Japan, with its superior climate and beautiful scenery, is a place that students all over the world yearn for. So where can I choose to work when studying in Japan? The following is an inventory of common ways to study in Japan. Welcome to reading.

First of all, convenience stores

There are many kinds of 24-hour convenience stores in Japan, such as Seven-eleven, Lawson, Familymart, Circle-k, Sunkus and Ministop. And convenience stores in Phuket, Japan are scary. Strictly speaking, as long as you can see a place with residents or a certain number of people, there will definitely be settings around it; Its work mainly focuses on cashier and sorting goods.

For international students, because classes will be held within a week, the working hours of convenience stores are mainly divided into weekends and early hours (of course, the university courses in Japan are not as tense as those in China, and you can work during other breaks in a week).

The working hours in the early morning are from 10 to around 8: 00 the next morning. Working in this period has many advantages, such as long working hours and high salary. Working only three days a week can fully meet the living expenses and most of the tuition fees in Japan for one year, and working at night is relatively easy. If students have to work early in the morning, they need to adjust the schedule of the next day to prevent it from affecting their daily study.

According to different regions, the hourly wage of convenience stores, taking Tokyo as an example, is generally 900~ 1 100 yen/hour, and the hourly wage is relatively high in the early morning.

Second, the restaurant.

Japanese restaurants have different specifications, such as cake shops, Lamian Noodles shops, fast food restaurants, self-service shops, restaurants in izakaya and other countries. The types of work in restaurants are mainly divided into lobby work and kitchen work. The requirements for Japanese in kitchen work are relatively low. Japan's diet is dominated by fast food, and the requirements are simple. Students who can't cook can go to work.

The work of the lobby is mainly ordering food and cashier, which is not much different from convenience stores. However, the working hours in restaurants are relatively few. Generally, international students need to work more than two jobs a week to maintain their living expenses.

The hourly wage in restaurants is generally 800~ 1000 yen. If you work in the early hours of the morning, your hourly wage will increase by 25%.

Third, the factory

Another major money-making job for international students. Japanese is hardly used at work, so quite a few students who just went to Japan can find jobs. The main types of work in the factory are: assembly line for lunch, bread making, distribution and tally by logistics companies; The working hours in the factory are stable and good, and a job can basically support itself.

Assembly line for lunch. There are many such factories in Japan, and jobs are relatively easy to find. Because it is delivered on the same day, working hours are generally concentrated in the early hours of the morning; The working hours of other factories are divided into morning shift, afternoon shift and night shift, and a few also have morning shift. Students can find jobs that suit them according to their schedules.

The hourly wage is 900~ 1000 yen.

There are many kinds of jobs in Japan, and there are also special weekly recruitment magazines such as domo and townwork, which publish a large amount of job information once a week. Public facilities such as stations, subways and 24-hour convenience stores are free to enter anytime and anywhere.
