PROFILE

After graduating from university with a degree in foreign languages, I worked at a domestic hotel before embarking on a working holiday in Vancouver, Canada. Upon returning to Japan, I joined a certain foreign airline, leveraging my English proficiency acquired through studying abroad in California, USA during my student days and my experience from the working holiday, to work as a flight attendant (FA). Working out of Dubai, I gained not only English proficiency but also improved my expressive and communication skills while flying to various destinations worldwide. Currently, I provide English coaching for job seekers while also supporting them in their career transitions and job hunting as a career counselor.

Q
Could you please tell me about your previous work experience?
During my time as a flight attendant (FA), I had the opportunity to travel to seven or eight countries a month, accompanied by a diverse crew with various backgrounds. Destinations ranged from European cities like Paris and Venice to places I had never heard of before, such as South Africa and Kenya. Some flights lasted over 12 hours, and while battling fatigue was a challenge, spending a day on board always led to interesting stories. Upon arrival, I would always forget about my fatigue and venture out to explore. Flights to Japan were particularly special, as our team would review Japanese hospitality together before the flight. It was a moment where I felt proud to serve as a Japanese FA and recognized the appreciation for Japanese service worldwide. The COVID-19 pandemic brought an abrupt halt to my busy flight schedule, giving me the opportunity to reflect on my next steps. Just as I realized my dream career through overseas experience, I began to feel a growing desire to support others in their pursuit of challenges abroad.
Q
Why did you decide to join and work for J Styles?
I was excited about the work J-Styles is doing to connect Japan and the world, and I wanted to support "post-return career" using my own experiences. My working holiday experience in Canada was a significant turning point for me, leading to a global career as a flight attendant (CA) for an airline. Drawing from that experience, I aim to support the self-realization of individuals with overseas experience by providing advice from both the perspective of job seekers and that of companies.
Q
What impression do you have of J Styles?
The team gives the impression of each member leveraging their unique experiences and strengths. The environment, where we can empathize with each other from an international perspective, is very comfortable for me. Moreover, everyone in the team is passionate about helping others, which constantly inspires me.
Q
Could you please explain your current job responsibilities?
As a career counselor, I support job seekers through daily counseling sessions. I particularly focus on individuals who are struggling with their careers after returning from working holiday experiences, those who are planning to challenge themselves overseas, and foreign nationals seeking employment opportunities in Japan. Amidst many individuals who are still in the process of self-discovery, I strive to provide counseling and suggestions that align with their aspirations, sometimes sharing my own experiences and engaging in conversations beyond just career-related topics.
Q
A word of advice for those aiming to pursue a career where they can excel globally!
In addition to English language skills, I believe that flexibility of thinking and initiative are also crucial for thriving in a global environment. These attributes, often unnoticed by individuals themselves, are naturally developed by those who have experience studying abroad or participating in working holiday programs.

From my perspective as someone with overseas experience, I aim to bring out the invisible strengths and potential of individuals. Please feel free to reach out for a consultation!
