| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have conducted interviews with international students enrolled in Japanese language schools, universities, and graduate schools to find out: (1) what are the differences between newcomers international students (e.g. Vietnamese and Nepalese) and students from China and Korea; (2) what are the characteristics of international students who want to stay in Japan after graduation; and (3) what problems do students who want to work for Japanese companies face and how do they adapt to Japan's unique job-hunting process? Through interviews with Chinese and Vietnamese students, and with school staff who provide job hunting support to international students, we were able to clarify (1) what differences there are among students from China and Vietnam, (2) what characteristics international students who wish to stay in Japan after graduating or completing their studies in Japan have, and (3) what problems they face and how they adapt to the unique job hunting activities in Japan.
