Fox,

FYI, JET isn't exclusively English teaching positions. I have a friend who is a graphic designer and JET placed him in a job in his field. Opportunities like this are open to people who already have some command of the language. Anyway, best of luck to you!

Not sure what kind of 職歴 you have, but you may want to try the bilingual headhunters in Tokyo. A friend of mine runs NinePoint - you might want to try him. I know you probably don't want to do the 英会話先生 thing, but it could be a foot in the door for you to get over there.

Fox,

JET seems to be a good foot in the door option for a lot of people. If you haven't already, you should give them a look:

Good luck -- hope things work out for you.

Good luck, Fox! Maybe you should mention what kind of work you're looking for and a link to your resume?

僕はアメリカ人なのですが、目標は日本で働く事です。去年の四月に日本に引っ越そうとしたのですが、その時期に日本の経済は凄く不景気で、就職活動するのはやはり無理でしたね。残念ですけど。。。今からまた、日本の会社に申し込みを始めようと思っています。日本に渡航する時、たくさんのリクルートの会社に履歴書を提出しましたがあんまり手伝ってくれなかった。どなたか、経済力のある、また、ワーキングビザの援助が可能な会社をご存知の方がいらっしゃいましたら、是非教えて頂けないでしょうか？

Here's an interesting web site with night views of all areas of Japan:
