Finding job during work holiday

Hello, I am seeking help on work related questions.

I'm currently applying to master degrees in France but in case I cannot get into one that I have an interest in, I'm preparing a second plan which is doing a work holiday visa in Japan. I graduated in August last year after spending a year in a university in Tokyo where I joined regular courses in japanese only. As I reaaaaally miss Japan I plan to move there after my master degree (or wh). I already know where I would be living and how life works there but I have no experiences related to finding a job in Japan. I suppose my work experience outside of uni won't matters much there.

My questions are the following :

– Where to search for jobs ?

– How to apply ? CV and cover letter, do you need to write one for every offer ?

My keigo isn't the best, all my keigo knowledge is mostly related about how to write a proper report and daily life matters. Would that be a big issue for a job ? I would like in the future to get a work visa, is the process for going from Work Holiday to Work visa difficult ? I currently hold a degree of Japanese culture with a focus on international relations and economics, what kind of job could I find without experience ? Which is why I would like to do a master degree first

Considering nenkin, would I need to pay it full ? I don't really remember the rules, got into a lot of problems last year because my City Hall messed up my informations so I kinda would like to not get into any issues this time…

Sorry about how I wrote that, I did not wrote a draft before and just went along with what I was thinking on the moment. Decided to make this post after another day of being depressed in the middle of nowhere thinking about my friends in Japan.
