I currently have a job offer from NOVA, and while I am well aware of their horrible reputation, I don't see any glaringly obvious "better routes" to get into Japan in the short-term. I am finally getting my diploma this summer, and I will need my visa sponsored.
The most common alternative is GABA, which doesn't seem to have a better reputation themselves anyways. Other than this, it seems that the "safest" route is building job experience at home, and eventually moving after gaining fluency. While I get the logic behind this, life is always moving fast and I worry that job opportunity/girlfriends/aging family will stunt any opportunity to do what I really want in life. Are there any alternate job opportunities that have slipped my mind that I should look into. However, I am only an N5 speaker.
Thank you all for any advice!
