We post a lot of jobs and other work opportunities on JetWit. Occasionally I happen hear from JET alums I know that they got a job from a posting on JetWit, or they picked up freelance translation work perhaps.
Anecdotal is nice, but I’d like to get a more concrete sense of how helpful the site has been for finding work or income.
So if you’ve found a job or work opportunity or even a volunteer opportunity through a posting on JetWit, I’d like to ask you to write a short post about it here. Or feel free to put it in an e-mail to jetwit [at] jetwit [dot] com.
Thanks and yoroshiku.
