I’m a bilingual recruiter that specializes and works with individuals focused around career growth. Would be happy to answer questions :)

Granted I came to Japan right out of university, but yes. I started as a recruiter and hated it, then worked at an Eikaiwa as an in-between before landing in marketing—what I’d hoped to do since uni. From there I’ve earned valuable experience in my field!

I’ve gone from teacher to L1 tech support to management as have many of my peers.

Well I’ve multiplied my income a few times over since I’ve been working here (~9 years). I am mixed race Japanese, mind.

in a corporate setting. no. in a personal business setting, yes.

I taught bass guitar and English in Japan for 23 years. Massive career growth.

If you keep changing jobs, eventually, you will find the one that you feel the most comfortable with. Been here for 5 years, first 3 worked was miserable in a Japanese company, now it’s been 1 year since I got hired by an international company and the differences are from day to night

Yes. Promoted twice, my salary increases every year.
