Hi everybody,
It's been a while since I last posted here (or at least in the Learning Japanese forum), but I have a question I hope someone (or someones) here may be able to help me with.
I'm about to graduate with a BS from a university here in the US, and I'm planning to go to graduate school in Japan. Since the school years don't align nicely, I have about 10 months before I could start grad school over there (assuming I get in ^^
What I'd like to do is find a job over there that wouldn't require a long-term contract, so there'd be no problem quitting when I started school. My Japanese is good (JLPT Level 1), and I'd have a degree (in Computer Science), so the problem is really are there places that would hire me for less than a year? I don't really care what kind of job it is (I'd even work at an eikaiwa!). I've looked at a few websites suggested in this forum (like Fukuoka Now, Career Forum, and daijob.com), but I'd welcome any more suggestions of sites to look at, and also any other kind of advice no matter how vague or specific.
I'd also like to know how much easier it would be to find a short-term job if I was already in Japan.
Thanks in advance for any advice, encouragement, or just random noises!

PS The eikaiwa comment was mostly sarcasm!
