Are you a foreigner or expatriate in Japan who is looking for a job? Do you find it difficult and need help? A recruitment agency can surely help you.
What is a recruitment agency? A recruitment agency is a business firm that helps a hiring company find the best-qualified candidate or helps an applicant land the most suitable job. How does this benefit both company and applicant?
For the company, the agency helps them to save their time and effort, reaching the company’s target result, like able to hire a successful candidate in a shorter period and spend less in advertising their job posts.
For the applicant, it gives its service for free and enables one to apply to different positions and the company even with just one application because of the agency’s large network of employers.
What job do seekers need to do?
First, submit an application paper, like a comprehensive vitae or resume and other required documents, for forthcoming opportunities. The recruiter in the recruitment agency will then identify the skills and qualifications based on one’s work history and education and refer the candidate to the company requiring the additional manpower, and then, arrange an interview with them.
Once the application is successful, they can help the candidate with the salary and compensation negotiation.
As a foreigner or ex-pat in Japan, most likely the recruitment agency can give you additional information about the company who will hire you. Rather than experience all the hurdles in applying for a job, why not consider the services Japan’s recruitment agency offers?

If you are a job seeker or planning to apply for a job in Japan, kindly take note of the following tips.
Tips to Avoid Fraudulent Agencies
-
Avoid unsafe websites.
Even if you are just browsing a website, you can be in danger if the web address is not safe. You can use Google Safe Browsing technology to keep you from unsafe websites. Always check the URL to avoid phishing sites.
-
Check the website’s content.
A legitimate recruitment agency openly provides information about their business, contact information, and other necessary details. For example, if the company gives an address in Japan or a phone number, confirm if it is true. -
Verify recruitment agency’s licenses.
Check the recruitment agency’s certificates and ask for their government license number and verify it. If the agency can’t provide these, that is a red flag. -
Be wary of an unbelievable job offer.
Some applicants fell into prey to job offers that sound too promising with the hopes of getting their dream job. If it is too promising and tempting, tell yourself to stop – it’s a trap. -
Don’t pursue if it asks for fees in exchange for a job.
Remember, recruitment agencies are paid by the hiring companies and should not charge any amount to applicants. -
Check the email address.
Trusted agencies use company email address like for example, name@fairness-world.com. Also, you will be addressed by your real name, not only with a Dear Mr. or Dear Candidate. -
Don’t give irrelevant information.
A legit recruitment agency will only ask for other information not found in your application paper once hired by the hiring company.
Finding a job in Japan can be tiring yet rewarding, as long as you are in the right recruitment agency. The list of agencies above are just a few of thousands of agencies in Japan but you can be assured that you won’t regret taking the advice.
But how to stand out among all other applicants, because they no doubt receive a pool of applications each day?
- Create an appealing and strong portfolio. Show your past achievements, be it in paper or electronic or better, online like LinkedIn.
- Craft a unique resume, not a generic one that is similar to others. You can show your character and personality and highlight your strongest skills. Add a list of certifications, if you have. An infographic resume has been a trend nowadays and became an effective eye-catcher.
- Study and learn about Japan and its culture. Some enroll in Japanese language school first before they apply for work, which may be more advantageous on your part.
- Be honest. Though you want to impress them, avoid any pretensions.
Again, are you a foreigner or expatriate job seeker in Japan? Be confident and trust, that your first step in finding a job through a recruitment agency will be successful.
