• American Chamber of Commerce in Japan offers a resume service for job and internship hunters.  They have a new Job database to which you can subscribe for free and get company notices of openings via email.
• KOPRA - a German business association provides a page for Internships in Japan with German companies. A lot of the information is in German but scroll down for the English. There is an updated and complete contact information for each current listing.
  　
• Access Navigator has a list of Japanese companies currently seeking internships.  All information is in Japanese, and the list is divided into industry sectors.
• A companion page to Access is provided by JMAM Internships.  They have an English guide to their website, but the details and positions are in Japanese.  You can enter your information for companies seeking an intern to find you, and approach the various companies hoping to find an intern.  You can do that in English.
