Thank you so much for this video? May I ask, during the short Japanese test/conversation, what kind of questions should I expect? I am still learning basic Japanese. Thank you so much!
Hi shivani thank you so much for this video. Could you tell me what you answered for these questions? 1. @6:54 managing problem children 2. @7:28 about the homesickness 3. Do you have any recommendations about regions in japan ( I am not aware of most regions and also yeah I am aware, that I won't get the region but still a bit of help would be appreciated) 4. also if you dont mind telling how much money did you take for the first two months? 5. @10:31 what rhyme did you teach , and how did you answer the second question. Can you use the 3 mi uses of prep time to look on the internet for the answer? Sorry for the long question 😅😂
You should be answering these questions according to what you think :) For the region it really depends on what kind of life you like. Japan is pretty uniform across all cities so any region is good in my opinion but most people like to choose the Kanto/Kansai region because they want to live in Tokyo or Osaka. Living in the heart of the city can be expensive though.
@@shivaasaemeow5771 could you please tell me if we need to maintain a Native accent in the interview or not? Like do they pay attention on how you are pronouncing your *Ws* and *Vs* ? Do we need to sound like a British, Canadian, American, Australian or New Zealander?
@@shivaasaemeow5771 hey, Shivani, needed to ask something. How many days it took for Borderlink's HR representatives to get back to you? I applied yesterday and they sent a confirmation email saying that incase I pass the initial screening, they will contact me again.
thank you for another great video! this was pretty direct and so helpful. And yes I can't wait for a video about the salary in JP. 😁 Also what are your plans after your teaching course is over? Will you apply for JP again or choose other countries?
Hello. Thanks for the video. I want to ask if putting an amount as low as 190000 jpy on the application form can possibly hurt ones chances of getting the job?
Hi!! I'm so glad I stumbled upon your channel because I'm an aspiring alt in Japan and I'm from Northeast India. I actually heard back from Borderlink last week saying I've passed the 1st round but I haven't submitted my application because of two reasons and please help me. 😅 1) How did they contact your references? I have a very less working experience so it's kinda hard for me to ask one. 2) For the proof of 12yrs of English education, what did you use? I tried googling and haven't had any luck!!
Hi, congratulations on getting through round 1! I don't know if they contacted my refs or not tbh. For proof of English education you have to get a bonafide certificate from your school/s from grade 1-12 stating that while you were at the school, the medium of instruction was english
Hi again!!! I actually got into borderlink and we're gonna start processing my visa application soon... Can I dm you on IG as I've got some questions that I don't understand?? 😅😅
@@pritharaha9489 hi!! Congratulations!! Yes we can connect on IG but i dont wanna say my IG name as it's private 😅😅how do we do it?? Idk if it's possible to have a private message on youtube
Please reply . While you moved from your country to Japan how much money did you carry ? Did the company provided and helped you with all those Visa and needed documents for moving?
Hey Shivaa, I would like to know that can Borderlink accept new teachers into Japan from September to December or the process is waiting until April 2023?
@@shivaasaemeow5771 thanks, I had today my PROGOS speaking test, will have my final interview after few days so hope for the best, are you still there ?
Hello Shivani,is boardlink provide facility for kid's bcoz i have kid she is 2.5 yers old. Or else you know anyone who work having small kid is they provide help please let me know
I don't think any company provides a 'facility' for your child. They will help you move here, and might offer some suggestions but you'd have to navigate the rest on your own.
Did you apply for a visa after getting the job? How long does it take to wait for the job interview results? What subject did you take as a core in College/University? Are there any Indian English teachers other than you? What about your bank? Did you open a new bank account? Did you bring your money in cash? I'm so lost please
The company should usually guide you about the visa process when and if you get in. Your college major has no bearing on if you get in or not, as long as you have a college degree. Yes, there are other Indian English teachers apart from me. Your company will help you open a bank account when you get here, usually a Japan Post bank account. You can bring cash/forex card/credit card. It's up to you as long as you're able to access your money when you get here.
Great to see your RUclips video and Chanel. I am also from India. Where are you from India.😊 I have applied for ALT position in Borderlink. Waiting for a positve response. Can I get to know how many days they say the replay for our mail. Thank you in advance.😊

Thank you! I taught for two years and am now back in my home country 😊
Another banger video!!!!!
Thank youuu!!
now that you have been an alt for a year, would you recommend borderlink?
I personally had a good experience with them but I know people who didn’t have very good experiences as well 😅
great video !
Thank you 😊
I got the Emplyment Application Form from them recently. Can you tell me what to fill in References section? Is that about Education Or Work?
@@it.s_balu if you have work references, those would be better.
When did you get to Japan? Hope to be there soon. Hope to meet u as well since we will be in the same company
When did you apply? Is it fine if I apply in June? Also what documents do you need to keep in hand before apply?
If someone is not picked after the first interview, can one apply again?
Thank you for the video.Do they mind nose percing?
It’s a clip on, I don’t wear it to school :)
Hello. Thanks for the video. I want to ask if putting an amount as low as 190000 jpy on the application form can possibly hurt ones chances of getting the job?
I'm not completely sure, but it could.
Thanks it helps alot
Tomorrow is my interview
God help me🙏
I hope it went well 😊
how did you fill the application form??
during the 2nd one on one interview, did they ask you to do teaching demonstration?
Yep: 10:20
Hi Shivani
I want to start teaching from September so can I apply in the month of August?
Lol no visa process takes 3-4 months
I applied in the middle of the year in 2021 and went there in March 2022

Yes, the company helped me with all the aspects of moving to Japan. I mentioned the necessary amount in the video :)
hlo sis yesterday i got confirmation of application mail from border link. In how many days it will take to get actual update from them?
What is your position you working for?
Hey... I want to ask something about this ...
Please does someone know about PROGOS speaking, i have my 2nd stage interview with boarderlink please has anyone done 2nd stage
Hai. If I may ask, how was your interview?
I have a schedule interview with them, im so nervous😢
Hey Shivaa, I would like to know that can Borderlink accept new teachers into Japan from September to December or the process is waiting until April 2023?
They sometimes do, but I’m not completely sure if that’s the case right now.
Likes and dislikes ? With the help of fruits ? Could you please elaborate it
For example: 'What fruits do you like?' - 'I like strawberries' or 'I don't like cherries'. Using the correct volume, pauses, speed, gestures etc.
@@shivaasaemeow5771 thanks, I had today my PROGOS speaking test, will have my final interview after few days so hope for the best, are you still there ?
@@shivaasaemeow5771 could you kindly tell me about the tenses they ask in the interview?
Can we do any part-time job apart from the main job?
You can, as long as you get a stamp from immigration that lets you work outside your visa status.
@@shivaasaemeow5771 I am already in Japan, thanks for your informative videos!

Mam what certification are necessary for this job??
Graduation in any course (College/University degree), Mode of education should be in English and a TEFL certificate will be helpful.
Any 4 year degree and you should shoe that all your teaching was in english
Did you apply for a visa after getting the job? How long does it take to wait for the job interview results? What subject did you take as a core in College/University? Are there any Indian English teachers other than you? What about your bank? Did you open a new bank account? Did you bring your money in cash? I'm so lost please

Do you have any part time job?

Field doesn't matter, as long a you have a degree :)
