＊Coordinated by One&Co Sales/Marketing intern Ayumi Mitsui (National University of Singapore, Year 1 Business Administration and Communications & New Media)
CROSSLINK is an event aimed to build a bridge between university students studying in Singapore and Japanese companies. Registration for CROSSLINK vol.4 in February 2022 is now open!
One&Co acts as a business platform to connect Japan and Singapore by offering a community where people and companies can create cross-border connections. Our community focuses not only for working adults, but also for YOU, a university student!
In Singapore, a considerable number of local students are interested in Japanese language and society. At the National University of Singapore on its own, more than 2000 undergraduate students enroll in Japanese studies courses every year, with many of them engaging in language and cultural immersion programmes as well as internship in Japan. At the same time, many Japanese companies are seeking to understand the needs, culture, and values of Singaporean youth through interaction with local university students.
Having said that, it is challenging for both of these groups to “find the right one” in the process of application and recruitment. Language barriers have always been a major obstacle when it comes to recruiting local universities students. On the same note, local students may be hesitant to apply due to the uncertainty of the company’s culture.
With that thought in mind, the first CROSSLINK was held in April 2021, followed by the second and third session in September and December 2021 respectively. Past attendees include students from well-established universities, such as NUS, NTU, SMU and Waseda University.
Join us for some exciting cross-idea open conversations – take this as an opportunity to make friends with someone who shares the same interests as you, while getting to know the company representatives!
