Hello all, sorry for the format (on mobile).
I am moving to Japan in ~6 months to be together with my fiancée (Japanese) with a spouse visa, we are very excited to start our new life.
Considering our personal situations in our lives, Japan is the best option for us. However, I’m worried about the job prospects.
Years ago, I was forced to stop my studies at the university I was attending, and now moving to Japan with no college degree is, naturally, a bit scary.
I had ONE previous work experience in an office before, but I doubt it has credibility without proving Japanese language skills (I’m working on it, but it’s not progressing fast enough)
I would be okay with a konbini or warehouse job, but can’t imagine doing it for longer than a year or two and would eventually like to branch out to something else.
Is there any hope for someone like me?
Thank you for reading
