Position: Consultant

Type: N/A
Location: Tokyo
Salary: N/A
Start Date: N/A
Overview:
So you’ve come to Japan via the JET program and you’re ready to move on from teaching, now what?
Your JET experience should have helped develop in you certain skills that are readily transferable to a variety of different careers. Your time management, cultural awareness, and communicative abilities (verbal and non-verbal) are only a few examples that immediately stand out. The main draw-back is that you have not been working in an office (business) environment and many employers are hesitant to take a chance on your cultural fit or ramp-up time at their organizations. This generally means that (1) they do not understand how your JET experience could benefit them and (2) they may not have an effective training program. When you consider a number of the organizations who are interested in hiring JET veterans, you will also notice that the pay is not all that great. Read More
