Navigating a ¾ÍšÃæ½Ó (sh¨±shoku mensetsu, job interview) in Japan can be a challenging experience, with a meticulous ’ñÓÃ¥×¥í¥»¥¹ (saiy¨ purosesu, hiring process) that focuses on éLÆÚ¹ÍÓà (ch¨ki koy¨, long-term employment) as a goal.
To succeed, it¡¯s a good idea to prepare answers in advance to the questions you might be asked during an interview. Heads up, there is going to be a lot of ¾´ÕZ (keigo, honorific language) involved.
In general, ¾´ÕZ can be categorized in three types: ¶¡ŒŽÕZ (teineigo, polite language), ×ð¾´ÕZ (sonkeigo, respectful language) and Öt×jÕZ (°ì±ð²ÔÂᨲµ´Ç, humble language). Each is defined by its own specific words and structures, and you¡¯ll decide which one you need to use depending on who you are speaking to or about.
