This article has been edited to make some grammatical corrections and to add helpful websites.

Justa.io has also been removed as the website does not exist anymore.

If you’re unfamiliar with Japanese yet, it’s easier to filter through job offers using English-friendly websites. Here’s a list of sites that offer English support and are easier to use for foreigners when looking for jobs in Japan.

  1. Tokyo Devhttp://tokyodev.com
    This is both a job site and a tech blog for Software Engineers working in Japan with listings of foreign-friendly companies. They also have a discord channel for International Software Engineers in Japan, which I myself am already a part of.
  2. LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/
    Arguably the most popular site at the moment for professionals to connect and look for jobs. This is not only limited to the IT field as well either. Usually, a lot of recruiters are on LinkedIn as well so there are lots of opportunities to look through job openings here.
  3. Japan Dev http://japandev.com
    A popular job site and tech blog for Software Engineers working in Japan, this has listings of foreign-friendly (in this context, non-Japanese people) companies
  4. Creative Tokyohttps://creativetokyo.com/jobs
    Creative Tokyo is a community for Creatives in Japan. It has a job board for creative and non-creative job openings in tech.
