"For foreigners, the jobs that are most available are English teaching or tutoring jobs. There are some coding jobs available, but they are not as abundant as English teaching jobs. If you want something that is not English teaching or if you want to move up the ranks, you will need to learn Japanese. Most people get there first job in Japan through online applications. After you get to Japan and have been living there for awhile, there are more opportunities for you. The hard part is getting into Japan," explained one expat living in Tokyo, Japan.
