I am a product manager for iOS app development at Rakuten TV, a video streaming service. My job is to determine what features should be added to the app in the future and how it should be improved. After graduating from Kanda Institute of Foreign Languages, I worked for domestic and international companies engaged in digital content distribution before joining Rakuten Group in 2020. In my current job, which has a marketing component, knowledge of data analysis and analysis is essential. I learned while being taught by my seniors in the field, but if you are going to work in the IT industry, I think it will be an advantage to acquire the knowledge to handle quantitative and qualitative data while you are still a student.
The product manager is like a hub that facilitates coordination with engineers and requires good communication skills. There are many foreign nationals on the team, and communication is in English. I obtained a TOEIC? score of 920 when I was a student, but I sometimes feel that I am not strong enough in the business aspect. However, I can say that what I learned as a student was worthwhile in terms of developing my base English skills. The knowledge and experience I gained in the Department of Digital Communication will surely be useful in whatever position I work in the future.
