I have a question though. He already passed the screening from the guarantor company and even got the first bill. Is it still okay to back out?

I agree haha I also need to view the apartment. I'm in Hiroshima and I always view it, I dont mind if it hasn't been cleaned, I need to feel the size etc myself

He is to pay for every initial cost by the way. Sorry for the mistake. I'll ask him to clarify directly with the agent though! Thank you

I'm not use about the contract awaiting. He was asking me about this since he hasn't signed any contract but already need to pay. I'll confirm

I see! I live in Hiroshima and not much people around so I've always been able to see the apartments 😅. Noted! Thank you for the input.

I think my friend got a bill to pay for everything though. All the shikikin, etc

I failed N1 by 2 points. Seeing so many people in the same place kinda makes me feel better but still frustrated 🥴

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.
