The Global Marketing Exchange is thrilled to welcome two new talented trainees – our first from Croatia and Estonia, respectively – to our NYC program.

‘One belongs to New York instantly, one belongs to it as much in five minutes as in five years’, Tom Wolfe said. My first month as a GME Trainee just went by, and there are no better words to express my feelings and emotions.

Former GME participant talks about his year in New York

Since I was young, like many people, I always had a dream of living in NYC. When I grew up and started my career in the marketing and digital world, the desire to immerse myself in the culture of the Big Apple grew even stronger.

Trainee Ginelle Appau tells her story

The GME experience so far has been nothing less than amazing. When applying for the program, I was keenly aware that we live in an increasingly global marketplace, in which many employers are looking for candidates with international experience. Besides hopefully making me more attractive to prospect employees, working overseas has allowed me to broaden my knowledge, intercultural skills, and has challenged me to perform well in an unfamiliar environment.
 

GME trainee Eugenia Fortis shares her experience

I still vividly remember when I discovered GME with its catch phrase, “Do you want to live in New York?” When I applied for the program, I thought it was probably a very well orchestrated online scam ... but then I got the job offer, and nothing since that moment has ever been more real and exciting.
