Please help me, I cant find anyone who knows what to do - 12-08-2010, 05:57 PM

Hey, Im a 20 year old Canadian Undergrad student and I want to work in Japan for about 3 moths starting in May. I know I can get a working holiday VISA but I want to find a job before I leave. I dont have a degree yet, so i know that is limiting. I just want a job that I will be able to live off of for those 3 months.
Nobody i ask knows what i should do,
Please help me out

Generally the jobs you would be looking for would not be jobs that require a degree. Who hires a nurse or a rocket scientist for three months? You are looking at probably hotel jobs where an in house English speaker could be helpful.

I know you have already checked here and called your local Japanese embassy or consulate, so I won't waste my time advising that.

In other words, you're asking us where you can find a job for 3 months?

Have you tried online classifieds?

Either way, I'd bring enough funds to support yourself for your 3 months in Japan. The country is in the middle of a recession and people are struggling to find work. Consider yourself lucky if you can find someone to hire you for a mere 3 months.
