After JET Conference at Pacifico Yokohama (Yokohama, Japan, 02/21/2014)

By James Santagata
Managing Director, SiliconEdge

I had the good fortune to be invited to participate in the 2014 After JET Conference's Career Panel which was held at the Pacifico Yokohama in Yokohama, Japan in February.

We had over 390 participants and the event organizers did an absolutely fantastic job of putting this together and pulling it off so smoothly. Moreover, it was really great to interact with such a large group of very switched-on and ambitious people -- a real pleasure to be there. 

Topic-wise, I tried to draw as much as possible from my Crush Any Interview!™, Fire Your Recruiter!™, Crush Any Career™! High-Impact Resumes and Psychological Jujutsu™ methodologies and programs.

Hope to get invited back next year. :)

A Big "Thanks" To The After JET Sponsors

Hi James, 

Thank you very much for all your help with the After JET Conference! I enjoyed your insights and your honesty during the Panel Discussion. 
Hi James,

Thanks for your talk. I really enjoyed your positive honesty. I hadn't thought of the job search before in the way you described it but it makes sense. I also liked the way you presented actual solutions to help us.
Dear Mr.Santagata!

Thank you once again for your precious advice which gave me some perspective on where I should focus for my career.
Dear James Santagata,

I would like to say that I really appreciated all the advice and insights that you have given me about interviews and the process of starting up my own business. 
 
I look forward to your new book and cannot wait to pick it up.
Hi James,

Thanks for your advice. I didn't know where to even begin in the job search now I do.
Hi James,

I listened to your talk last week on the panel at the After JET Conference last week. Thank you very much for taking the time to talk to us and sharing your experience of Japan!
