“The Global Internship Program is a perfect experience for students to dive into the real business world. It allowed me to work on hands-on projects to make a real impact on businesses in various industries. I was able to work on social media marketing for food and beverage company, real estate entrepreneurship expanding in the japanese market, market research for a ski industry investment project, set up AR technology websites, or even conduct transcript translations for media company. Furthermore, I loved that it was a very international environment. I was able to work with interns from around the world such as Italy, USA, South Korea, Kosovo, North Macedonia etc. The daily meetings we had also trained me to improve my discussion skills, to give constructive feedback, and to be organized and efficient.

This experience in Global Internship Program led me to pursue my studies abroad in Marketing in my Masters degree and my current job as an online marketing intern. I am truly thankful for the experience and highly recommend students in Japan who are seeking to gain practical knowledge and skills on multiple industries and work in an international and challenging environment.”
