Searching for employment in Japan can be challenging and seem complicated. Utilizing online searches and job listing websites is a quick and straightforward first step towards your career, though.
As still continue the global COVID-19 pandemic, the world has done its best to adjust to a new standard of normality. Many jobs have begun having their workers work remotely, and those industries that can’t have had to take strict precautions to avoid infections.
It’s not an easy time to look for a new position. Whether you were in the middle of a career change before COVID-19 hit or are looking for new positions now, the recruitment process has changed dramatically.
But HR and recruiting are always evolving to keep up with the latest market trends, so not every shift has to do with the pandemic. If you’re currently in the market for a new position or expect to be soon, here are some of the most recent recruitment process changes changes in the recruitment process and how you can adapt to new challenges.
How to write a CV that will guarantee the right first impression
In Japan the job culture as well as the interview process is also different.
Now, in many cases, applicants are faced with the added difficulty of getting their CV past artificial intelligence (AI) technology. These AI algorithms scan for specific data and determine which candidates recruiters should contact first. It’s never been more criticalimportant to ensure you have an up-to-date, powerful CV. Here are our tips for how to write a resume that will ensure your relevance in today’s competitive job market.
Remove Positions That Are No Longer Relevant
your CV may look sparse without any listed work before then. In that scenario, summarize the previous roles by stating only the job title, employer, and time you worked there. Feel free to remove roles that say nothing about the kind of professional you are today.
Showcase Your Skills and Achievements
Don’t be afraid to highlight the skills that will impress an employer or recruiter in your industry. Have you recently taken a class or started using a new management style with your employees? Your CV should reflect your soft skills—those that help you fit in a workplace—and technical skills required for the job itself.
Focus on a few criticalkey skills and mention them repeatedly across several roles. From this, AI should be able to work out roughly how long you’ve demonstrated that skill.
Now that many employers have adopted remote working practices, it’s worth mentioning any collaboration tools you’re adept in, such as Asana or Google Docs. On the other hand, basic skills like Microsoft Office are assumed for most office roles and can be taken off your CV for good.
Update Your CV’s Design
The design, formatting, and readability of your CV are vital. Here are a few pointers:
- Your CV must cover only a page or two at most.
- Unusual fonts can confuse AI technology. Use a standard font like Calibri, Arial, or Georgia, with between 10- and 12-point type.
- Ensure there’s plenty of white space. If words are crammed in, the person recruiting will lose interest fast.
- Make sure formatting is consistent throughout—that includes spacing, headers, and font type and size.
- Replace long paragraphs with bullet points—no longer than three lines each.
- Change all written numbers to numerals, and all measurement words (like “percent”) into symbols (%). You’ll save space and improve readability.
- Don’t waste valuable CV real estate by stating that “References are available upon request.” If your future employer wants references, they’ll ask for them in a later conversation.
- Rename your CV file to “First name_Surname_CV” so it will easily be found by an employer sifting through many documents on their PC.

There’s some interesting information to be gleaned here, especially because someone at the organization responded, encouraging the dissatisfied employee to connect with someone on the human resources team to discuss ways of enhancing the culture. That said, there’s still a ton that a candidate can’t learn from these paragraphs.

It’s tempting to jump on the first job offer you get, but the last thing you want to do is find yourself finding a company that doesn’t align with your goals or values. But it’s difficult to get a full picture of a company’s culture and working environment in a few short interviews and one tour of the office visit. I wish Amico Job Board will change this culture.

“Interviewing is a two-way street, and research is beneficial to the interviewer in two ways. Not only does this help the candidate impress the company with their knowledge, but also for the candidate to determine if the company is a good match for their career goals, I personally believe Amico can helf for that.
