Important Dates

Below are some important dates on our upcoming Recruiting and Training calendars.

Generally, from mid-December through late March, and again from June through to August, we are fully focused on recruiting within Japan with multiple weekend interview dates in select cities including Sapporo, Sendai, Tokyo, Shizuoka, Okayama, Hiroshima, Fukuoka and of course here at our head office in Nagoya and our Kansai office in Osaka. However, we will still accept applications and conduct interviews on an ongoing basis and as needed.

In May and June, and again in October and November, we typically hold interviews for overseas applicants in cities such as London, Brisbane, Melbourne, Los Angeles, Portland, Seattle, Denver, Chicago, Cincinnati, New York, Charlotte, Tampa and Austin.

We are now accepting all overseas applications
Interviews will be conduted online via Google Meet
Please be aware that COE and visa processing times must be taken into consideration when considering potential starting dates and positions

Successful applicants can expect longer than usual processing times for COE and visa applications at this time. This is likely a result of Japan lifting its strict entry restrictions put in place during the coronavirus pandemic. Your patience and understanding are appreciated.
