The way I figure it, jobs in Japan fall into seven categories 1. High level corporate. Technology. 3. Sales and Recruiting. Teaching English. Washing dishes. Actually, I had seven in mind, but it was late at night when I started this and then I fell asleep on the floor with a glass of white wine and some Calbees potato chips, so I ended up typing something like 6.

First, let me tell you how I ended up working in Japan. See, back in the U. S., I had this swanky corporate gig, with a big office, a desk with two computers, and a phone with all these buttons that lit up. The high point of my day was pretty much going to Starbucks. Thats known as an off site meeting. Then the economy went to hell, the companys stock crashed, and since I was bored anyway, I thought, Great, why not get the same job in Japan  Salaryman has such a glamorous ring to it. So I sent off a few resumes, and Boom, immediately landed a slew of videoconference interviews. They all sounded good. Work in Roppongi, live in a nice apartment, make a lot of money. Im a big fan of money, as it allows me to do things like buy cars, stylish clothes, and eat. But I also kept hearing something that sounded ominous. For my first interview, I wore a red tie and sat in this giant videoconference room in L. A. that the company had rented to talk to me. I figured red would show up better on screen. Fresh Off The Boat Putlockers Season 3. Then from somewhere on the other side of the Pacific ocean, three serious looking Japanese people in suits appeared on the TV and asked me questions. At one point, the interviewer said, Are you familiar with the phrase, work life balanceOf course, I replied. Well, we dont have that. Work is our priority. Thats fine with me, I lied. After that, I wore a blue tie. But no matter what color I pulled out of my closet, the same theme kept emerging. And since Id already had my share of stressful jobs, I was starting to think more along the lines of, Come to Japan and work in a surf shop. You know, listen to the waves while showing college girls in bikinis how to wax boards. I mean, who wants to wear a suit and sit at a desk all day  That sucks. Nobodyd be able to see my washboard abs. So that avenue didnt really seem like it was panning out. Screw it, I thought, Ill just go teach English. I did of course consider some of the other available options. Technology Jobs in Japan. If youre a programmer for a language in demand, or you have some other specific technical skill, theres a reasonable chance you can land a job in Japan. Here, the need is often for someone who speaks English, and enough Japanese to get by. Japan already has plenty of programmers. Tech jobs for foreigners are often in international companies, where they need someone who can communicate with their counterparts in English, possibly provide tech support in English, and also speak enough Japanese to get along in the office environment. Nobody wants you to put the coffee scoop into the tea pot. Japanese people hate when that happens. I never really considered this option, since in the past Id been a programmer in the States, and I knew what that entailed. Its just like the swanky corporate job, only with less money and more time hunched over a computer screen. More mousepad, less bikinis. So that was definitely out. Recruiting and Sales Jobs in Japan. This is what you do when youre done teaching English. You recruit other people to teach English. Training may also be part of the job, which is where you take a group of jet lagged college grads whose last job was scooping ice cream and explain to them the intricacies of teaching English in a day and a half. Poof, now youre qualifiedgood luckRecruiters may also fill other positions, working on commission. Textbook sales is another variation on this theme, as is importing used cars to Okinawa and selling Chinese Rolexes on the street. These jobs are generally not available from overseas, and most of the people who do them seem to wear faded suits and sweat profusely. I dont like to sweat, as it messes up my hair, so I ruled out this category as well. Washing Dishes in Japan. If youre from some place like Britain, you may be able to get a Working Holiday visa in Japan. For other nationalities, a Student visa will allow you to work part time. There are plenty of foreigners schlepping tables in restaurants and manning the register of the neighborhood convenience store. I briefly considered enrolling in a language school full time, particularly one near the beach so I could work in a surf shop, which would have been sweet. But when I looked at the cost of language school, it was like paying money to come to Japan, rather than making money. And that didnt sound good at all. So teaching English it was. How to get a Job Teaching English in Japan. This is a very simple process involving only two steps 1. Have a Bachelors degree or higher. Be from a country other than Japan. Speaking English, surprisingly enough, isnt actually a requirement, which is blatantly apparent when you see some of the English teachers here. So while those two things are actually enough, let me give you five more you might want to think about 3. This isnt really a how to item, but its certainly important to keep in mind. And that is  Have a plan. Yeah okay, I know Im not exactly the best person to give advice on this. Again, details.   Anyway, think about what youre going to do after teaching English. Because theres very little chance for advancement in Japan, and many people get stuck with a meager salary that only affords enough money for potato chips and wine. Not to say that Calbees black pepper chips arent great with chardonnay, because they are, although not as much as the limited edition hot and spicy chips were. Jeez, excuse me for a minute while I run to the convenience store. Movie Reviews The New York Times.
