For that reason, you should systematically take the Japanese Proficiency Level Test and conduct industry research and a self-analysis. During school summer and winter breaks, you should actively participate in company briefing sessions, workplace experience programs, and internships to prepare yourself for completing application forms, written tests, and interviews.  \nPOINT  \n\n| 2\u003Cbr>Acquire Japanese language skills for business situations |\n| --- |\n| What companies look for in international students are their \"Japanese language skills\" and \"communication skills\".
