I strongly recommend coming here on a tourist visa, and then looking for a job while you're here. Looking for jobs from abroad will severely narrow down your options and likely at a lower salary.
Wow, this thread really ran in all directions heh.

I thank you and everyone else for the advice.

Do you really think that going there on a tourist visa is easier than going through a recruiting program? I didn't realize there were that many English teaching gigs outside of the big guys.

I have only been a nurse for a year now and do not have a huge amount of experience. Funnily enough, I do currently work in a nursing home. I do in fact enjoy it. I almost prefer the elderly.

I think I once read that getting a job as a nurse in Japan requires passing a certain level of the JLPT.
