山姆: I love researching information on various databases and I have a strong interest in global marketing strategies. 我对IT行业也很感兴趣, and I want to learn more about how to enhance productivity by leveraging IT solutions for marketing purposes. 反过来, an important reason I chose to intern at IBM is the opportunity to research various marketing and communications IT strategies to help firms enhance productivity.

山姆:为活动创建议程和主题, translating reports and letters from 日本ese to 英文, 会见客户, researching the financials and strategies of various companies to identify potential guests and guest speakers for events, 制作宣传视频, and making presentations to promote IBM software during events.

山姆:除其他外, I have learned to keep it simple and minimize risk when creating event themes that involve 会见客户. I've learned the importance of remaining realistic in every decision made regarding a project. I've learned to make sure I understand my tasks 100% before starting to work on them. Asking too many questions to coworkers while working on a task can be annoying in a 日本ese work setting. I've also improved my business-日本ese ability as well as my understanding of 日本ese business customs.

山姆: I plan on working for a global marketing enterprise to help businesses increase profitability and growth. IT行业将是理想的选择, but I am open to any industry as long as I can research to develop global marketing strategies. I am equally comfortable working in 日本, the U.S.、法国. I think my choice will depend on the opportunities I receive upon graduation. After four to five years of acquiring experience from working, I would like to start my own business in IT solutions.

山姆: My internship will help me in the following ways:

• This internship taught me a lot about 日本ese professional norms and values. 反过来, I will be ready to work in 日本 upon graduation.
• I know how to meet important 日本ese clients thanks to this internship. If I have to meet 日本ese clients for negotiations or contract purposes for a U.S. 或法国公司，我将准备这样做.
• My extensive use of various databases for research purposes has enhanced my marketing research skills, which I may use for a future job in global marketing.
• Translating reports enhanced my language skills, which I may use in the future.
