STEP 1: APPLY FOR THE PROGRAM

Registration for the program is done directly from the American Adventure website https://workandtravel.rs/prijava/ After receiving the application, you will be contacted by a representative of the American Adventure agency who will be in charge of running your application until the moment of obtaining a visa. The application package with documentation, contract and brochure will be sent to you by email.

At this stage of the program, the candidate also signs a contract with the American Adventure Agency and is obliged to submit the documentation required for the further course of the program and for its placement for an interview with the employer within the set deadline. Upon signing the Agreement, the payment of the first installment of the program in the amount of $ 200 in dinar equivalent at the middle exchange rate of the NBS on the day of payment follows.

STEP 2: DOCUMENTATION

In agreement with the agent in charge of running your program, you collect and bring the required documentation so that the program can continue unhindered. After the adoption of the documentation, the second installment of the program is paid in the amount of $ 400 in dinars at the middle exchange rate of the NBS on the day of payment.

The CV document is the most important document in this phase of the program, and you will receive an example of how to write a CV according to the propositions of sponsors and employers from Japan from our agent by e-mail. The agent is obliged to answer all your questions and concerns and help you fill in the CV document if you do not know how to do it yourself.

STEP 3: PREPARING FOR AN INTERVIEW WITH THE EMPLOYER

When we have finished with the necessary documentation and the creation of a CV document, we leave you to the sponsoring agency with which you have a Skype account preparation for an interview with the employer. Feel free to ask them anything that is not clear to you in order to better prepare and show up in the conversation that follows.

STEP 4: INTERVIEW WITH THE EMPLOYER

At this stage of the program you have the opportunity to meet and have a conversation with a potential future employer. Use all the knowledge you gained while preparing for this interview and again ask the employer everything you are interested in regarding that job offer and he may not have told you. Make a list of questions before the conversation so you don’t forget something.

STEP 5: PREPARATION OF VISION DOCUMENTATION

After getting the job and signing the job offer, the candidate pays the III and at the same time the last installment of the program in the amount of $ 1000. Then follows the sending of the necessary documentation to the immigration in Japan for a veto that lasts about 3 months and for the preparation of a certificate of eligibility of the candidate. When this certificate arrives in Serbia, the candidate can schedule a visit to the Japanese embassy. This process takes approximately 2 weeks and after obtaining a visa, the candidate prepares to travel. The visa is valid for two weeks before the start of work and another two weeks after the end of the student’s employment.

1. Is it allowed to do other work?

According to the provisions of this visa, the candidate can work a maximum of 40 hours per week, which means that he cannot have another job or can have overtime hours provided by the employer.

2. Can a candidate go with someone else to the program, to the same city and to the same employer?

Of course, we can try to place candidates together with the same employer, but we cannot guarantee that both candidates will get a job with the same employer, so it is best for candidates to be flexible and if one gets a job he needs to accept it and the other candidate will be placed with another employer.

3. Does the employer always offer accommodation or does the candidate sometimes have to seek accommodation from Serbia before arriving in Japan?

The employer ALWAYS offers accommodation within its work offer.

4. What kind of accommodation is it?

These are single or double rooms in the same resort where the candidate will work.

5. Who secures and pays for plane tickets?

The candidate pays for the plane ticket and general travel expenses himself, and the American Adventure Agency provides him with the ticket and arranges the flight booking.

6. Is the candidate entitled to travel after completing the working part of the program?

The candidate received a visa that is valid for another two weeks after the end of the working part of the program so that he can travel around Japan for a while before returning to his home country.

7. Do candidates have annual leave during the program?

They do not have a vacation during the season, they eventually have a day off when it is a public holiday, but even then it is very possible that the employer asks them to work and take another day off because there is usually a lot of work in that period.

8. Sponsorship agencies state that they provide the candidate with a maximum of 2 additional job interviews if he does not get a job at the first interview. What happens if the candidate does not get a job with any of these three employers?

In this case, the candidate’s program is canceled and all the money paid until then is returned to him.

9. Can the candidate choose which location to work at?

The sponsoring agency expects the candidate to accept the job they offer him unless the candidate has a very good reason why he would not accept a particular location and employer.

10. How many days before the start of the job offer can the candidate go to Japan?

The sponsoring agency recommends that the candidate come to them in Tokyo on Thursday (before the work offer, which starts on Monday), and then they can travel to the intended resort during the weekend and start work on Monday. Accommodation in Tokyo is provided and the candidate pays about $ 12 per night.

11. Can a candidate resign and leave his current employer if his job does not suit him or they do not get along well?

This is a very specific situation that the sponsoring agency has to analyze and evaluate because this type of visa is intended for only one employer and it is very difficult to change it during the program.

12. Is it possible for a candidate to go to the program next season and stay with the same employer if he wants to?

Yes, it is possible for a candidate to go to the program several times and with the same employer. In that case, the employer will probably offer another type of visa to the candidate (work visa) and increase his salary. Changing visa categories is also possible while the candidate is in Japan.

13. What does health insurance cover and what does not and is it included in the price of the program?

The cost of health insurance is NOT included in the price of the program and costs approximately $ 15 per month for people who had no income in Japan in the previous year. It covers 70% of medical expenses, medicines, treatment and hospitalization if necessary. However, only the most basic treatment options are covered. The remaining 30% must be paid by themselves, so we recommend that they have additional travel health insurance from abroad that would cover everything. Such insurance can also be taken through our agency.

14. What happens if the candidate does not get a visa?

In this case, only the amount of the first installment of $ 200 is retained and the remaining costs paid are reimbursed to the candidate.

15. Does the candidate undergo certain training at the very beginning of the program?

The training is done by the employer and is done at the very beginning of the work. The duration of the training depends on the employer and the candidate’s abilities. Training is paid.

16. Are the costs of treatment for the current COVID-19 virus covered by health insurance?

They did.
