Hey,
I'm from Germany, so forgive me if my english isn't perfect^^

I'm working in the Hotelservices/Hotelmanagement right now. And I thought what the Chances are to work in Japan for a while.
I clearly don't want to live in Japan for a long time. (The Bug Thread was to scary xD). But to learn the manners and the .. Politeness from the japanese People and Hotelworkers would be really helpful for my professional Career, I think.

So how are the Chances for an Internship maybe?! I haven't forget about the language. I still have 1 or 2 years in Germany to work. So there's Time to learn japanese properly. (and to improve my English of course xD)

Maybe you have worked for a while in Japan?

Is a working holiday visa an option for you?

Sorry, I was working for the past days and couldn't answer.
Ehm, sure. I looked it up on the Internet and wikipedia said, there are a few working fields where you can't work with the Visa, like Bars and Clubs. Does it include Hotels?

You should be able to work at a hotel with a Working Holiday Visa, as I believe that's where a lot of WHV workers work. Not all countries have them for Japan, but if Germany does, then that is a great option.
