Selected students who should be fluent in spoken Japanese, will be sent to Japan for one year to study and work for 7-Eleven stores in Tokyo.
The interns will be trained in store management skills, and given chances to visit factories that make products for 7-Eleven stores.
7-Eleven will also collaborate with Ohara Gakuen, a Tokyo-based college, to offer bookkeeping courses in Japanese in Vietnam targeting potential interns.
The group has approximately 20,000 convenience stores across Japan, with 6.5% of its workforce, or 24,000, being foreigners as of August, 2017. Vietnamese make up about a fifth of these foreign workers.
