Japanese Cover Letter

 

A Japanese cover letter is an integral part of your job applications process. It should refer to your present and future plans, showing your prospective employers what you want to do now and what you will do for them in the future.

Often the Japanese cover letter is more important or convincing to employers then the accompanying resume because they refer mainly to the past time with exception of your present job.

Recruiters and employers are interested mostly in the future of companies and organizations they represent.

When applying for a position in Japan, you may submit a ‘rirekisho’ in Japanese with no cover letter, or a two-page American style resume with job cover letter in English.

A typewritten job cover letter always accompanies the Japanese resume. Usually it contains 3 or 4 paragraphs and never is longer than one page.

Always address your job cover letter to an individual. Take the time to research every employer's organization and personalize each cover letter with a real person’s name.

Explain how your background, education and skills relate to the position offered.
