The battering that the Tokyo stock market received in the last 2 weeks has caused many to wonder what the next few months are going to be like for Japan’s economy. With the globalized nature of the big corporations combined with a renewed need to connect to customers around the world, hiring in Japan is maintaning a steady pace.
Some companies are continuing to monitor the situation and see what happens before making new investments, but many are already actively seeking staff.
There have been no large-scale withdrawals from the market by a company in Japan and the general tone in the business community is to preserve business continuity while at the same time adapting to recent events.
