Work in Japan for Industrial Engineers?

Hi all, i'm an industrial engineering student and seeing as Japan is the most industrialized country in the world I am curious as to what are the oportunities for a foreign Industrial Engineer to find work in Japan (assume that this engineer knows japanese, english, and spanish).

I am very interested in the country and would like to live there for a few years. I'm not rich so ofcourse i'm gonna need to work while there.

Knowing Japanese is a big plus for getting a Job in Japan, and if there is a high demand for your skills, that's even better--- Actually, being self employed hurts you rather than helps you unless you are insanely rich I suppose--- a valid working visa will help you to stay in Japan longer than a few thousand dollars comming in each month.

The best bet is to do a job search for your field and see what is available, and under what situations they are hiring.

Try finding a job as a engineer at a International company in Japan.

I think this came up just recently too, and I'll add that the original poster might look for work starting where they are located with a company as you say that has a Japanese presence, who may be able to transfer a worker to Japan.
