Bilingual Talent Recruitment & Staffing Services
We introduce over 14,000 skilled Japanese-speaking individuals who have work experience both internationally and within Japan.
The candidates we introduce include those who posses valid work-eligible resident statuses, such as "Engineer/Specialist in Humanities/International Services," or "Student Visa" holders who are generally eligible to apply for a working visa.
We can also introduce bilingual and multilingual Japanese nationals.
Our experienced consultants will propose the most suitable talent to address your company's specific needs.
Do you have any of these concerns?
Turn "Language Barrier" into "Team Strength". YAMAGATA will solve your bilingual talent acquisition concerns.
The language barrier is hindering our team's potential.
Without this barrier, more results could have been achieved. We feel frustrated with the significant effects of even a subtle difference in nuance.
We were able to hire highly skilled staff, but they don’t stay due to cultural differences.
Even with sufficient professional skills, some members struggle to integrate into the team due to cultural differences. I’m not sure what kind of support they need so they’ll be able to leverage their abilities and contribute to the company long-term.
Current training programs don't resonate with bilingual talents.
Trainings designed for Japanese employees are not as effective due to language and cultural barriers. Despite the costly investment, it fails to foster staff development, leaving us endlessly searching for the optimal approach.
We're spending far too much time on complex procedures.
Post-hiring, complex processes, especially visa-related applications, tend to drain our resources. We really want to hand these over to experts, to allow us to focus on our core recruiting strategy and organizational development.
