I said my friend Niall came to Japan without a visa and got a job as a teacher in a business school in Shinjuku.
To tell people that you NEED a visa to get a decent job in Japan is lying. Fact is, you DON'T If you've got some wit & you're savvy or handsome/pretty (mixture of both works best) then I consider it pretty easy to get a job teaching or doing something like PR, modelling etc...
All the other people I work with at the university have degrees. It's none of your business which university that is.
As I said i'll reply to each post after work. But i'd like to know everyone else's background. What makes you such an authority on this topic??

What you mean by "savvy" generally means dishonest. Yes, anyone can buy a degree, or forge documents for employment history, or they can find employers who will do this for them (which is how many Filipinas and Koreans are able to work in the sex trade). But, if you do this on your own, you run the strong risk of being found out and put in a rather nasty cell at the immigration detention center in Shinagawa. If you employer fudges your paperwork for you, he can easily turn you in if you offend him, and then blame you for lying to him when you applied for the job.
A few years ago many people came to Japan with fake degrees which they bought from "degree mills". These people found work in various companies and schools, including several universities. But something happened, and a few people were found out. An investigation followed, and many people ended up being deported for using fake documents.
The economy is suffering in Japan at the moment, and it will get worse before it gets better. When I renewed my visa last week, there were demonstrators outside the office yelling about how foreigners were taking jobs away from Japanese. Many Japanese that I know have been "downsized", meaning that their working hours/days have been cut, or that they have been forced to take a reduction in salary (some by as much as 50%). But the real layoffs and downsizing probably have yet to occur, and when this happens, there will likely be little to no demand for foreign workers, and those that are here will may very well end up losing their jobs to Japanese who are able to do the same work.
You can keep trolling if you like, but you should change your name from "killyoself" back to "john thomas".
