Professional Development

Global Talent programme is not an

opportunity whose sole purpose is

earning money or travelling.

WHYProgramme Benefits

Cross-cultural Experiences

Students who join the programme will

have the chance to live abroad, thereforebe able to learn and understand deeply

about culture, history, architecture,

cuisine, language, economy and the

people in the host country.

They will also be able to widen their

travel abroad.

In Viet Nam, the phenomenon of

globalization has both brought out

opportunities and posed the country

numerous challenges for the past few years.

One of the highlighted challenges is that the

current workforce for management level do

not usually possess a global mindset due to

the lack of international working experience.

Young Vietnamese people who join Global

Talent programme will gain practical

working experience in an international

environment, which will be a strategic move

on their career journey. Because these

experiences will work to their advantages

when they apply to multinational companies

or executive positions.

a permanent career placement or a medium

for any person to permanently leave their

country. If the company or organization

basis in the host country, AIESEC will have no

Marketing Global Talent

Think global act local

Think global, act local is a well-used slogan, and it sums

up the nature of engaging in global marketing. Culture

clash, global blunders and technological barriers are the

most challenging things that any marketer will encounter

when they work abroad.

Global Talent programme in the field of Marketing,

therefore, offers young people the chance to challenge

their limits when they have to familiarise themselves with

languages, culture, tradition, economic conditions, social

issues, symbolism of the country as even colors can

make a difference. In the U.S., white is a color for purity; in

Japan, it represents death. Red connotes danger in the

U.S., but it symbolizes luck in China.

Popular countries for Marketing internship include Japan,

Indonesia, India and Turkey.

I start to build my future

career with the very first

stones from Global Talentprogramme

In the first week, I only stayed at International Affairs office

and had some short talks with one or two people. They

helped me to understand the company and shared withme many things about living and travelling in Nagoya.

From the second week, I went out with people in Sales

department. The job of staff in Sales department is to meet

customers and negotiate about the chemical products of

Tsuchiya. Their main customer is Toyota and thats the great

reason why I had a wonderful internship. I had the chance

to visit so many museums as well as so many plants of

Toyota. Thanks to this internship, I gazed with my own eyes

the incredible manufacturing process of Toyota, with lots of

automatic robots. Besides, I also viewed many newest

model cars of this famous group and even sat on a modern

model, which is going to be used in the future. Thats about

Toyota and of course, Tsuchiya didnt connect me to only

Toyota. The customers of Tsuchiya are other big groups such

as Denso, Nissan, Brother, Canon etc. The more customers

Tsuchiya have, the more museums, companies, factories

you can visit.

When I was small, I had a dream to visit Japan and thanks

to this internship, my dream already came true. Japanese

are truly hospitable and amiable, to the point my eyes

often went teary receiving their kindness.

opportunities to discover and develop your potential. Although an internship abroad is an essential part of the

experience you can gain in AIESEC, it is closely linked to other experiences rather than separated from them.

Throughout the program, you will meet and connect with AIESECers from around the world, participate in local

AIESEC conferences if they are available, and develop yourself through challenges you face during your

internship. As our program is aimed at personal development through connecting with communities and AIESEC

chapters abroad, you will get a unique experience with exchange participants who come from all around the

world.
