Nursing Care

My desire to work as a care worker in Japan increased during the four years I spent as an EPA care worker candidate, and because I only failed the National Certified Care Worker Examination by seven points, I decided to try again.
I want to quickly pass the National Certified Care Worker Examination and become a teacher in Indonesia to teach people who aim to become nursing care workers in Japan about the benefits of nursing care.

I was worried before coming to Japan, but I quickly got used to living here with my company’s support. I’m glad I was able to learn about Japanese cleaning techniques, the Japanese language, and Japanese culture, so I could work at this company. In the future, I want to help people in Vietnam who want a job involving Japanese or who want to go to Japan.

When I first came to Japan as a technical intern trainee, I had a difficult time learning how to work and live in Japan.
Since coming back to Japan, I have gotten used to Japanese culture and the way of doing things, and my lifestyle has become more relaxing.

I had a lot of difficulties when I first came to Japan, but once I started working, I got stronger and realized that I was helping my family. Now that I’m used to my job, my next goal is to make good products more quickly.
I was filled with anxiety before I came to Japan, but senior employees and my boss trained me well, and I’m so glad now that they count on me.

I’m very fortunate to have had the opportunity to work as a technical intern trainee, as a shipbuilding worker, and now under a Specified Skilled Worker (i) status of residence.
At the company where I work, I have experience as a trainee and a worker, and my job is easy now that I am used to my company and my welding duties.
I would like to work hard as a group organizer, teaching this job to trainees and workers at the worksite.
It is convenient with the dormitory located close to the company and a supermarket.

I took the Specified Skilled Worker qualification exam for the Aviation Field and was able to find employment. I’m glad I was able to join this company, since I’ve always been interested in the aviation industry. The support I was given both before and after I began work was outstanding, and I’m incredibly grateful.
I enjoy my job, and I haven’t had any problems. Whenever I don’t understand something, I just ask, and the issue is resolved. The job is satisfying with good pay.

I mainly perform restaurant service tasks and similar work. The job is rewarding because there are opportunities for promotion. I often hear directly from customers or receive feedback in surveys where my name is mentioned, so that keeps me motivated.

It’s important to create a workplace where all staff members can work in comfort and enjoy their jobs. Since we also want to provide services that satisfy our customers, the work is quite meaningful. I would like to apply the Japanese approach to customer service in my own country.

It’s difficult to imagine what customers are thinking while I work, but I find it to be rewarding and enjoyable. Instead of being told everything, I prefer to learn by observing and doing my best, asking more experienced employees nearby whenever there is something I don’t understand.
