Isn't Japan just like any other country? If you want to live there, you gotta have a degree, be fluent in Japanese, etc?

I am thinking of looking for a host family(homestay). What is the best use of this? I mean, what do people normally do while living with a host family? Are they on holidays? Or maybe they are looking for a job?

So basically what do people do if they live with a host family?
If I can do it, anyone can. Host families are generally for students, not for working folks. You can't really come to Japan and look for a job and expect to be hired. Most people are recruited in their home country and then movie to Japan. Look at things like the JET Program.

anyone in business with his brain cells working knows to hire more qualified workforce.
sounds like japan is a special case from the rest of the world were ones skills and abilities are not a higher value to the company than being a native worker.
if they are as you say - not interested in foreigners - then, well, thats just stupid on so many levels.

so....im going on a leap and say you actually dont have a clue about things like that
That's not what he said at all. Japan is not Europe where you have dozens of countries all crowded together with open borders. Japan is an island country that was literally separated from the rest of the world for hundreds of years. No one asked you to like it.
