Hear from KiTH alumni now working in global tech companies across Japan and beyond.
The opportunity to work in Japan was the biggest deciding factor for me. KiTH's international programs opened doors I never imagined possible. The Japanese language training was a game-changer.
Throughout my time at KiTH, I worked on many internship projects and communicated with various departments. That helped me build my ability to lead and manage projects effectively.
The internship program taught me both hard and soft skills that enabled me to get the opportunity to work in a global company right after graduation. I'm so grateful for the foundation KiTH gave me.
