“After becoming a GCW participant, I gained an understanding of how to attract the eyes of recruiters, not only for internationalization activities, but for other recruiting activities such as scholarships and internships.”

“I got many benefits after joining GCW. Starting from making a CV, I gained knowledge about the structure and content of a good CV, then making a motivation letter, I became more aware of how to make a motivation letter that was able to convince recruiters to accept me in an internationalization program, and from an English interview simulation, I know what my strengths and weaknesses are when conducting interviews and how to answer questions from interviewers well. Lastly, the explanation about IELTS made me know what I had to practice to take the test.”
