このインターンの雰囲気

They are all unique and talented interns who I hope to stay connected with for years to come! XD

During free time at training sessions or before and after class, when I ask the other interns how their classes are going, I get to chat with them and know them on a personal level, as well as learn a lot from them. I also have the opportunity to directly communicate with them about their strengths and what went well in class, and we are able to improve each other's self-esteem. We have a casual relationship where we discuss things like job-hunting outside of work!

As an intern, we get think about how to improve the classes, how to satisfy the participants, how to improve other activities, etc., We share ideas and make suggestions so that we all feel that we are working together to create something better.

What is appealing about With The World?

・It is an environment where you can think and act on your own

・Develop close relationships and work alongside full-time employees

・It is a place where interns can have the experience of taking the initiative and where everyone is at home and easy to work with, but where they also get good feedback to help them grow.

・The interns are able to connect with people who are kind and passionate about what they do.

・Given the chance to develop your empathy and think about the feelings of others.

・Many opportunities to learn skills that will be useful in job hunting and in the real world!
