Hello!
I just wanted to ask the community what steps should I take to land an analyst job here in Japan and if I even have a chance given my background? I’m also hoping I could get some tips on what I need to do to hopefully get an entry-level position in foreign companies.
I am currently working as an advanced maths teacher here in Japan. Back in my home country too, I was working as a maths teacher. I have a bachelor’s degree and a master’s degree, both in maths. But my masters is on theoretical maths and not really applied. Just had few units learning Python and Scilab. I am a Japanese citizen but since I grew up in a different country I have intermediate level Japanese when it comes to reading and writing (JLPT N3). I usually don’t have a problem in speaking the language unless the topic involves very technical terms. I’m planning to study Japanese seriously and enroll myself in school, and hopefully be able to reach business level course by next year. I am also planning to enroll myself in different courses under data analytics and learn SQL.
What other things should I need to work on given these things? I know that companies will always prefer someone with related work experience, so I’m aiming for an entry-level position. Any tips and advices are highly appreciated, thank you!
