Meiko Gakuen High School / Fukuoka

Employment
Kyushu Sangyo University a school under the Nakamura Nakamura Sangyo Gakuen Foundation

Through self-analysis, I clarified the type of job that suited my personality and character before participating in internships and preparing for the SPI test. For my application forms, I focused on writing clear and engaging sentences that were easy to understand even for first-time readers. During interviews, I made sure to maintain a positive and smiling demeanor. I believe that my strong desire to work for that company led to my job offer.
