Do you speak Australian?

If you do, you could be eligible for an internship which requires you to travel around New Zealand and convince Aussies to do the same.

Holiday operators Experience Oz + NZ have launched a competition for what it says is New Zealand's ultimate internship.

The program includes 10 days of travel for four people through Queenstown, Milford Sound, Rotorua, Taupo, Waitomo, Matamata and Auckland.

Accommodation, experiences, car hire and flights – valued at $NZ30,000 ($A27,929) – will be paid for, and in return interns have to share their trip through photos, social media and video.

"We are looking for four New Zealanders to showcase their backyard to their Aussie mates across the ditch," says business manager Michelle Woodroff.

Some of the tasks interns must fulfil includes bungy jumping, sky diving, jet boating, visiting an active volcano, and going on a tour of The Hobbiton movie set.

To apply, candidates must submit a visual resume with their best photos or videos of their favourite landmarks or experiences from their hometown.

Applications close on October 27, with the winner announced in the first week of November so interns can start working and travelling during the semester break.
