Summary
After working as a project manager / UX designer at a big platform company in Japan (Recruit Co., Ltd.), I worked for 1 year and 9 months as a corporate communications specialist at Recruit Holdings Co., Ltd., which owns one of the biggest job searching platforms, Indeed and Glassdoor. There I wrote blog articles both in English and Japanese, targeting investors worldwide to share corporate activities. I was also responsible for managing social media accounts, LinkedIn and Twitter.
Because the companies allowed to have side jobs, I got translation jobs (EN > JA) from several different clients from time to time to enhance my job experience. Since 2023, I'm a freelance project manager / UX designer / translator, currently working for RIZAP GROUP, Inc. and HelloTalk.
