Are there any jobs that pay well to Americans wanting to live there? If so could you please tell me? It would mean the world to me for your assistance.


If I didn't love Japan, I'd be stark raving mad to join a place as cool as this

Probably an English-language teacher.

I'm visiting Tokyo for 2 weeks in December. And last time I was in Tokyo I was 10 so I don't remember much..

Is there a good area for the hotel I'll choose to stay at to be located? I want it closer the center.

I'll be with friends that are fluent at speaking Japanese, and I know Japanese myself, so it shouldnt be too much of a problem and my friends know the areas and everything but I also have another question, do you happen to know any "specific" place I can find drifters? I mean skilled ones.

Also, any restaurants you recommend? I'm not a fan of exquisite seafood, but a wide variety of different dishes or a good sushi restaurant? Ah, and a nice bar ^^"

onegai shimasu!

Hello
I have two questions.

1. I was wondering if Japan offers help to people who come to Japan for work. Like some country's help out with housing or offer courses at reduced prices, ... things like that.
If so is there a website that gives that information?

2. I am wondering if I would be able to find a job at all. I have no bachelor or university degree at all. Just a high school diploma.
However my native language is Dutch, my English is pretty good i think, i speak French and understand German perfectly (just can not write it or speak it very well). Atm I am trying to learn Japanese, just started though.
I usually work as a secretary or in administration but some of my past jobs were a bit more creative like moderating a forum and updating a website and adjusting graphics for it.
Also I am eager to learn new things and find learning easy.
Will I have a hard time finding a job?
Will I need to take courses or do something extra?


Thank you in advance.

You could look at places like

Work in Japan for Bilingual Professionals : CareerCross

If you are an IT guy it is pretty easy. Other then that it would be hard. You could only get a visa by marrige. After the english teachers ruined it in Japan I dont think Japan is even giving humanitarian visas anymore.
