Japanese Recruiting Licence

[Milledge]

Hi everyone, I've been lurking for about 3 months now and have decided to post-It's a pleasure to become part of your forum.

I am looking for any information regarding acquiring a Japanese Recruiting Licence.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi and welcome.

Are you talking about being a head-hunter in Japan? I didn't think there was any licence required to enter this field.

But perhaps some other members have more information.

GomiGirl, Thank you for the welcome, my apologies for the delayed reply. Yes, I mean head-hunting.

I am not sure about the legality of having a recruiting licence or not. As I understand the applicant has to sit through "attend" a day-long seminar in Japanese (whether you speak Japanese or not it doesn't matter-only that you attend).

I have found this site http://www.minshokyo.or.jp/ but can't confirm what else is needed other than paying for and going to the seminar.

Supposedly this organization is staffed by former Ministry of Labor retirees who suppliment their pensions by giving the seminars.

If anyone has deeper information, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
