Yeah, why doctor? They are in high demand, and you can actually work in public hospitals without citizenship, but you have to get the Japanese license and you have to be fluent in Japanese. Becoming a doctor and becoming fluent in Japanese takes years of hard work by themselves. Doing them together? I guess it's possible but you have to be super smart to pull it off. AND being bilingual isn't much of an advantage as a doctor. Your Japanese however will always be a handicap.

Media sounds like a better field for bilinguals. Even if the jobs are harder to come by, it's still easier than becoming a doctor in Japan, imo.
