A Guide to working in Japan

This guide is from my own experience for looking for work in Japan and also helping a friend of mine find a job.

Japan is a very expensive country so make sure you have enough money to at least last you 3 to 6 months. Depending on the type of work you a willing to take depends on the time of year you should come to Japan.

If you would like to be an English teacher in a school or an ALT then you need to find out the times in the year when the schools finish and start and start applying for work about 3 months before they start and finish. I.E Term times are normally that of the American school calender from the beginning in late August and concluding in mid June for international schools and for Japanese schools the terms start on April 1 st to mid-July. here are some job websites you may be interested in.

The reason I have talked about becoming an English teacher is that it is far the easiest way to get in to Japan.
