Traveling to Nepal for Technical Intern Training Program Interviews (Part 2)

2023/12/21

Hello, everyone.

This is Enta.

I've been in Nepal for the past few days.

I thought the flight would take 8 hours, but it ended up taking about 10 hours.

 

I've already watched three movies by now, and it's just been a cycle of sleeping and waking up, lol.

Ten hours really is a long time. (My butt hurts.)

Nepal Airport

Also, the Wi-Fi connection is really bad.

Just writing this blog post is quite a chore.

It takes about five minutes just to upload a photo...

I can't take it anymore lol

 

Today, we'll be interviewing dozens of candidates to select six of them.

Then, we’ll pay a home visit to the child who lives closest among those who were selected.

I want to carefully evaluate candidates so that we can hire responsible young people!

And I’ll be doing some in-depth reporting on the situation of technical interns here in Nepal.

It seems like it's a pretty big business.

 

By the way, the food in Nepal is super delicious!!

 

See you later

Hello, everyone. This is Enta. I’d like to share a story from my recent trip to Nepal, where I was talking with the CEO I was traveling with about the future of technical interns and Japan in the past.
