How jobs appear on Machi
Condition labels
Japanese level, “Foreigners welcome” and “Students welcome”, visa support, and whether hours can stay within 28 a week appear on each job. Missing details are marked “Japanese requirement not stated” or “Hours need confirmation”.
Distance and alerts
Job seekers can search by distance, view jobs on a map and save searches to get new jobs at 7 pm every day.
Company pages
Open roles, visa support and moderated anonymous interview and workplace reviews in one place, with chain brands grouped by store.
Two kinds of listings
Official listings
Taken from employers' public recruitment pages. Applying opens your own site, and Machi never collects résumés.

Posting requirements
Spell out the terms
State hourly or monthly pay, working hours, the Japanese level needed and any residence-status conditions. Pay that doesn't add up is marked “Salary pending review”.
Never charge candidates
No hiring deposits, training fees or guarantees.
Be clear about Specified Skilled Worker
A field is an industry category, not a statement that you'll hire under it. If you do, say so in the job description.
Violations come down
Fake jobs, paid recruitment and discriminatory conditions are removed, and accounts may be restricted.
What we don't promise
No guaranteed results
Machi doesn't guarantee reach, applications or hires.
Immigration decides visas
The Immigration Services Agency decides residence status. Visa-related labels on a job are only pointers.
