For international students who are studying abroad, career fairs held in and out of Japan tend to be the major source of job hunting opportunities.
In fact, quite a few number of international students attend those career fairs every year.
The good thing about career fairs is that students can visit a number of companies all at once, and thus it is efficient in a sense.
However, there are many students who are too busy during academic semesters to attend those seminars and have to miss the opportunities.
Even if they could attend somehow, they have only limited amount of time as well as limited choices of the companies they can proceed with. Such reality often leads to the students' dissatisfaction in their job hunt, which eventually leads to the mismatch between the students and the companies. In fact, we see this happening more frequently these days.
We escort companies' representatives (usually from HR) to overseas campuses and hold on-campus company information sessions.
Interviews can be held at these occasions as well if needed.
We will instruct the candidates the basic job hunting techniques including how to write resumes, how to self-PR, etc. to help the candidates especially if they have never experienced "Japanese" job hunting before.
