Frequently Asked Questions

What are the requirements for a standard working visa (White-Collar)?
For the standard "Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services" visa, you generally need a Bachelor's degree (or higher) from a recognized university, OR 10+ years of documented professional experience in your specific field, along with a firm job offer from a Japanese company.
Do you support "Blue-Collar" or Specialized Skills workers?

Yes! The "Specified Skilled Worker" (SSW / Tokutei Ginou) program is expanding rapidly. We help candidates match with employers in authorized fields, including Hospitality, Construction, Manufacturing, Transportation, and more.

Do I need to pass JLPT N1 or N2 to find a job?
It depends on the visa and sector. Traditional corporate roles usually require N2 or N1. However, IT, engineering, and global recruitment sectors often accept English speakers. For the SSW (Blue-Collar) visa, passing the JLPT N4 or JFT-Basic is usually sufficient.
What are "Rirekisho" and "Shokumukeirekisho"?
A Rirekisho is a standard Japanese resume showing your educational and employment timeline. A Shokumukeirekisho is a detailed curriculum vitae explaining your specific skills and projects. We provide expert support in formatting both to meet Japanese corporate standards.
