June 4th<\/sup> ~ 8th<\/sup>, 2018<\/p>\n

From June 4th<\/sup> to the 5th<\/sup>, nine students, five from Tokyo University of Foreign Studies (TUFS), and another four from TUFS\u2019 partner universities in Russia, participated in group-work-oriented internships at Deloitte & Touche CIS, in Moscow. \u00a0The students from the partner universities plan to attend the Russo-Japanese Business Summer School to be held the following month at TUFS.<\/p>\n

Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Co., Ltd. is a multinational corporation which is considered to be one of the four largest accounting firms in the world, and employs over 240,000 specialists throughout the world.\u00a0 The corporation is affiliated with local firms in over 150 countries.\u00a0 Deloitte & Touche CIS maintains offices in seven major cities in Russia, with over 2,100 specialists focused on business development.<\/p>\n

There is an increasing diversity in the kinds of Japanese companies which are entering the Russian Market, with an increasing number of Japanese companies looking to resource-rich Russia as a stable market. \u00a0Deloitte CIS provides services to Japanese companies in the form of accounting oversight, crisis management, taxes, consulting, financial management, and legal affairs.<\/p>\n

On the first day of the internship, the students were first introduced to the day-to-day affairs of the firm, the roles played by each department, and the corporate strategy.\u00a0 Following that, students engaged in group activities involving simulating projects at the firm.\u00a0 Additionally, they learned about how to deal with clients, business risk, and career development.<\/p>\n

On the second day, the students gained insight into the differences between Russian and Japanese business culture by practicing writing resumes in Russian, and through instruction in how to behave in a Russian-language interview.\u00a0 This instruction included advice on how to answer questions, what to expect one\u2019s interviewer to pay attention to, and so forth.<\/p>\n

On the third day, students got instruction on self-analysis.\u00a0 This analysis consisted of dividing human character and business qualities into four archetypes, that of the Driver, the Pioneer, the Integrator, and the Guardian.\u00a0 Students learned about the elements of each archetype, and looked at what archetype they themselves belonged to.<\/p>\n

On the fourth day, students attended lectures on the development of Japanese companies in the Russian market, on the business environment, and changes in the image of Japanese companies in Russia.\u00a0 The Japanese students then paired up with Russian students, and shared ideas about how Japanese companies entering the Russian market can deal with problems they encountered, as well as idea about future business opportunities.<\/p>\n

Finally, each student gave a presentation on their experiences in the internship, and capped the day off with a quiz covering the material they had learned over the past five days.\u00a0 Below are the impressions of the students who participated:<\/p>\n
