Hi,

I am an Australian Citizen and qualified electrical engineer and wanting to work in Japan.
Is the only way to obtain a working visa is by sponsorship from a company in Japan.
i would have thought this would prove rather difficult obtaining while in Australia, as they would want to physically meet the prospective employee before signing them up.

Would my best approach be go to Japan on a working holiday visa (i currently meet all the criterias)
Once i find suitable work. Request for sponsorship and change my working holiday visa to a work visa.

Is that possible.

Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated

Thankyou
