Great international internship opportunity!

I had an amazing experience with AIP during my internship in Japan. From start to finish, the team was incredibly supportive and well-organized, making the entire process smooth and really easy. They helped me secure a great placement that aligned with my goals, and their guidance throughout the program really made a difference.

Living and working in Japan was an unforgettable experience, both professionally and personally. I gained valuable skills, met amazing people, and had the chance to put myself in a completely new culture. AIP was always responsive and helpful whenever I had questions or needed assistance.

I highly recommend AIP to anyone looking for an international internship opportunity. It’s a great way to grow your career while experiencing life abroad!

Great experience

They booked us a hotel in a great area, which made the overall experience much more enjoyable, convenient, and comfortable. The location allowed easy access to transportation, restaurants, and different parts of the city, which we really appreciated. They were also able to successfully secure internships for all of us in the program, which was incredibly valuable and well organized. Throughout the experience, they made an effort to stay connected by messaging us occasionally to check in, answer any questions, and ensure everything was going smoothly. The staff was consistently kind, supportive, responsive, and genuinely cared about our well-being and overall experience, which made a big difference.

Life changing experience

My internship experience in Japan has been genuinely rewarding. Being based in Osaka made a huge difference—the accommodation was in a central location, which made it easy to explore the city and really feel connected to daily life here. Outside of work, the program also created some great shared experiences, like our welcome dinner and the trip to Universal, which helped everyone bond early on.

What stood out most to me was how consistent and supportive AIP (Asia Internship Program) was throughout the entire experience. They were always checking in, making sure we were comfortable, and quick to address any questions or concerns. That level of communication made the whole process feel smooth and well-organized.

Overall, it felt like a good balance of professional growth and cultural immersion, and I’m glad I had the opportunity to be part of it.

Smooth Reasuring process

The service is perfect, the whole process went smoothly from acquiring companies and getting feedbacks from the interviews and getting the position.

Throughout my internship, AIP provided constant support, organizing call for my feedback on how the company was treating me. Additionally, I was treated to a meal when I traveled to Tokyo, meeting fellow interns under AIP and got to interact with others.

Its very reasurring to know they have a local stuff to contact for support too should anything happens.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
Being in Shibuya, it was scary to find which train I should take which the different platform it has and divided into 2 seperate segments although being the same station.
Pros
  • Constant support check ins
  • Able to provide feedback on my internship conpany
  • People to contact on ground for support

Amazing overseas internship experience

Very grateful to AIP for giving me the opportunity to take up an internship abroad, it has allowed me to experience new things and broaden my horizons. The job hunting was amazing and helped me to find a very nice company according to my requirements and in a short period of time which allowed me to work on a tight schedule. Communications were smooth with AIP agents and planning was handled well. Staff provides a lot of support with monthly calls and resources, especially with WhatsApp for flexible communications. I would recommend this service if anyone is looking for an internship abroad.

Best 3 months of my life

I had an amazing experience with AIP during my 3-month internship in Japan. From the very beginning, the team was incredibly supportive and always there whenever we needed help. They guided us through every step of the process and regularly checked in to make sure everything was going well.

I really appreciated how they also recommended places to visit, things to do, and shared tips on how to live like a local in Japan. It made the whole experience much smoother and more enjoyable.

Thank you AIP for all the support throughout my internship. If I ever plan to go on another internship in the future, I would definitely choose to go with them again. Highly recommended!

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
Plan more trips to other prefectures in Japan!
Pros
  • Try new food
  • Meet new friends
  • Visit new places

Amazing Internship Experience in Japan

AiP helped me find and secure my internship in Japan at Kenja K.K. in Tokyo, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, the team guided me through each step preparing my application, organizing interviews, and even giving advice about living in Japan. Once I arrived, everything went smoothly, and I quickly settled into my new role as a Business Analyst intern. Working at Kenja has been an incredible opportunity to learn about Japanese business culture, improve my professional skills, and meet great people. I’m really thankful to AiP for making this whole experience possible and highly recommend them to anyone who wants to grow professionally while discovering Japan.
