Overview:
The 2015 JET Program application period has begun and we expect another busy fall. Last year several thousand applications were received and we need your help! Each year, the JET Program Office Application Processing Staff is a mix of JET alumni and Japanese citizens. It’s the most hectic time of year for the JET Office but we always have fun reminiscing about our JET days while we sort through the thousands of applications. It’s also a great opportunity to practice Japanese while you work, as we usually have several native Japanese speakers who work with us.
This is a great opportunity for new JET returnees who have not yet found full-time work and are looking to meet new people. For other JET alumni – even if you are already employed, if your job allows you to work part-time, working either the morning or afternoon shift only IS an option!
Japanese citizens and FOJs (Friends of JET) living in the DC area: we’d love for you to join us as well, so please let us know if you’re interested. We will need application processing staff this year from late-October through early-January 2015. Read More
