Any bilingual (business level) people in IT? I have jobs and no candidates.

Hey sorry for the spam. I don't ever do this but I've been searching for candidates for 5 months with no luck.

I'm part of an international recruitment firm in Japan covering IT positions in West Japan. I have several clients looking for IT people in Nagoya that can speak English and Japanese. I've tried all the traditional approaches but can hardly find people in Nagoya. Even harder to find someone willing to move to Nagoya.

If you're interested, I'm currently covering:

Linux Position - 10,000,000 yen

Network/Infra - 6,000,000 yen

Data Analyst - 9,000,000 yen

Data Engineer - 12,000,000 yen

Desktop Support Manager - 14,000,000 yen

Senior Program Manager (server related) - 20,000,000 yen

All permanent positions.

Please feel free to DM me!

Obscure vending machines around Nagoya

Bit of a strange question. I’m trying to find weird and wonderful vending machines in Nagoya. Example, there is one near Otobashi that sells grilled eel.

Any others?

Male haircut tomorrow

Hi!

I am spending a fee months in Japan and I am currently in Nagoya. I would like to get a haircut, I am a white male. my hair kind of short and basic.

Any recommendations under 5000 yen? It can be much cheaper also just no more than that :)

I am in Fushimi so not super far eould be great, my Japanese is basic but showing pictures can kind of support what I want, no need for them to speak English but that is not too awkward if my JP is bad.

Thans in advance!

2 days in Nagoya in Feb

Hello. I'll be visiting Nagoya for 2 days for work in early February. I'll mostly be working in the days but will hopefully have some free time in the evenings.

Are there any bars or restaurants that people shouldn't miss if they visit? Nothing too fancy necessarily, ideally unique to Nagoya.

I've been reading a lot of what to see and do in days and looks like there's a few nice things but not sure I will have the time. Buy if there's 1 or 2 must sees I would like to try 😎

I'll be coming from (and likely back to) Tokyo..

Things to bring to Japan

Hello all,

I'll be studying abroad at Chukyo University this Spring and wanted to know what I should bring on the plane. Stuff that would make life in the dorms easier, or while I'm out and exploring the city, while on the plane, etc.

Oh, and I will be coming from the US.

Any Nagoya People Interested In Occasional Dinners In Gifu?

If you’re in the area, I would kind of like to have a friend or two to occasionally go to all those places in town that I never get around to trying by myself. I’m kind of in the mood for yakiniku or ghenghis khan bbq or something next weekend (Saturday the 7th).

Would anyone be interested in getting food and drinks? I’d like to expand my social circle a bit.

Recommendations for a winter day trip

Hey everyone!

I'll be going to Japan for the first time and am really excited to explore Nagoya since I'm not a big fan of crowded touristy cities. It will be in February next year and I'm hoping to at least have one day to see snow.

I would have loved to visit the Shirakawago village but the distance and cost is sort of weighing heavily on not being worth going for just a day. The week I'll be visiting has Feb 11 which I believe is a holiday so it makes planning a bit trickier.

I just have a few questions:

  1. Are there any nearer spots we can go to that has nature and snow? I have searched and found Takayama and Gujo but would like to know if there's lesser known nature spots around Nagoya for a nice day trip to just walk around and eat some local food. Preferably not as tourist heavy as well since I want to learn about their local culture.

  2. Is there anything significant with the Feb 11 holiday? We were hoping to go to the Osu shopping street but am worried that stores might be closed and stuff. If there's also a festival or something, we'd love to know and visit!

Thank you!!
