Interviewing in Japan
Today I had an interview with a headhunter in Tokyo. They have a position they’re submitting me for. It looks like a great fit. The only issue is that it’s a lead position and I’m not sure I’m up for that task. Maybe they will accept my Microsoft experience as adequate for managing people.
The company is quite small which is something I’ve been really looking for. Also, their product is an embedded device. Since working on the Windows Mobile team, I have developed serious gadget lust so I’m pretty stoked. We’ll see how this all turns out. I don’t have any expectations, but it would be cool to live in Japan for a while.
Sounds pretty cool — please tell me that they would have you manage japanese people who speak no english.
Maybe they’ll teach you Japanese if you teach them Microsoft. What about the work visa stuff? I’m sure your Grandpa knows about that angle. So they have head hunters in the land of short people, eh? Well, you have a head so that should work out just fine.
