You have an interview coming up… in Japanese! Now what? Shadowing: Let's Speak Japanese! has the interviews edition just for times like this! This book covers a wide range of dialogues that take place during different types of interviews, allowing you to thoroughly prepare whether you are applying to study or to work, part-time or full-time.

The book is also full of practical advice, like what to watch out for during the interview and frequently used phrases. Accompanied by English, Simplified Chinese, and Korean translations, this is also an excellent companion for self-study.
