   **Working in Japan without speaking Japanese**

   Hey all!

   I have been looking for jobs in Japan in networking field (I’m a senior level Cisco TAC with CCIE -Wireless and I speak fluent English and Arabic – this is just to show my work experience as I’m not sure yet if certain fields might not require the language)

   I have been searching mainly in Osaka and Kobe, and it seems they all require at least business level Japanese.

   I also didn’t find any companies that offer visa sponsorship. I live in Jordan – Middle east and a normal visiting visa to Japan is easy but not sure regarding a working visa.

   I would appreciate if anvone can share their experience in working in Japan in the IT/ networking field as a foreigner

   Thanks in advance!

2. Tokyo might have more jobs without business level japanese.

   Other than that, you can try to look for startups from western foreigners.

   Good luck
