I went to see off the Vietnamese technical interns, but...!?
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I went to the airport the other day. I had a flight departing from Nagoya International Airport (Centrair) at 9:00 a.m. on July 10, bound for Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam. Since it was the first flight of the day, I was waiting in front of the check-in counter by 7:30 a.m. I had promised to make my own way to the airport...
Today is the day the technical interns are returning home! But...!?
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. The other day, I told you about one of our trainees who ran away. It was a technical intern who ran away, and I have some thoughts on that. Also, today I’m heading to the airport to see another trainee off lol. This trainee is going back home after one year. The reason is… well, he’s just way too useless…
A technical intern ran away, and here are my thoughts on that
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. It’s finally happened. A technical intern has gone missing! One of them has taken off, lol. She said she needed to go take care of her girlfriend, who had been hospitalized 10 days before payday, and called in sick. She’s been absent without leave ever since. (To be honest, her behavior lately had been a bit suspicious…)
There are various hidden risks associated with hiring technical interns.
Hello, everyone. It’s Enta here. It’s really muggy, isn’t it…? Once this season is over, summer will be here in a flash, and before we know it, it’ll be the end of the year. I mean, will there even be any work this year?? lol I heard that a few slope stabilization companies have gone out of business… It’s pretty bad that there’s so little work. But…
Reflections on the Current Situation of Technical Intern Trainees
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. After discussing various topics related to technical interns at different companies, I thought I’d write down some of my thoughts. I’ll list the questions I’m often asked by other companies. 1. How many interns are ideal right now? 2. Has anyone run away? 3. Do they actually work? 4. Ma…
Watching often helps you improve faster.
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I’m working on repairing a grout mixer. Before I knew it, I’d stripped off all the paint… I hadn’t really planned on doing that, haha. But I guess it’s good practice… There were holes here and there, so I’m going to weld them shut…
Surprisingly, many technical interns end up staying to work instead of returning home, so it’s tough on employers if they don’t have a steady workload!
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Do the technical interns at your company complete their full three-year term and return home? Or do they extend their stay for an additional two years before returning? Initially, according to the explanation provided by the Technical Intern Association, most were supposed to return after three years…
Are we really able to teach technical interns the skills that will shape their lives?
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. Do you perform machine maintenance at your company? At our company, we generally handle maintenance in-house. Well, when we have some free time, we all take our time doing maintenance together so that everyone can learn about the machinery’s structure and how it works. That said, while we cover the basics of the machinery, maintenance…
Traveling to Nepal for Interviews and Hiring Technical Intern Trainees (Part 8): Special Edition
Hello, everyone. This is Enta. This time, I’m sharing a bonus story from Kathmandu, Nepal. On my last day, I’d had enough of Nepali food after taking a chartered taxi, so I was heading to a soba restaurant lol. On the way, for some reason, the police pulled me over! First, they checked the driver’s license…
