I will be moving back to the Philippines from Japan next year and my Japanese partner is coming with me. He's going to start job hunting soon. We're wondering if Accenture PH also hires Japanese nationals and supports visa processing?

Hi everyone! I'm a 28F who has been living and working in Japan for about 5 years. I'm planning to return to the Philippines permanently next year, so I'm currently researching possible career opportunities in Manila.

I've been working as an English preschool teacher in Japan, but my job involves more than teaching. I also handle various administrative tasks, communicate with parents, coordinate with coworkers, prepare documents and materials, and sometimes communicate directly with Japanese parents when my Japanese colleagues aren't available.

I currently have JLPT N2 and I'm studying for N1, which I hope to pass this December.

I'm particularly interested in Accenture, especially because I'd like to use my Japanese language skills in a corporate environment rather than continue working in education.

I'd love to hear from people currently working (or who have previously worked) at Accenture PH, especially those in Japanese-speaking/bilingual roles.

I'm curious about:

1. What Japanese-speaking roles are available at Accenture Philippines? Are there opportunities in areas such as customer service, operations, HR/recruitment, IT, project support, etc.?
2. Would N2 be enough to apply, or do most Japanese-speaking positions require N1?
3. Does having several years of work experience in Japan help when applying? My experience isn't in IT, so I'm wondering how much of a disadvantage that would be.
4. What salary range should I realistically expect for a Japanese-speaking position with my background?
5. Are there any skills, certifications, or technical knowledge I should start learning while I'm still in Japan to make myself a stronger candidate?
6. For anyone who made a similar transition from working in Japan to working in the Philippines, how was the hiring process and adjustment?

I'm open to changing career paths and don't necessarily want to continue teaching when I return. I'm currently trying to prepare myself over the next year rather than wait until I'm back in the Philippines to start looking.

I'd really appreciate hearing from anyone with firsthand experience at Accenture, particularly Japanese bilingual employees or people who transitioned from working in Japan.

Thank you!

Hi everyone! I'm a 28F who has been living and working in Japan for about 5 years. I'm planning to return to the Philippines permanently next year, and I'm currently trying to figure out what kind of career I could transition into.

I've been working as an English preschool teacher in Japan, but my job isn't purely teaching. I also regularly handle administrative tasks, communicate with parents, coordinate with coworkers, prepare documents/materials, and deal with situations where Japanese communication is necessary. I sometimes communicate directly with Japanese parents when my Japanese-speaking colleagues aren't available.

I currently have JLPT N2 and I'm studying for N1, which I hope to pass this December.

Since I'll be returning to the Philippines with several years of experience living and working in Japan, I'm wondering how useful my Japanese skills and experience would be in the Philippine job market.

I'm particularly curious about:

1. What kinds of jobs do Japanese-speaking Filipinos usually get in the Philippines?
2. What salary range is realistic for someone with N2/N1 and around 5 years of work experience in Japan?
3. Does having actual work experience in Japan give you an advantage when applying for Japanese-related jobs in the Philippines?
4. For those who made a similar move from Japan back to the Philippines, what kind of job did you end up getting, and what was the application process like?
5. Are there any skills/certifications I should start working on now while I'm still in Japan to improve my chances of getting a good-paying job when I return?

I'm not necessarily looking to continue teaching, so I'm also open to hearing about career paths that I may not have considered.

I'd really appreciate hearing from people who have actually worked in Japanese-speaking/bilingual positions in the Philippines, especially those who also transitioned from working in Japan.

Thank you!
