Jobs in Japan - 06-03-2008, 07:12 PM

I know I sound like everyone else out there, but it is my dream and goal to move to Japan once I can afford it after college. Something that can be unsettling for me however is that I have absolutely no idea of what types of jobs there are in Japan, especially those in high demand or one they would be likely to hire a foreigner for. Besides teaching English of course. I talked to my aunt (she teaches English as a second language here in America) and she says that as far as she knows, it's not realistic to make a career out of teaching English over there, and that most people would only go there for a year, teach, and then come back.

So I guess I have two questions: what types of jobs are there in Japan, and is my aunt right?

~Thanks!
