Hey! Avoid putting a bunt of useless information is the worst part of build a good CV. I review my resume and I did that leaner with success! lol I got some tips on your video. Helps me a lot. I'll apply that in mt resume ASAP. Do you available to review it? I still on the process of Japanese company but unfortunately the other one I was rejected! =/ Thanks for your content!
hey man, great video as always! i had a question, it's said that you need japanese skills to compensate for your lack of technical skills and vice versa. what do you think someone who plans to work in japan should keep as their main focus (i'm a sophomore btw)? initially i'd been very serious about brushing up my japanese and letting my dev skills remain average, but i realized that wouldn't land me a job that pays above the median so now i'm going all in with the technical side of things, and only doing as much japanese as i have time for. what would you say?
Focus on your dev skills and getting an internship or more than one before graduating. Learn basic Japanese. When you move to Japan you can learn Japanese easily.
Hello! Do I have to send my CV directly to the company or do I have to go through a recruiting agent? What is the best solution, please?. what is the salary of frontend developer and backend developer, please? is there a site to contact Japanese startup, please? Thank you for your time and response :)
You can do either and actually you should do both. Contact a lot of recruiters but also apply directly to specific companies you are interested in because recruiters won't cover all companies. Backend developers are in demand and generally make more than front end developers. Salaries vary, check out a website called "opensalary" For startups look up at "justa" or "wantedly"
What about writing a resume in Japanese (not English)? Unlike foreign companies, the template is more or less expected to be in a standard format for Japanese companies?
Yes. I hate it. The focus of this channel is international companies or companies that don't expect much japanese skill if at all. Because those on average will be a much better experience than working for a Japanese company.
Hi, Mustafa! Thanks for the content. I've been looking for Flutter jobs in Japan, and most of the opportunities are for Senior developers. What you have to say about Flutter community and demand growth in Japan? Do i probably searched something wrong? Thank you!
Flutter is currently not popular here and Japan is always behind the curve in tech stacks. If its popular elsewhere give it a year or two for Japan to catchup.
Hey don't worry. You can afford fruits just fine with a Developer salary. The range is huge. From 4mil to 20mil yen. It's all about your skill, which company and how you market yourself.
Hey! I am an electronics communication engineering 1st year student, could you please tell me which domain I should focus to get a job in Japan, by the way I love your videos, ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You could get a job here in that field in companies like Sony. But it's more narrow and less positions than developer job and also you would need to become fairly fluent in Japanese to work in a Japanese company. AFAIK most English tech startups don't deal with hardware here. As you are a first year you probably are only doing general courses like physics and math and it might not be too late to pivot to computer science or computer engineering.
Hello! I am a react frontend dev junior, I have never worked as a developer. but I have a portfolio. do i have a chance to find a job in japan? thanks!
Of course. React is very much in demand. It's best you try to get an internship first at a good company in your country or even in Japan. New grad salary isn't very high in Japan but if you come after getting some experience you can get a much better starting salary. I recommend applying to FAANG companies of course but also in Japan some big tech companies usually hire interns like Indeed, Mercari, Sony, Rakuten e.t.c
A few Questions for you: 1) If I have 1-2 iOS apps in the App Store, will that increase my chances of getting a job in Japan? 2) I’ve been thinking a lot about switching from learning from Swift to Kotlin, since you mentioned that Android devs are more in demand, but the only reason I’m hesitating is because I kind of want to master swift. So do you think I should make the switch to Kotlin or keep mastering Swift and apply for jobs without any Java related projects?
1) Yes. Please do that if you have the time. It helps because it shows your interest in the field. Also make sure you have your source code available for them when they ask. Maybe link to it if it's in a public repo or offer to provider access. It's a very good discussion area during interviews. 2) If you are already good at Swift it's better to focus on that and improve your skill in it. There are many positions for Swift devs as well.
Dev in Japan You’re the best!!!!!!!!! As always your replies have been super motivating, this one especially has made me so happy since I love Swift 😁 Thank you!
I am a fresh IT graduate and wanted to come to japan what i have to do.. I am currently doing full stack development in javascript and have made 3 projects for some clients.. What should i do in order to get a job in japan.. I also have made one project in react.js
Have a great resume. Apply to good companies. Same as with any country. If you need specific interviewing tips I'll try to make more videos on that. Just let me know. I can't do 1-on-1 for everyone but I try.
Hi! I've visited Japan for 2 weeks on March of this year and now I wanna go back to work and live. I'm a developer with 5 years of experience focused on web backend with experience mostly on PHP but now I'm doing small projects with NodeJS, Ruby and doing DevOps and SRE courses. With the pandemic right now I'm waiting for the countries to open the frontier to start applying and move as soon as possible. Right now I'm unemployed, there are chances for a guy like me to get a work in Japan?
Yea they are opening borders soon for residents. It's a slow process. Some companies support you working remotely until then if they hire you so go ahead and apply. Though I recommend you work im your country for a while and build some skills in something other than PHP first.
@@DevinJapan Yes, I could apply right now to a company but I don't feel so confident to do so, by now I'm doing small projects to fill my portfolio and seeking for a job in my country, the problem is than in Chile (country where I'm from and currently living) is more difficult to find a job in IT because there are a rise in the unemployment (by the pandemic and the protests)
Hi , i have 5+ years doing full stack development. I am working remotely most of my career. Im using laravel, jquery, Angularjs, Vuejs, React native plus i have team lead experience. How much salary can i expect with 5 plus years experience?
@@DevinJapan thank you bro, i am a backend guy i was thinking if i say those tech on interview i will weight more than other candidates. If ever i would bring my wife with me , will that be possible? i will have to search for cost of living

@@DevinJapan I think “opensalary” is just for software engineers, do you know any site for front end web developers? Thanks in advance!

hi! how much do you need to earn to live well in japan?
I saw the price of fruit and vegetables, it's scary
Hey don't worry. You can afford fruits just fine with a Developer salary.
The range is huge. From 4mil to 20mil yen. It's all about your skill, which company and how you market yourself.
@@DevinJapan thanks a lot!!
@@DevinJapan 4 mill being the lowest?

@@PPablinho Best of luck my friend
Hi , i have 5+ years doing full stack development. I am working remotely most of my career. Im using laravel, jquery, Angularjs, Vuejs, React native plus i have team lead experience. How much salary can i expect with 5 plus years experience?
In good companies 8mil yen~14mil yen. You can check out website called OpenSalary
Although most good companies look for specialists. Pick backend dev and you can probably get more than frontend dev.
@@DevinJapan thank you bro, i am a backend guy i was thinking if i say those tech on interview i will weight more than other candidates. If ever i would bring my wife with me , will that be possible? i will have to search for cost of living
If you have a Visa you can sponsor your spouse to live with you. On a developer salary should be easy life here.
I have another video on cost of living so check that out.
