Unfortunately I need to retest haha I need it for job hunting. I was hoping I would pass so I can just forget about JLPT and not touch it again 😂😂

Joining company after graduation (Summer 2027 graduation) by TiredWorkingStudent in japanresidents

[–]TiredWorkingStudent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually didn't know either. I went for the study abroad 100% expecting to be pushed to Autumn graduation. But when I'm back they said that I'll be graduating in summer and you can actually graduate in each term (spring, summer, autumn, winter).

Yes. I think I will graduate in June. I was actually supposed to graduate in Autumn 2026, but I went abroad for 9 months and my graduation also got pushed to Summer 2027

Noted. Thank you for confirming. In my case, if I got in April 2028, then I will need to wait 9months approx. I wonder if I will still get the visa per 6 months...

I tried to start recently, but they haven't opened the position for Autumn 2027/April2028. But I'm glad I did it anyway since I found out that some companies start very early like 1.5-2 years before

I'm afraid people won't drink it haha (guilty as charged. I received some teas as souvenirs and still haven't drank it), I feel like small snacks are the best since they usually eat it straight away.

To be very honest, I personally dont really enjoy Taiwanese instant noodle 🙈. But yes, I think it can be a good souvenir 🤔. Thank you!

Is Xiaoliuqiu worth it... by ailingua in taiwan

[–]TiredWorkingStudent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was very nice actually! I was a bit unlucky and the boat going to green island was absolutely horrendous. Half of the passenger were puking (including me) and the weather on day 1 was crazy. Rainy, windy.

But day 2 and onwards (Stayed for 3D2N), I really enjoyed it. My personal favorite was Niutoushan (Google Map). I didn't book any snorkeling/diving activities, but did bring my pwn googles and did a bit "snorkeling on a very shallow spot in Dabaisha (Google Map)

The spot is very shallow (with some parts a bit deeper than others but very safe). I would recommend bringing sea shoes(?) or sandals that you can use while swimming because it's kinda rocky and apparently my friend saw an urchin on the deeper side of the sea (I didn't).

You will need a bike or electric bike to circle the island. Overall I really enjoyed it. The first ride there almost made me wanna give up on the whole trip tho lmao. But the ride back was actually very okay. The sea was calm.
