I was born and raised in Japan, but have been studying at a Canadian university for over seven years.

Just finished my thesis and came back to my hometown to seek a job related to materials engineering, but it seems like most of the job entries are closed now.

I also heard most Japanese companies don’t accept any job applications until next spring or so.

I’m feeling like I came back at the worst time for job hunting imaginable, and even considering going back to Canada and getting a job there.

Have any of you been in the same shoes? If so, how did you deal with a situation like this?
