Oh, i forgot to tell you the result of the pilot test!!
パイロットの試験の結果報告するの忘れてた！！
i failed :o( but i'm glad that i failed :o) 落ちた！！けど落ちてよかった～
cause i'm scared of hights and don't wannna be a pilot! 高所恐怖症だしパイロットにはなりなくないよ。。 まぁいい経験でした☆ well, it was a good experience though.
By the way, will someone from other countries tell me how students get a job in your country? i know you need to have skills and experience to get a job but then how do students that have no experience get a job?? What is the jobhunting system in your country?
i'm just writing this for my self satisfaction so i haven't told my friends that i'm writing a blog but hope someone will read this and reply to me.

Are you interested in how students get a part time job, or how they find full time jobs after they graduate?
Well, i am very curious how students find their full time job after they graduate. Don't companies look for experienced skills? Please tell me!!
Yes, this is a challenge for graduating students in America. Some companies do hire graduates for "entry level" jobs, but this is not as common as I think it is in Japan. Entry level jobs are jobs that don't require many experiences, but instead are ones where the company will train the person to do the job and then grow in the company.
Most colleges and universities also have career counseling offices, where students can get information on the process (such as how to write a resume, find job openings, intervieiwing, etc.) and do research on companies.
Getting some experience before and during college is also very useful. The best way to do this is to use the summer break to get an internship (not sure if you do this in Japan). Or get a part time job that somehow is related to what you want to do after you graduate.
頑張って！
Wow, sounds like very tough way. It is said that it's very hard to get a job in Japan but that seems to be same everywhere.
Then if the students didn't prepare anything or do some work before graduating, what are they gonna do? work as a part time job? I'm sure there's many of them. Maybe getting a full time job in the U.S. is more difficult. Here in Japan, companies look at the "person" not skills (for new graduates). I don't know if this is good or bad but that means if you have an ambition or a passion for the job, you might be able to get the job.
Of course, how hard it is to find a job varies based on the field you studied and what the job opportunities are for that field. There are not enough engineers and people to write software in America, so students of these fields generally do not have trouble finding a job.
But a person who studies English literature or other field which doesn't necessarily train them for a specific job would likely have a very hard time finding a job.
My understanding is that America is much more short term focused, so the look more at what a potential employee can do for them in the next few years. Japan I thinks till has the thought about lifetime employment, so they look more at the general attributes of the person.
Thanks so much for your comment again! I'm doing a research to write about "the difference between Japanese and American business" focusing on management and people's mind. So your comment helped me a lot! I would like to ask you questions again if that's ok with you.
Sure. It may be best to do this by email. My address is
