What about competition for Jobs in Japan?
Here comes the tough news!
For an average guy with low levels of skills and an indifferent level of knowledge of the language, there is immense competition.
The whole of the world has become aware of all the career benefits and financial perks in Japan, so there is tremendous competition for jobs in Japan. There is a steep surge in the applications for study and working visa for Japan.
The Japanese authorities, as well as Japanese companies, are becoming stricter and stricter in filtering the candidates and the bar is being raised ever so higher for qualification criteria.
After seeing the beauty and sophistication of Japan over YouTube etc, so many people now wish to go to Japan, thinking that finding a job in Japan is a piece of cake and then settling forever in Japan afterward. In doing so, they forget about the qualifications and efforts required for this to happen. Most people think that the process of getting a visa can be outsourced. These people eventually get very little or no success.
The first barrier is the cluttering of applications and difficulty for the candidate to get a job due to time. Your Resume or CV should stand in terms of presentation of the qualities you possess.

Secondly, there is tougher competition as people from neighboring countries are also getting attracted towards Japan for example candidates from China, Korea or even European countries they started getting attracted towards Japan.
Lately, many foreigners can be seen roaming everywhere in big cities of Japan. Needless to say that they have to have some kind of Job for the visa and hence there is an increase in competition for getting a good job in Japan. That’s why I have many a times emphasized the importance of learning the Japanese language, having an upper hand, and sustaining yourself in the ever-rising competition to find jobs in Japan.
