Welcome

Thank you for the thousands of emails in support of the original translations of Japanese Twitter accounts of the March 11th quake on my Facebook note, "Japan Quake as Seen from Twitter". Now, together with ten classmates and friends in the University of Cambridge, I have launched this blog to continue translating the voices of the Japanese people on their road to recovery.

Job Interviews on Skype

There were senior-year students who were applying for jobs in my company but could not come to our office to complete their final-round interviews because of the quake and tsunami.  My company sent each one a mic and camera, and I've just finished interviewing all of them on Skype video chat.  It actually felt very natural and efficient.  Maybe we should make Skype interviews our standard from now on!

被災の関係で来社できない学生にマイクとカメラを郵送し、スカイプのビデオ通話を使った最終面接を終了。全く違和感なく面接を終えました。来年度は関西方面の学生もスカイプで良いかも。
