completely wrong! is too difficult to work in japan! bllsht
its easy only for eng / usa ppl who doesnt speak any language except own, quite lucky i guess! doesnt matter if they have degree or not company needs them and so provide them visa.many of those"special teachers"in own country maybe will be a simple public toilet cleaners!!
for other foreigners is really hard, company need high level of japanese and immigrations is crab,doesnt give visa! u have to find any other way to enter in japan!
Thanks for your thorough response. It is actually for some one other than myself that I am seeking information . Unfortunately, I fear my working/traveling days are behind me. Working is the operative word in the previous sentence. I will always love to travel myself. Thanks again, I will pass on the info. Spelling & grammar mistakes are made by all of us each day. :-)
I watched this with interest. I honestly wanted to learn about some of the hiring practices in Japan. I have to say, it is some what ironic that you question the integrity of a company that would hire a person with only a high school diploma & you post a video regarding such a topic as ESL, only to use incorrect spelling or improper word usage yourself. I am not trolling, just thinking maybe there are some who deserve a chance at employment who are automatically rejected.
@graemelockieable Sorry this is long. Hence 2 comments. I know. I should have proofread this video. I should have also included that you can't get a teaching visa without a college degree. If a school hires you without a college degree that means that they are either not getting you the proper visa or they are not going to get you a visa at all. Either situation means if you get caught, you will be the one who is arrested, detained, deported, and then banned from Japan for 5years or more.
@graemelockieable If you want to work in Japan with a HS degree, there are lots of options. Resorts, hotels, cruise ships, and the music and entertainment industry are good options. If you speak fluent Japanese, you can get a job as a translator. If you really want to teach, but can't get a job at a school, get a different job and then teach private English lessons on the side. Having a college degree doesn't make someone a good teacher nor does not having one make someone a had teacher.
ROFL,
" ....And this may sound a little rude, but if a school is willing to HIGHER an English teacher..."
Please tell me you are making a joke with the spelling of "hire" !

Agreed on reading the contract. Very important. Being able to read the contract was what allowed me to get out of my first job in Japan.
For what it's worth, probably not much, I have my last name in Katakana on my stamp.
