Is it FREE?
A: Yes, it's FREE.
N.B. Our classifieds are intended for individuals (NOT corporations) to buy and sell things, make announcements, etc. specific to living in Japan. All ads that do not fit this criteria will be removed with or without notice.

MISCELLANEOUS
Q: I need a visa. Will GaijinPot sponsor me?
A: Our services do not extend to obtaining certificates or visas.
There are, however, companies that can help. To learn more about visas,
visit the Visa section or
the Forums section on GaijinPot.
Q: Can GaijinPot introduce jobs that are suitable
for my experiences?
A: GaijinPot is not a recruiter or outsourcing company.
We mainly specialize in providing Japan Job information to job-seekers around the globe.
Q: Do I need a college/university degree to work in Japan?
A:
As a rule of thumb, yes. Foreigners are not able to work in Japan without a Visa,
one of the criteria for getting a visa is to be a University Graduate.
Whilst a Working-Holiday Visa will allow you to work in Japan without a Degree from a University, the length of time you would be able to work is limited and the availability of Working-Holiday Visas is dependant on your Nationality.
A Spousal Visa will also allow you to work in Japan, however many employers mindful of the need to secure Visas for their staff limit their hiring to only those candidates who have graduated from University.
