Seminars and Workshops
The Career Development Office holds many useful seminars and workshops that equip students with the skills necessary for the unique Japanese system of "shukatsu (job-hunting)".
Individual Career Counseling
One-on-one career counseling gives students the personalized advice and support they need to successfully achieve their career goals.
Company Information Session
Companies are invited to TUJ throughout the year to hold information sessions about their company and the industry they operate in.
On-Campus Career Fairs
Each year, TUJ invites representatives from 15 to 20 Japanese and foreign companies to meet with current students and alumni to discuss career opportunities. Attending companies are eager to meet promising students who can add to the strength of their organizations. The career fair also gives students and alumni the opportunity to speak with company representatives, discover what kind of employees companies are looking for, and practice interview skills.
