Program Reviews

These days, the whole world is becoming virtual and it's important to get a good grip of the internet. I did an internship with a Chinese company which was really interesting. I don't speak a word of Chinese, but the people I worked with were speaking in English with one another anyways and there were two Americans and one German guy in the team. Everyone was really gentle and kind with me. We mostly used What's App to communicate and my superior always made sure to call me 3-5 times per week to check on my progress and answer my questions. My virtual internship was an amazing opportunity. I had a great experience and made valuable contacts in China!

The abroad internship provided me not only with the opportunity to learn the operation processes and challenges in the field of marketing & pr, but also gave me the chance to develop my own creativity to a whole new level. Since i am working on tasks in the field of copywriting and SEO by creating content with purpose of distribution and websites i complemented that with different photography fields as new hobby.

Japan is popular for its modern pop culture, reaching from traditional paintings to mangas and animes. The city scape offers beside a beautiful skyline, a very vibrant composition of architectural patterns, forms and structures. At night, when the sun sets and the street, traffic and advertisement lights go on the city changes its face into a "Blade Runner" like scene.
The seemingly scenic mountains sourounding the city on one side with the gorgeous beaches on the other offer many inspirational moments!

Everyone who wishes to develop their creativity and find inspiration should want to travel to Fukuoka!

Half way through my remote internship but still enjoying it to the MAX! I didn't know it was possible until Meiji told me about their new program, but it was actually the perfect match for me! I need some work exprience in business and consulting but as my mother is very sick, I wanted to stay with her and take care of her at home. I went to Japan a couple of times already and I love their culture so I am really happy to be able to work alongside Japanese people! Working from home is not so different than going to an office. It is actually quite nice and reassuring to be in a familiar environment, with my family. Besides the business skills, I am learning a lot about the internet, about how to use certain softwares and I am gaining great skills that will be usefull for any kind of job in the future! Thank you Meiji Internships for your dedication!

Japan is the perfect country to get proper work experience. I did my internship in a lovely company in Osaka and worked in marketing and business. It provided me with good opportunities to learn about my industry and about Japanese language and Japanese culture. I chose the business package because I was interested in Meiji's online language classes. I think it was the best timing to learn Japanese while living and working in the country! The classes were really useful and productive. I would recommend it of you want to learn Japanese efficiently.
Meiji Internships organized amazing meetings and trips every week. My best memory was the Universal Studio excursion. We had so much fun there!
I would do it all over again without hesitation as my experience was really positive.

I had such a wonderful time in Tokyo. I am so grateful for the incredible people I met there and the fantastic experience I had with them. I made friends for life during this internship. We had so much fun exploring the city and other areas during our time off!
My placement was perfect for me. I worked with great people from all over the world. I really appreciated that my team was international (Mostly Japanese, Americans, and Germans) because I could work on my Japanese while not being lost in translation! The staff of meiji helped me with everything regarding the apartment, the internet access etc. I had the best time of my life and before I realized it, my internship was already finished and I had to go back home.

I was supposed to do my internship in South Korea but because of the coronavirus, it seemed impossible... until Meiji Internships offered me to do a virtual internship! At first, I was a bit reluctant, thinking it would be easier to just postpone it. But as we don't know how things will go and when I might be able to go, I accepted to give it a try. I am so happy that I did it! I think I am one of the first applicants to give virtual experience a shot, so it was extra exciting to embark on this adventure! I started two weeks ago and I am still participating in my design and marketing internship now while attending my online uni classes. So my internship is an exciting break from my daily routine.
I have to say that I am having a lot of fun and I don't have any regrets! I am flexible in terms of working hours which is a bliss. My coworkers are so sweet and supportive. We have skype calls on a daily basis and even though I am not in Korea, it feels like it haha! Doing marketing virtually is not a problem at all, it's even easier than I thought it would be, as everything is linked to the internet these days. I am thankful to Meiji Internships for offering such an opportunity which was way more efficient than postponing my internship.

My experience in Tokyo was one of a kind. I had the most positive and fun work experience of my life! And I can compare it because it wasn't my first internship, even though it was the first one in a foreign country. My coworkers were so kind and they welcomed me as a family member. We had a few dinners together, the first one was the week of my arrival: they organized a kind of welcome party for me at a restaurant! I was a bit worried that interning abroad would be hard, and I didn't know what to expect from Japanese people as their culture had nothing to do with mine, but I was so surprised in a good way. This experience clearly changed my life! I gained so many skills while enjoying Japan and creating unforgettable memories.

I just gotta talk bout Meiji Internships as well: they were so competent and professional. I never felt lost or anything thanks to their great service. Interning abroad can be complicated when you are not used to it, but they made the process easy and enjoyable!

Really amazing program. Interning in Singapore was wonderful. My coworkers were accommodating and friendly. I loved working with different people and seeing what they do; I learned a lot and made good connections in Asia. If you want to do activities you might not do by yourself and see new parts of the city, I would recommend attending as many activities planned by Meiji as you can. It's a great way to meet other interns as well and create unforgettable memories with them. I lived many adventures with my friends in Singapore and I plan on keeping in touch with them for a long time to come. The accommodation was good and comfortable and the neighborhood was calm. The staff was lovely and very caring for us. I have learned so much and had so much fun in the process and I had a once in a lifetime experience!

My time in Thailand was truly an unbelievable experience. I did an exceptionally wonderful internship that taught me so much about the fashion industry in Asia.
I gained much knowledge and I feel like a different and more talented person now. There was never a time I felt unsure thanks to Meiji Internships' remarkable work. They organized amazing trips to places like Erawan National Park or Chiang Mai. I was constantly on the go to discover new places and live new adventures! I am thankful for the incredible friendships I created. Meiji Internships is a melting pot of different cultures and nationalities. Living in Asia was so cool and different from America, I was amazed and surprised by so many things.

I absolutely loved my time interning in Vietnam with Meiji Internships! I interned in a business incubator company, and worked in business development and consulting. My internship inspired me a lot and allowed me to have a professional look at my working approach. My coordinator was so nice and optimistic, it was always a pleasure to meet and speak with everyone in this programme. I had a wonderful group of friends and we had such a great time together. I couldn't have asked for a better experience! I was afraid that three months would be quite long, but time flew by and I was always busy working, learning and sightseeing. The Vietnamese people welcomed me so warmly and kindly that it was hard to leave them at the end of my three months.
I will cherish those memories for a long long time!
