It Started With A Dream
This is how I went from a nobody who could only dream about Japan to someone whose dream came true.
In the beginning, I was only a student from a high school in the countryside. At that time, I really liked watching anime, reading manga, and researching life and culture in Japan. I even set my goals to be able to speak Japanese and get a job in Japan. But, since there was neither a Japanese class, a Japanese club, nor a friend or senior that is interested in Japan, I could only learn Japanese by myself.
Learning Japanese With FAST OFFER
After entering college, I found the ASIA to JAPAN’s FAST OFFER International program, including the free Japanese classes. They said that this is a great chance to not only learn about the Japanese language and its culture but also get a job in Japan. I was really happy about that. And then I submitted the registration form instantly. With a great sensei and kind friends, I felt that it was easier to understand Japanese.
From reading hiragana and katakana, learning some grammar, remembering kanji, practicing talking to each other, etc., I really like how sensei taught us Japanese. Since my sensei had lived in Japan, we occasionally talked about it and got some insight from it.
Preparing For Job Hunting
Although I had so many things to do at that time, I really enjoyed my time in that class. Once I passed the Japanese class, I was asked to prepare some documents, including self-promotional videos (PR videos), final year project (FYP) or a project that you have done before, motivation letter, etc. Since those documents are used to promote you to the companies, make sure to make the best appealing. So, you could easily be noticed by the companies.
After being selected for interviews, FAST OFFER’s staff also helped me so much with the interview preparation. I’m extremely grateful to the mentor they provided, who intensely helped me at that time. Not only did it help me with practicing interviews, but FAST OFFER’s staff also reminded me of the schedule, things, or steps that I should do, etc.
In the end, I want to thank all of ASIA to JAPAN and FAST OFFER International Program (formerly Study Go Work JAPAN Program) staff for helping me achieve my dream of working in Japan.
