就職活動を始めた時期、どのように活動したかを教えてもらえますか?
A.専門学校3年次から就職活動を始めました。
校内での合同企業説明会に参加したり、沢山来る求人から自分の行きたいと思う会社を探しました。大体説明会に10社ほど参加して、実際に5社の試験を受けました。
When you starts job-seeking? And what did you do for job-seeking?
A. I starts job-seeking activities when I am a year-3-student (final-year). For my school, we have regular job-seminar from different companies every month. Besides that, there are two big job-seeking events every year, and school will invite lots of companies to have seminar or booths. Then most of final-year students will prepare their portfolio and resume for interviews. Actually. There are lots of these kinds of job-seeking events outside school, and is for everyone to join. Also, some companies do recruiting through their website, and if people are interested, they can just apply for it directly. Finally, I applied for around 10 different companies, and 5 I get the interview chance. In addition to that, my school organize year-exhibition for students to display their artwork, and invite companies to join the event. Some students get their internship chance there.
請問你甚麼開始有關的就職活動﹖而你參與過哪一些的就職活動呢﹖
當我成為3年生 (最後一年) 時就開始就職活動。我們的學校每個月都有不同企業來舉辦公司簡介會或招聘活動;另外,每年也有兩次大型的聯合招聘活動,學校會邀請很多大大小小的企業來學校直接與學生們
面試,以及查看學生的作品集,學生們參加這些活動時,第一,了解到某些企業的資訊和風格,第二,對於三年生來說,透過提出履歷表和作品集,有機會得到實習的機會,或甚至得到該公司垂青直接受到聘用。除此之
外,我的學校每一年都會為學生舉辦一年一度的展覽會,讓學生們有機會向外界展示自己的作品,這也是一個得到企業垂青的好機會。

試験はどんな内容ですか?
デザイン系の会社は面接+ポートフォリオです。ポートフォリオを見れば大体わかるそうです。
What kinds of test you have for the job-interview?
For design-related job interviews, the most important is portfolio. A good portfolio is the key to show your ability and talent to the companies.
請問面試時的情況是怎樣的﹖
對於設計行業的面試,最重要還是作品審核,所以一本好的作品集就是向該公司展示自己的實力和天份的最大資產。

大変だったことは何ですか?
履歴書は手書きなので、日本語を綺麗に書くことや自己PR、志望理由など日本独特の書類を作るのが大変でした。
また、年齢でダメな会社もあったので、そこは厳しいと思いました。
面接で1番大変だったのは敬語で話す事です。慣れていないと、なかなかでてきません。
What kinds of difficulties you have during the job-hunting?
For Japanese culture, candidates are expected to prepare their resume by hand-writing. So, a beautiful hand-writing do show a good image to the company first. Then, the content of the resume is not easy to write for foreigners like me. However, for me, one of the difficulties that I have is age problem and this is really can’t help. It is because I am not as young as those 20-genertation already, and some companies do prefer youngsters. Moreover, I am not good at those Honorific (keigo) Japanese terms, but it is better to use it during the interviews.
找工作的過程中最令你覺得困難的地方是甚麼﹖
日本的履歷書是必需要用手寫的,而我其實這方面没甚麼信心的,不過當然也盡能力寫好一點。畢竟單看履歷書就已經是該工司對你的第一個印象了。另外,對於寫日本履歷書裡的內容,作為外國人還是有一點點難度的,這方面學校的老師幫助不少。至於面試方面,最困難莫過於要使用那些很長的日本敬語了,我這方面是最弱的,不常用之餘,又一直記不下來,但又是最重要的,所以大家在這方面一定要下點苦功了。最後,就個人而言,因為我的年齡有點大,所以有一些公司確實不接受我的工作申請,這個問題是没法解決的啦,唯有放棄那些公司吧。

今の会社はどうやって決まりましたか?
去年の夏にアルバイトを始めて、11月頃社長から「卒業後はうちで働かないか。」と誘って頂きました。
When you get the job successfully?
I started to work as part-time since summer last year. Then, the company president knew I am going to graduate in 2017, and were searching for jobs around November last year. So, we started to talk about to work as full-time after my graduation. Finally, everything seems happened to be by chance, and now I will be working as full-time staff from April 2017.
請問你現在工作的公司是甚麼時候找到的呢﹖
我去年夏天開始在這家公司做兼職,當時並没有想過入這家公司的。然後大約在去年11月中時,老闆知道我是今年的畢業生而又在找工作,在老闆的邀請下,一切都發生很自然地,就加入了這家公司了。

日本で就職を考えている人に一言お願いします。
私は最初、自分でドラマを見ながら日本語を勉強をしたのですが、ため口で話すことに慣れてしまったので、その後直すのがとても大変です。
正しい日本語を日本語学校でしっかり勉強した方が就職の為にも早いと思います。
What do you want say to foreigners who are planning to work in Japan?
Please study the good and right Japanese in Japanese school, but not by yourself if you are really planning to work in Japan. At the first beginning, I learned Japanese by watching TV dramas or movies, and my speaking and listening ability is really good enough for daily lives. However, finally I realized that the Japanese for work or using in company is another issue. So, I started to learn ‘beautiful’ Japanese when I entered Kudan, but it was already too late, and difficult to change most of those slangs or accent that I learned by myself.
對於正在考慮到日本工作的朋友們,你有甚麼建議嗎﹖
請不要自學日文,一定要入日本語學校學好正式和正確的日文,雖然有點辛苦,但對於將來進入日本公司絕對有利而無一害。我開頭時是一邊看電視劇或電影,一邊自學日文的,而確實我的聽力和說話能力有大大的改進,對於日常生活是完全應付有餘。但是,當我打算將來留日發展時,我才意識到,工作上用的日文和日常用的日文完全兩回事。當我入九段開始去學習一些正規的日文時已經太遲了,因為很多日常用的俗語或口音已經深深插入腦裡,一時三刻很難改掉。即時到現在,我的日文仍然被老師或同學們取笑不夠正統。

九段のおすすめポイントは何ですか?
どこの学校よりもイベントが多いです。日本語の勉強をしながら日本の文化を学んだり日本人と友達になれるようなイベントもたくさんしてもらえたのが本当に良かったですし、友達も沢山できましたし、日本語の勉強にもなりました。友達にも1番いいよと勧めていて、今九段で勉強している友達もいますし、来年もまた来ると思います。
とにかく、友達に勧められる学校です。
What is the reason for recommending Kudan?
I have many friends study in different language schools, and within that, no schools provide such great amount of activities for students like Kudan. By joining these activities, students can learn Japanese and at the same time know more about Japanese cultures. Also, students are able to know some Japanese friends through these activities, and this is also kinds of culture exchange. Whenever my friends ask me about Japanese language school, I always recommend Kudan. The teachers and staff are every nice here and they really try to help students whatever we ask for support. I have a friend is studying now, and probably one of another friend will come next year.
請問你推薦九段的原因是甚麼﹖
我認識很多朋友在不同的日本語學校修讀日文,從來没有一間學校像九段那樣舉辦如此多的活動。學生透過參與這些活動,一方面輕鬆地學日文,一方面可以學習到不同的日本文化。另外,更可認識到一些日本朋友,互相有一些文化交流,使到學日文的過程也特別開心。今年我有一個朋友在就讀,明年可能又有另一個朋友來九段。總之無論朋友們問及有關東京的日本語學校,我一定首推九段﹗
