Hi. Where are the higher education jobs in Japan advertised. On GP there are mainly entry level posts. Also how can you become a direct hire AST on more than what the outsourcing companies pay you? It's not worth me moving from where I am in a neighbouring country unless I get more than $3k a month. Don't know if this is possible or not.

And you're already late, schools that are still looking for April 1st (or that are just getting started) are the smaller ones, or offering the less desirable conditions. And in the minority.

The only one I can see is a part time, 4 days a week job paying 10,000 yen a lesson, 8-12 lessons a week. Each lesson is 90 mins. Based on the fact they pay per lesson, it would be a risk to move. OK theoretically 10 lessons say a week would give you 100,000 yen a week (gross?) or 400,000 a month gross. Then after paying say 60,000 rent plus utilities plus tax you'd be left with less than 300,000 which is what I am currently just about getting in a neighbouring country. OK I could top up another 1000 dollars in privates but it would take time. Also being part time, they could I guess mess about with the hours so there's no guarantee you will get 400k a month consistently.

As I noted on your other thread, the better jobs are posted only in Japanese, because the better jobs require Japanese language ability. The Japanese and English versions of JREC-IN are completely different. Currently, there are 68 full-time language teaching positions listed on the Japanese version, but only 13 listed on the English version.

In most ads (in Japanese and English), they don't publish the salary because it depends on your experience and qualifications. (This is the same as academic job ads in the US and many other countries, btw. Not sure about Korea.)

You typically wouldn't get visa sponsorship for a part-time position.
