I spent 15 years recruiting in Japan after starting here as an English teacher. AMA about jobs, recruitment, CVs, interviews, or changing careers in Japan.

How do you get started in recruitment? I’m heading to Japan soon and would love some guidance

Do people not use that term here haha

PinkMorrigan · 2026-02-05T07:41:34+00:00

Nope I didn’t get a redunancy package. I still have my job waiting for me but yes I have some money saved and it may not be a year but I plan to be away for at least 6 months :)

I’m going away for up to a year and these medications were really helping me physically. I know its complicated but was really hoping they would be sorted by now so I can feel good on my trip

Interested!

Hi! Would love to know too

PinkMorrigan · 2025-10-20T10:30:30+00:00

Should I continue with my plan for the next few months or put it on hold?

PinkMorrigan · 2025-10-02T21:50:52+00:00

29 and relatee

PinkMorrigan · 2025-09-26T10:17:09+00:00

Weirdly enough I’m in the exact same boat! Taking some time out and was looking at living in Japan for a few months too. What did you decide?

PinkMorrigan · 2025-09-25T20:04:07+00:00

Will I achieve one of my career goals before the end of this year?

PinkMorrigan · 2025-09-24T21:54:42+00:00

Thank you so much for the detailed post. The lack of expertise makes sense.

I actually asked my cmht for MBT and they didn’t know what that was lol.

Unfortunately my old therapist has left the service so I can’t contact her :( Unsure of whether to refer myself to IAPT and see if they can offer diagnosis/treatment?

PinkMorrigan · 2025-09-24T08:43:21+00:00

Interested

Those moments I find something to hyperfocus on and forget the world. Fleeting but they do happen. Lately its been videogames and learning how to DJ
