What kind of work are you looking for? Because anything other than teaching English, and you will need to be pretty darn good. Unless of course you have a special skill, like engineering or something and work for a company that transfers you here. But just coming here and trying to find a (good) job outside of teaching English and you will probably need to be at JLPT level 1 (which probably takes most determined and dedicated learners about 4-5 years to pass).
