English major, what can I do when I go to work in Japan?

I think what I can do when I choose to work in Japan has nothing to do with my major. The key is to see what kind of job you like, what kind of job you are suitable for and what kind of job you are willing to do. Only by comprehensive consideration can we know what we can do and stick to it.

Although Japanese is spoken in Japan, English, as a common language abroad, can also be enjoyed there. I think I can accomplish the following tasks by myself, depending on my choice:

If you want to engage in the catering industry in Japan, you can find a Chinese-run restaurant to do it bit by bit. The waiter will be the front desk supervisor first, then the manager on duty, and then continue to be promoted to the manager. This is also a good choice. The premise is that you can really endure hardships and persist, and cooking is still tiring.

Or you don't want to engage in such manual labor, and you don't want your major in college to be wasted. You can also do translation work in Japan. English translation is also very good, with more technical content, which tests your professional skills. But I think this is more difficult, unless your English level has reached the level of perfection, and you are familiar with many words and sentences clearly.

Or you can go to an educational institution in Japan to be an English teacher and a Chinese teacher and teach English and Chinese in a bilingual way. This is also a very good choice. It is also meaningful, after all, education is a very great and far-reaching thing, and it is worth working hard as a lifelong career.
