Will it be easy for me to work in Japan?
In the most cases, Japanese companies request both a certain English and Japanese language level for recruitment. If you wish to work in Japan, you may often need to learn Japanese to a certain extent. In addition, the job market in Japan is sometimes related to age. Career changes can generally occur up until 35-40 years old. There is a job market for those over the age of 40, but it is considered very small. These are some distinguishing characteristics that you should know when searching for a job in Japan.
How will GLOBIS help me find the right job?
In order to find the right job, it is essential that you discover and clarify your personal mission. We link our career services with MBA courses and extra-curricular activities in order to help you to achieve your personal mission through your new job. Please see the details on the career services page.
How will GLOBIS introduce me to companies and recruiters?
We have several approaches to companies. Through internships and our MBA courses such as the research project, companies can come to know students before the formal recruitment procedure starts. We recommend that you participate in the various job fairs held in Tokyo, which include with numerous Japanese and overseas companies. Students will be able to tap into the job opening list offered by GLOBIS. You may also utilize career seminars and top or professional seminars to reach your targeted companies.
What kind of companies can I join after earning my MBA?
We recommend that you target companies which appreciate not only your skills as a MBA degree holder, but your characters and personal mission as well. Your career is all up to you. Take the initiative in finding your ideal job.
What kind of companies recruit at GLOBIS?
As GLOBIS is expanding the program from part-time to full-time, we are broadening our services for recruitment. (See examples of our invested companies and training clients on the GLOBIS Capital Partners page and corporate training page). We currently collaborate with those who already know about GLOBIS’ quality, such as companies in which our group company (GCP) invests and corporate training clients and companies that send their employees to GLOBIS as corporate sponsorships.
What is the average salary for GLOBIS graduates?
Our graduates have encountered various career-changing periods during enrollment as well as a couple of years after graduation. Although we have yet to gather statistics regarding the career information of our graduates since we currently only offer part-time programs, many of our graduates have experienced a raise and/or transfer in position with higher salaries.
Can you introduce me to companies located outside of Japan?
As GLOBIS is broadening its services for recruitment, we have yet to introduce students to companies located outside of Japan, but we are in discussions with companies who may place GLOBIS graduates in overseas subsidiaries.
In which kind of career events or workshops can I participate?
We will start with a Career Orientation for students interested in participating in career services. We will hold events and step-by-step workshops such as a “Job Search in Japan” session, Company Information sessions and recruitment events. You may also take counseling sessions, resume brush-up sessions and mock interviews. Please see the overall schedule in the career top page.
