About the UMT Internship Program:

The UMT Internship Program is an 8-week paid intensive program commencing from 30th November 2026 until 22nd January 2027. This internship program offers passionate and talented individuals an opportunity to gain hands-on experience at a UNIQLO storefront. You will work with key leaders of our store management team to learn the fundamentals of a global apparel retailer and gain experience in the everyday operations of the store, including but not limited to customer service, leadership and staff development, and business analysis.

In addition to your responsibilities in-store, you will also be allocated a project to work on during your internship. Examples of past projects include increasing internal employee morale, increasing brand awareness to customers, improving app downloads and signage, and more. At the end of the program, you will present your findings to the store and corporate leaders!

This internship program is an excellent opportunity for individuals who are passionate about growing their career in store management as it offers the opportunity to be considered for our UNIQLO Management Candidate (UMC) Graduate Program. After completing the Internship program, you will attend an interview with the COO to assess your suitability for our UMC Graduate Program.

High performing interns will have the opportunity to participate in our Global Internship Program (GIP) which is a fully sponsored experience at UNIQLO’s Tokyo Headquarters!
