QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Frequently asked questions
Can I join if my English is still developing?
If you are interested in working in English, ask about requirements at an event. Listings distinguish reading/writing roles from speaking roles. Eligibility depends on the company.
Do I need to travel overseas?
We plan to cover Japan-based, overseas and fully remote roles. Check each company’s location and time-zone conditions, including whether you can work from Japan.
Can I apply through this site?
