Post by Daniel »

I've always been curious, what exactly are those Japanese language tests, and what are they useful for?

Interesting, thanks.

So, when a foreigner is trying to find employment in Japan, do employers look at these tests?

Forgot to add if you apply for a job here check the requirements like test-results, etc before-hand.
Thanks.

Is it possible to take the tests while still living outside of Japan?

Could you please expand on this?


Thanks, you're very helpful!
