- Current students
Rakuten's global graduates site is the entry point for students who want to join the group in Japan, and it announced that summer internship applications for 2028 joiners are open. The internship sits alongside the new graduate recruiting the same site describes.
New graduate hiring is split into two families. Business positions are "for those who want to deepen their understanding of the entire Rakuten Group and aim for versatile career development", covering comprehensive business, organisation and job specific courses, fintech, design and marketing. Engineer positions are "for those who aspire to become world-class engineers", with tracks for applications engineers, infrastructure engineers, data scientists and researchers, and security engineers. Rakuten posts separate application windows for its April and October entry intakes, so the site is worth rechecking for the current cycle, and it does not publish the internship's duration or allowance on the overview page.
