Hello, I was wondering how likely it is to get a part time job on a working holiday visa in Japan?
I am from Aus and my partner (21F) and I (20M) are wanting to move to Japan for about 6months on a working holiday visa and were wondering if it is possible to find a part time job whilst visiting? We have checked out GaijinPot as it has been suggested to us but we weren’t sure as we couldn’t contact them to ask questions. I have also looked up the Tokyo Employment Service Centre for Foreigners, but couldn’t contact them either.
The problem I’m facing is neither of us currently have a Bachelor’s degree in anything and aren’t even N5 level Japanese speakers.
Is it possible to get a job, even in teaching or part time hotel, cleaning, or onsen staff?
Thank you all!

Eikaiwa is probably your best bet. Depending on the season you could probably also find work at ski resorts. I would strongly recommend doubling down on language studies though. It will open more options for you and just enable you to have more fun.
Love putting insane amounts of mayonnaise into sandwiches? No… more than that, keep going, the bread should be soaked with mayonnaise. Still appealing? We have the job for you! https://we-xpats.com/en/job/as/jp/search?q=food%20manufacturing
If you have hospo experience you can work in the ski fields
