Companies that are open
to hiring you

Registering and talking to us is free. For the jobs we introduce, your adviser also helps you prepare documents and interviews at no charge.

What is H-bridge Career

Not a service that
only sends you listings.

We go through your major, your experience, your Japanese level and how you want to work, and think about your career in Japan together with you.

Alongside one-to-one support from your H-bridge adviser, you can also get information and advice from people who have already job-hunted in Japan and from others aiming for the same thing.

We also speak with each company directly, and check the things a job posting never tells you: how they think, and how they actually approach hiring international staff.

What we are aiming at is not just getting you an offer. It is helping you find a company that suits you, and work there with confidence for a long time.

Support that does not end at the offer.

Our Jobs

About the jobs we introduce

We do not simply republish job postings. H-bridge speaks with the company and checks what is behind them first.

01

Companies with a real reason to hire you

Not “because we are short of people”, but companies that have a reason for hiring international staff. We also check whether they have the structure to receive you.

  • Why the company hires international staff
  • Whether international colleagues are already there
  • What support exists after you join
  • A message from the person in charge
02

The things a posting does not tell you

Beyond the job title and the conditions, we make sure you can check what you will actually be asked to do, and how much Japanese it really needs, before you apply.

  • The posted role, and the actual work
  • The Japanese level the work requires
  • The experience and qualities they are looking for
  • Location, and whether relocation is expected
03

One adviser, from applying to after you join

For the jobs we introduce, the same adviser stays with you from preparing for selection through to questions after you have started. All of it is free.

  • Preparing your application documents
  • Interview preparation for that specific company
  • Arranging the selection schedule
  • Basic questions about residence status
  • Questions after you join
Support

Preparing for those jobs
is free.

For the jobs H-bridge introduces, your adviser helps you write your application documents and prepare for interviews, at no charge. We work from what that particular company cares about. We also answer basic questions about residence status as it relates to getting a job or changing jobs.

* If you would rather learn job hunting in Japan itself, systematically, before you have any target companies, we run H-bridge Academy (paid). Joining it is not a condition for job introductions.
* Where a formal immigration application or specialist procedure is needed, we will point you to a qualified professional such as an administrative scrivener. H-bridge does not file applications on your behalf.

FAQ

Common questions

Is there any cost?
For candidates, everything is free: registering, career consultations, job introductions, and preparing for the jobs we introduce.
Can I talk to you if my Japanese is below N2?
Yes. We go through your current level and the roles you want, and think about what you need to prepare. Which jobs you can apply to does depend on each company’s requirements.
I am still a student. Can I register?
Yes. We will tell you when to start job hunting and what to prepare, based on when you graduate.
Can I register before deciding on a role?
Yes. We go through your major, your experience, what you are good at and what interests you, and sort out which roles might suit you.
Will you introduce jobs straight away?
What we can introduce depends on your experience, your Japanese level, your conditions, and what companies are recruiting for at the time. This is not a service that guarantees a job or an offer.
Can I ask about residence status?
We answer basic questions related to getting a job or changing jobs. Where a specialist application or procedure is needed, we will point you to a professional.
Can I register from outside Japan?
Yes, if you want to work in Japan. Note that some positions are open only to people already living in Japan; requirements differ by company.
Does registering guarantee introductions?
No. Introductions depend on your experience, your Japanese level, your conditions and what companies are recruiting for. We do not guarantee introductions to everyone who registers.
Do you have a paid course?
We run H-bridge Academy (paid), where you practise job hunting in Japan from the basics. It is a separate service from the free support above. You do not need to join it in order to receive job introductions or help with selection.
Free Registration

Shall we talk about
your career in Japan?

It is fine if you have not decided what work you want yet. Together with your H-bridge adviser, and people who have already job-hunted here, let us work out what you need to prepare.
