Nursing Care Field

  • My desire to work as a care worker in Japan increased during the four years I spent as an EPA care worker candidate, and because I only failed the National Certified Care Worker Examination by seven points, I decided to try again.
  • I want to quickly pass the National Certified Care Worker Examination and become a teacher in Indonesia to teach people who aim to become nursing care workers in Japan about the benefits of nursing care.

Industrial Product Manufacturing (previously the Machine Parts and Tooling / Industrial Machinery / Electric, Electronics and Information Industries field)

  • The Japanese people are kind, and there are numerous company events, so both my work life and personal life are fulfilling.
  • I was filled with anxiety before I came to Japan, but senior employees and my boss trained me well, and I’m so glad now that they count on me.

Industrial Product Manufacturing (previously the Machine Parts and Tooling / Industrial Machinery / Electric, Electronics and Information Industries field)

  • I had a lot of difficulties when I first came to Japan, but once I started working, I got stronger and realized that I was helping my family. Now that I’m used to my job, my next goal is to make good products more quickly.
  • I want to take the things I’ve learned about the Japanese way of thinking, etiquette, service, and so on back with me to Vietnam. I feel that I have been able to improve my skills and grow more than I expected since coming to Japan.

Construction Field

  • When I first came to Japan as a technical intern trainee, I had a difficult time learning how to work and live in Japan.
  • Since coming back to Japan, I have gotten used to Japanese culture and the way of doing things, and my lifestyle has become more relaxing.

Shipbuilding and Ship Machinery Field

  • I’m very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work as a technical intern trainee, as a shipbuilding worker, and now under a Specified Skilled Worker (i) status of residence.
  • At the company where I work, I have experience as a trainee and a worker, and my job is easy now that I am used to my company and my welding duties.
  • I would like to work hard as a group organizer, teaching this job to trainees and workers at the worksite.
  • It is convenient with the dormitory located close to the company and a supermarket.

Building Cleaning Management Field

  • I was worried before I came to Japan, but with support from my company, I was able to get used to living in Japan quickly.
  • I was able to learn about Japanese building cleaning techniques, the Japanese language, and Japanese culture. I’m glad I worked at this company!
  • In the future, I want to help other people in Vietnam who want to go to Japan or to have a job involving the Japanese language.
