Guide to the Center

Our center was first established in Osaka on November 4, 1997, with the aim of offering employment counseling and placement service to foreign students and specialists in various fields.
But coping with the changing situations, we later started offering the same service also to foreigners without professional skills as well as to Nikkeis (foreign residents of Japanese descent). Today we also offer daily interpretation service in foreign languages, namely, English, Chinese, Spanish and Portuguese.

Our current service:
To foreign students including pre-college students
Job counseling and placement service. Language assistance available in English, Chinese, Spanish and Portuguese

To Nikkeis
Job counseling and life guidance to Nikkeis. Language assistance available in Spanish and Portuguese

To employers and companies
Advice on employment of foreign workers and to receive job offers

On top of the above, we also offer
Consultation service on visa and the immigration laws
Consultation service to employers about management of Nikkei workers

We welcome you to the center. (Free of charge)
