With the expanding globalization, expectation towards international students as \u201chighly skilled specialists\u201d are on the rise. The number of foreign students finding employment in Japanese companies is increasing every year. According to the statistics by the Ministry of Justice, the number of overseas students who have changed their resident status from \u201cstudy\u201d to \u201cemployment\u201d was 15,657 people in 2015, marking a new record high. Many Japanese companies require their foreign employees to \u201cunderstand Japanese corporate culture\u201d and have \u201chigh-level communication skills in Japanese\u201d.
