I have a national diploma and and in my final year of uni so will have a ba honers degree by june so qualifications arn't a problem
Can you speak Japanese to a relatively fluent level though? That will seriously affect what job you can get and whether or not you can live there.
What Im really having trouble with is where to lok for a job Iv looked through agencies like jet but as they only offer a max of 3 years its not really what im looking for kinda want something more perminant yo9ou know
It depends what sort of career you are looking for. To teach in Japan on a permanent basis you will need a genuine teacher's qualification; not just a TEFL certificate. Jet now offers up to 5 years. To get any other job, you again will need strong ~business~ japanese or else be experienced, gifted and/or lucky enough for a company to take you on.
Just wondering if anyone can help me in my job search it would be great also iv had a look and im pretty sure that i dont but if im going to tokyo for a week i dont need to apoply for a visa do I You won't need a visa if you're only going for a week, but honestly, do you REALLY think a week long visit is long enough for you to make the decision to move your whole life to the other side of the world? Have you been to Japan before. Just FYI, I know dozens of people who lived there for a YEAR and still aren't sure if they'd settle there permanently. Not to burst your bubble or anything, but don't set yourself up for a dumb and expensive mistake.
As for finding a Job, you can search on

GaijinPot: Jobs, Apartments, and Information for living in Japan but be warned; the working visa issue is tricky. Most companies advertising for hire want employees already IN Japan, with a valid -working- visa. Some will sponsor you for the visa, and you can always ask, but some just don't want the hassle. The easiest way to find a job probably is from inside the country.
