So Let's be clear, you need a degree and a good attitude to get into JET. Everything else is bonus points. Noone needs Japanese to do the JET programme, and many of the people I have met over the...

Hey! I knew perfectly well that I wanted to be a lay about teaching english for peanuts for the rest of my life... How I fucked up after JET and got this super well paying job is fucking beyond me....

I wonder how that works... usually they want a letter of rec from your current employer or a current professor, but most Japanese language schools don't count as academic institutions.

You mean we're already on the new service?

Yes, it's probably time.

Ini's description is how I always understood it.

Private school got a bit more leeway, but were otherwise in the same boat.

Random jackass joe could get a cert provided by the prefecture,...

I wouldn't worry about it, specifically because you don't have enough money to warrant sueing.

See now that's the funny thing, it now shows me 13 unread on the phone and a few days ago it showed me none....

talk about a load of junk eh?

Not gonna lie, I was thinking the same thing, but if this has been a problem for a while that might explain why no new people have shown up at all in ages.

Saw this over on reddit.

Quite possible that we're having new user registration issues and never knew about it.

If it is laughably easy, welcome to the shit I opted out of when I was a JET.

It will be a cold day in hell when CLAIR gives JETs a reasonable Japanese learning program, as this is the group which...

Any updates? The unread feature still appears to be shot.

BB can you check again, my PC brings up tons of unread, but my taptalk brings up nothing.

While the tone of mothy's message was a bit rough, I absolutely agree with him. One month is actually quite a bit of time, and should be more than sufficient. You are also fogetting that the first...

Your CO cannot stop you at immigration without extensive proof. Flee the country and you will be in a long line of ALTs who have fucked off. It's a totally non issues, good travels to you :)

Cheers BB, always our silent savior.

Sorry BB,

I tried accessing the site ten minutes ago and tapatalk said there is nothing to read under unread.

As it stands, I've got 6 threads under new which require reading.

I have not...

Also as a buddy of mine found out, even though he put no-driving on his application, he was required to drive once he got here.

Okay so there's a good chance you got nuked on paperwork.

A) A reference should be relatively current, and by people who have directly supervised you.
B) The only transcript you should provide is...

Companies don't necessarily tell you where you will be placed either, unless it's one of the much smaller chains/independants. You goto their central training spot X/Y, train up, get shipped off to...

Well, the goal of the program is for people to go home when they're done. When you say stay in Japan, what do you plan to do there? What about staying in Japan will further your long term career...

Dunno, I got one in my fourth year, but I hear about newbies getting em super easy.

Ya a credit card might as well be a debit given it doesn't cost you anything to pay it all off on the next bill

Just email your consulate.

You usually get your jet number once you arrive as the insurance forms are filled by your boe on your behalf.
