share an opportunity with the JETAA community
Why post a job to the JETAA community?
The JET alumni community is nearly 75,000 strong worldwide with over half of those alumni in the USA.
Alumni work in and across all sectors and industries from health care to education to law to civil service and beyond.
JETs are naturals at bridging the cultural gap between the US and Japan having spent anywhere from 1-5 years in the Japanese workforce throughout Japan, from small countryside towns to big cities. They understand how to navigate both professional and social situations, drawing upon their extensive and immersive experience in Japan during their tenure on the JET Program.
JETs have varying levels of Japanese language and cultural competencies which they are eager to exercise after their tenure on the Program.
This is a highly educated group of individuals who are globally curious. Approximately 50% of JET alumni go on to earn graduate or higher degrees post-JET.
All participants of this competitive program were vetted and approved by the Japanese Government to work in public schools and town halls / offices throughout Japan.
Many companies have recognized the deep skills and talents this niche community has and have started working with USJETAA in different capacities to connect with alumni. We invite you to post your job to our community of JET alumni job seekers, or if you’d like a more sustained relationship, please consider corporate sponsorship.
