Internships in Japan? Possible?

<p>Hello guys,</p>

<p>I am going to be a freshman at Cornell this fall. At my school, like everyone else goes to Japan, and I am kind of sad I am the only one heading to US. </p>

<p>I just heard that my HS mentor, a sophomore at MIT, is going to intern in Japan for the summer three months, and I am just so jealous. </p>

<p>OK, so is this even possible? Thanks!</p>

<p>Certainly, why not? I currently have a Cornell friend who's interning at a consulting firm there. Though you will have to look and apply for internships on your own because companies don't <em>typically</em> come onto campus to recruit for their Japan office.</p>

<p>That is cool! Does anyone know how hard it is to be recruited? And will I have to work for the whole three summer months?</p>
