How I got a Job in Japan as a Web Developer with no experience.

A little background story in how I got my first job in Japan as a web developer.
At the time, I had never heard of AWS, and didn't even know the basics of programming related to web.

+1 subscriber, man. I'm from Brazil too, glad to see a brother working as a developer in Japan!

[CharlyAlemania]

I'm argentinian and work as a web dev in Germany. I'd love to spend at least one year working as a dev in Japan 😊 so I just started learning Japanese. Hopefully I'll make it ;) good video, obrigado

[lucasduarte]

I liked so much your channel! I’m Brazilian developer, and I used your content for practice the english listening 😊

[devippo]

Awesome Ravi! You are the man!
I like the honest way of explaining your story.
(The Java part made me laugh)

Thanks for the video! I'm currently studying Computer Science in college and am studying Japanese on the side. Glad to see there will be opportunities for me to get a job and move to Japan after I graduate!

Thanks so much for this, although my journey in getting work after graduating language school will be hard, this encouraged me after being discouraged with people telling me its almost impossible for an IT degree holder without experience to find work in Japan.

(Will be graduating college this summer, going to language school by January)

Is there's a website where I can apply for a web developer job in Japan even just for junior level?

[joshjakkrit]

Would you mind sharing how did you search for a job? It would be very helpful. Thank you.

Any idea how common is FAANG style/Leetcode style interview in Japan?

[AmodeusR]

Que coincidência, um brasileiro e que trabalha no Japão! Também sou um dev e estudo japonês, apesar de não ter necessariamente o objetivo de trabalhar no japão como dev, não faria mal kkk juntar o útil ao agradável :P

[silvrsurfer]

I need you to go more in depth with this topic. Were you already fluent in Japanese before getting this job? How/why did they hire you, if you had no qualifications.. we e you already livijg in japan / what eas your visa situation like or did they hire you from Brazil to move here. Thanks for your input :)

[rockinriobrazil]

Very nice video man. Short and concise. Very good.
I'm also brazilian and I have some questions: Did you live in Japan before get this job? Did you apply for the job, living in Brazil? Where can we find those companies? Did you already know Japanese language before you were hired? Can you do more videos about your experience working in tech in Japan?

Sucesso e abraços.

I have about 10 years of experience with Section 508, doing HTML, CSS, some Java and PDFs. Is Japan doing accessibility work for the blind now?

[friedazebalili]

Wow I love this video very helpful information. Can I ask how do you find this companies? I have Student Visa Studying Japanese for 2 years and this really got me so interested. I do have background in Website development but i don't know how to find job here in Japan. Really appriciate if you can help me

[ethanvirtudazo]

Thanks for the video!
Can you make a video on the application process and how your educational background (was it from Brazil?) influenced the process and if you have any tips for soon-to-be graduate in Japan (I’m an international student here.)

[Yoorana]

I was wondering how you relocated there and if you are now a Japanese citizen there?
Or are you currently on a work visa?
