Requirements & Notes

【Washokujob’s Points of Recommendation】
・This job offers visa support
 As you know, obtaining a visa in America is quite difficult, so this is a rare chance for you to obtain one through your job.
・You can gain experience in many different areas
 While this may be a kaiten-zushi restaurant, they value making each piece of sushi individually by hand
 Because it is very important to them to create a continually satisfying experience for their customers, the restaurant would now like to hire a sushi chef straight from Japan.
 Aside from cooking, you will also work on menu development, training of staff, providing advice on the business-side of things, and more, making this a great opportunity for you to gain experience in many areas and further solidify your career.

【About Tacoma】
Tacoma is a port city on the west coast of America. It is about a 1-hour drive south of Seattle.
You can take direct flights to Tacoma from Japan, and the flight time is rather short, making it a popular travel destination among Japanese people.
The climate is nice and it does not rain much in the summer, with highs around 70 degrees.
