    This looks like becoming a regular event and at the time of writing there are 20 companies scheduled for the Osaka fair and 30 for the Tokyo one, according to http://www.jobfair.jp/jp/

    A shame it’s only those two cities – hopefully if it proves popular it will spread to other areas.

    JetWit just posts the information. We’re not connected with the job fair in any way.

    I’ve had a few people communicate with me by typing into the “leave a reply” box. However, that’s for putting a comment on the post (like this one).

    To clarify, if you want to know anything about the job fair itself, you need to go to its website and contact the people there.
