The internship I completed in Tokyo was fantastic! Thanks to the Intern Group and all their support and provisions, I was able to undertake an engaging and fulfilling internship within one of the most beautiful and vibrant cities in the world. The Intern Group were extremely skilled at analysing my resume, as based on my strengths, they suitably paired me with the NGO Seibo Japan, where I was able to grow and develop my skills and interests in marketing and fundraising. I would highly recommend taking part in an Internship with The Intern Group, and I can't wait until I return to Japan!

My Internship experience was structured and very well managed. The support staff in Tokyo were amazing in helping me settle in and generally ensuring the whole team had a high quality experience. Personally I’d say my highlights were the excursions organized on the weekends to get a good balance of travelling and actually getting to experience Japan while working, they helped a lot in strengthening the bond with other interns making many of us hopefully be life long friends. Overall fantastic experience.

In Summer 2025 I completed an 8 week internship in Tokyo through The Intern Group. They were very helpful with the placement and I feel like they really listened to my thoughts on finding the right place for me. I ended up interning for an amazing company in central Tokyo and met some great people. I also really appreciate the scheduled meetups and excursions around Tokyo outside of my internship that were planned and operated by the TIG experience coordination team in Tokyo. It really helped me to meet other people in the same situation as me and I made some great friends and memories. Overall my experience with The Intern Group was amazing and exceeded my expectations.

I had an incredible experience with the InternGroup in Tokyo. The staff was exceptional, providing continuous support and assistance in all aspects of my internship. My internship was equally fantastic; the company I worked for significantly contributed to my growth by enhancing both my skills and knowledge. Additionally, I thoroughly enjoyed immersing myself in Japanese culture, exploring the diverse food, and learning about the rich traditions. The whole experience was enriching and memorable, making my time in Tokyo truly amazing.

My program coordinators, Alisha & Erika were the absolute best. Everything under TIG was fantastic. Best internship I could have asked for and there were always fun events to attend through the intern group. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking to do an international internship. I was an intern at an architecture firm for 8 weeks. The only thing I wish I could have changed is how far I lived from my office. The commute was tough at times but honestly I don’t have really anything negative to say.

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 Kanagawa prefecture. I got along well with my fellow interns within the program and we also organized doing our own explorations of Tokyo. My only complaint is that the program fees are a little expensive, but if money is no a problem, I would whole-heartedly recommend this program to anyone looking to gain work experience in Tokyo or broaden their international perspective.

I have wanted to come to Japan since I was a kid and was over the moon to be able to visit while also interning for a company that is in the field I want to pursue. This program was absolutely amazing. I felt supported throughout the entire process and always had a helping hand when I needed it. I am very grateful for Erika as she always checked in on me and made sure I was succeeding personally and professional throughout the program. Overall, I rate this experience a 5/5 because I was able to explore Tokyo to my heart's content while also learning so much at my internship. If you are considering joining this program, please do!

I loved interning with TIG in Tokyo!! There were so many opportunities to meet new people and interns and experience new cultures, places, and food. Help was always there when I needed it and they made sure that everything was going well with my company as well, and even work ended up being a really fun experience! I loved exploring over the weekend trying new foods and going to parks/temples and other unique exhibitions that are only in Tokyo. Overall I would definitely recommend it!!!
