looking for a job

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello!

I'm here in Kobe, Japan and pursuing a master's degree. My concern is about my family who is coming over in June and will be staying here for a long time. My Filipino husband wants to work here. He's a Human Resources Manager in the Philippines for four years now in different multi-national companies but mostly call centers for American and European companies. Is it possible for him to apply for a job here of the same nature, meaning in the field of Human Resources? Although he's also interested in teaching English because he's fluent in English.

Hope you can help me out in this.Thanks so much!

Hypiereon has summed it up well at non-teaching jobs.

Unless you have any real competetency in the language of the country you want to work in, then it will be difficult to get that non-teaching job.

Thanks so much Gfell for your enlightening reply. Maybe my husband shoud try first to apply for a teaching position here in Japan.

That's would be the best choice. Start of teaching English and then make the move into another job industry if the opportunity arises.
