and it is scheduled to start on 30th September, 2017 and last until 31st December, 2017 (these dates do not depend on me and cannot be changed). To accept the scholarship I have to conclude the agreement with the company within the date of 22nd February, 2017.
May I ask you where could I send my resume?
Thank you in advance,
Kind Regards,
Mattia Sesta
