A life-changing experience in Tokyo!

by: Roberto Ken Martina - ItalyProgram: International Internships in Tokyo

The Intern Group is an excellent stepping stone for young people who want to gain work experience in a new country. Thanks to the super kind and helpful TIG team, my experience in Tokyo was positive, motivating, fun, and above all, it gave me a clearer idea of the next steps toward my future. It’s not just a work experience but, above all, a life experience. The only downside of this experience is that once it’s over, you won’t want to go back home :)

A supported journey into the Japanese work force.

My internship was a 6 month program in a non-TIG accommodation. The advisors were down to earth people, always available, and very helpful. My internship was an IT based one. I really enjoyed the company I worked at. All of my coworkers were very accommodating and I had a healthy work-life balance. Outside of the internship, there were many events that TIG hosted, including welcome parties for new Interns once or twice a month, going to landmarks in and around Tokyo, and outings to the nearby Ka...

Best Summer in Tokyo

I loved spending 8 weeks in Tokyo and could not have asked for a better internship. I interned for a consulting company and learned so much in the span of two months. I also loved all of the day trips and excursions planned through the intern group like visiting Kamakura and Mt. Fuji! For anyone considering this program just know that you will be able to experience so many cool things while having the support you need to be successful both personally and professionally!
