At Spirit Cultural Exchange, our job is to make yours easier with US hospitality Internships.
We partner with luxury hotels and resorts across the US to simplify every step of the J-1 Intern process, so you can focus on delivering world-class guest experiences – not navigating visa regulations and paperwork.
Here’s how we help:
1. Personalized Matching Process
We don’t just send resumes; we send the right candidates. Spirit Cultural Exchange works with trusted International Partners to match you with qualified, enthusiastic individuals ready to contribute to your team and grow their skills in US hospitality.
All applicants are screened for:
- Relevant education and/or experience
- English proficiency
- Professionalism and cultural readiness
We take the time to understand your needs and help you find candidates who fit your brand and service culture.
2. One Point of Contact, From Start to Finish
When you work with Spirit Cultural Exchange, you’re assigned a dedicated program coordinator who’s with you every step of the way. You’ll always know who to call, and you’ll never be left guessing.
We pride ourselves on responsive, relationship-based support that reflects the high-touch service standards you deliver to your guests.
3. We Handle the Paperwork
From start to finish, we take care of the details, including:
- J-1 visa sponsorship
- DS-2019 and DS-7002 forms
- Training plan creation/revision
- SEVIS compliance
- Insurance, travel, and visa interview support
We ensure everything is accurate, compliant, and on time, so you don’t have to worry about red tape.
4. Ongoing Support Throughout the Program
Our work doesn’t stop when your Intern arrives. Spirit Cultural Exchange stays actively involved throughout the J-1 program to ensure a smooth, successful experience for both you and your participant. We provide:
- Regular check-ins
- 24/7 emergency support
- Cultural engagement guidance
- End-of-program wrap-up and feedback
If you’re ever having issues or concerns with a participant, let us know. We’re happy to step in, reach out, and have a conversation. We’re here to support you, advocate for program success, and help resolve challenges quickly and professionally.
5. Trusted by Leading US Hospitality Brands
Spirit Cultural Exchange partners with some of the most recognized hotels and resorts in the US. Our Interns are placed in properties known for exceptional service, and we understand what it takes to meet your standards.
We’re not just a sponsor; we’re your trusted partner in building strong, successful US hospitality Internships.
