5 years experience is more than enough to get a job here in Japan but can you tell us the following:

1) Japanese Skills?
2) Any Certifications in your field?

rental fee is depends on the place.. most rural place cheaper.. means in Tokyo is the most expensive place in Japan.. around 100,000jpy per month for single (can be for double) includes basic appliances to live such as Ref., Microwave, Gas Stove, Auto-washing machine, Split type Aircon-heater, english-japanese TV, near by Train Station and etc....

A little bit same with Osaka even it is province because it is a famous place and there is a lot of foreigners living around... but for sure the foods are great and very affordable..

but I got 60,000jpy in Tokyo good for 2 person and only the place ... I provide all that on my own..
