As a non Japanese person, what sort of good jobs may I get in business?

You mean coming to Japan? It’s highly unlikely you would be ‘just as hireable as a Japanese person’ regardless of your degree. Even assuming you speak perfect Japanese, why would a Japanese company hire you, considering the cost of moving you to Japan, having to help you get living arrangements, etc, etc, when they could just hire a native Japanese person with the exact same degree (MBA, Finance, etc) from a Japanese college? Most Japanese companies are in no great hurry to hire foreigners just for the sake of hiring them.

However, there are plenty of jobs in Tokyo where English is required, many in the financial field. The question is really what is your Japanese ability? Just because you have a degree in Japanese isn’t going to convince these companies that you can really communicate. You need to pass level 2 of the 日本語能力試験, at a minimum, to have any chance. Many of these companies require you to pass level 1. Taking the BJT Business Japanese Proficiency Test (and scoring well) might also be a good idea.

If you can meet those requirements, and you have a degree in finance, an MBA, CMA, CFA, etc, then yes, you can make some good money working in Tokyo. Here is a link to a job placement site used by English speaking professionals to find jobs in Japan.

Best of luck!

How do you say, “Do you want sushi with that?” in Japanese?

Are you looking for a job in Japan? Or is it with a Japanese company in the USA? Or what???? You don’t say.

With your attitude [read that last sentence again], you’re going to have problems getting a good job in a Japanese company.

Domo arigato.
