Looking for a job in Japan (7) What you need to know before you start working.

I have to say that finding a job in Japan requires both strength and luck. Although major enterprises are actively recruiting foreign talents, only a few enterprises can reach 20% of the annual recruitment plan. Coupled with the two-way matching selection in all aspects, it is not easy to finally get a satisfactory candidate. Everyone has the feeling that a big stone has finally landed. However, while celebrating, don't forget that there are several things that need to be clarified.

After giving the notice of default qualification, the enterprise will expect to receive the promise of accepting the job on the same day or within one week. If you don't want to accept it anyway because you are dissatisfied or have a better choice, you must resign as soon as possible. Although the law stipulates that it is ok to dismiss two weeks before joining the company, this kind of behavior that causes serious consequences to the enterprise is very unreasonable, and the sooner the better. From the etiquette point of view, it is suggested to cancel the default contact by phone rather than email, so that you can express your apology more sincerely and respond to the other party's attitude in time. When asked about the reasons for resigning, we should avoid belittling the other company and choose reasons that both sides can understand, such as being more interested in other fields and having another job that can give full play to our strengths. At the same time, remember to express deep regret that you have to quit this default.

Every year from June 5438- 10, the company will call the newcomers who will join the company next spring to attend the default ceremony, introduce them to the relevant information about preparing to start their work, and invite the employees of relevant departments to hold a celebration banquet together. People who join the company in autumn basically enter the enterprise before breaking the contract. Although the personnel department usually sends an email to inform the relevant information in advance, the time is late and the content is limited. I've been in this situation myself. Due to the incomplete information, it has caused a lot of inconvenience, so it is recommended to take the initiative to consult yourself before joining the job. The information that needs to be mastered in the internal formula mainly includes these:

Nowadays, there are fewer and fewer enterprises with apartments, but there are still many enterprises that provide low-cost accommodation for single young people, some are collective renting houses, some are dormitories, and sometimes even dormitories provide breakfast and dinner. For those who choose to rent their own houses, most enterprises have corresponding housing subsidies. When moving, they will also reimburse the expenses of the moving company, and the transportation expenses to and from work will also be reimbursed. If you can determine the place of work, you might as well consider how to solve the accommodation problem as soon as possible. In the season before entering the job in spring, the rental agency will be extremely hot.

Some enterprises will arrange new people to participate in toeic collectively on the default day, so don't be too relaxed! Nowadays, enterprises often set the goal of reaching the standard percentage of employees' English level. If you can get more than 800 points properly, it will prove that the first threshold for the future development of the workplace has been cleared!

College students are often our best friends in life. In Japan, there are similar friends who are employed at the same time. The default formula is the time when we first met. In the future, these people will participate in new training, overseas study and new assessment. Even if you are assigned to different departments, there will be many opportunities to get along. In the typical Japanese workplace, the same period is a rare and completely equal relationship, and the initial state of work is also the most similar. They have the same language and can understand each other, so the same period has become the most cherished interpersonal relationship for Japanese people after work. Judging from the default formula, cherish and enjoy the friendship of the same period.

There will always be a banquet at the end of the default formula, which will be the first occasion for face-to-face communication with future colleagues. Don't patronize the excitement of just joining the job, ask your predecessor what challenges he will encounter in the new environment and understand the current work content and methods. It is likely that the original interviewer will also attend, which is a good opportunity to thank Bole. But there's no need to be too nervous. You should enjoy the celebration of this party.

After getting the diploma, you should contact the personnel department of the enterprise as soon as possible, ask for relevant materials and update your visa stay qualification. I have a friend who didn't get the right to work because he was updated too late after joining the company, so he couldn't count as a job a few days ago. It usually takes at least two to three weeks to get to the corresponding immigration office in the residential area.

International students have joined the national health insurance. After work, you will generally join the company's health insurance, similar to universal health insurance. They can wait until they join the company and then do the corresponding treatment without other formalities. If you have a family, you may wish to consult whether it is necessary to add the family to the insurance of the enterprise. As for taxation, enterprises will issue tax bills and specific instructions by the end of the year.

Everything is ready, please look forward to the day when you officially become a social person. The long road ahead is full of challenges and difficulties. Don't forget the ambition written in ES at the beginning, and don't forget to buy a grateful gift for your parents when you get your first month's salary according to Japanese custom.
