Hello redditors. I have received a job offer from Japan where I stated that I will be graduating August 2026 (where all classes and assignments end), work starting at October 2026 as a 新卒。 However, I have now realised that my Convocation Graduation Ceremony along with the official degree certificate is held at February 2027 (yes 6 months after the courses are done…). The full academic transcript and Letter of Award Conferment would also only be available late into September. I think I would not be able to have the company apply for COE in time anymore.
I have worked very hard for this opportunity and am devastated right now. Can I ask for any advice or help? What are the chances of the company allowing me to delay my starting work date? The company is a very large and well known JTC btw.
