Career development & Job hunting

Job hunting in Japan

Recently more international students are willing to work in Japan after graduation. With the rapid progress in globalization, businesses are actively hiring more and more international students. But a job-hunting process in Japan is very complicated. Normally, it starts about one year before graduation. To land on a job you want, it is crucial that you understand the processes and be well prepared before starting your job-hunt. International students might struggle due to the language barrier (you should bear in mind that most companies emphasize the Japanese language skills.) or overlap between the thesis writing period and job-hunting period.
