I'm M23 Civil Engineer, 2023 Board Passer. I have 1-year on-site experience.
I've tried to look and attend interviews in 2 different entry level position in company have both offers free Nihongo class but different career path (Design work vs field work):
*Company 1 (Design) is a Japan Company Based in the Philippines. Included free Nihongo class while working. And also required bound to Japan Training (1 year duration). Accommodation is discounted.
*Company 2 (Field) is an agency. They offer Free nihongo class & accommodation with allowance given for a year only. Then bound to Japan after successfully passing the N5 to N2. (On-site work) Contract for 3 years. Salary range for entry level is 3x they offer here in Philippines. I'm really worried that after 3 years, my contract will end and I have to look for another job again, or they will offer an extension which is good, and I will be aiming for permanent residency in Japan.
Will it be worth it to focus on JLPT exams and passed the N2, or should I go in company that both earning while learning Nihongo and also guaranteed to work in Japan for only a year. What advice you can give me to push myself and grab this opportunity to work in abroad.
