Job-hunting in Japan

　In Japan, almost of all companies usually hire new staff in April. If we miss the timing, it will be really hard to find a job. Therefore, we usually start job-hunting in the winter of our junior year, and we almost look for a job during nearly 6 months. One of the reason why the job-hunting take such a long time is that Japanese companies like to conduct employment exams. Actually, some companies conduct the exams more than 7 times. I think this is useless custom indeed. We should use our time to our study instead of job-hunting.
