Hello Precious! I just applied for the JET Programme 2022 and I love your channel, keep up the good work:) P.s. Which prefecture are you working in?

[@Precimolobye]

Hi, thanks!😊 Tokyo prefecture!

If you have a tattoo that’s easily coverable with a shirt will it still be fine?

[@Precimolobye]

Yes of course! 😀 and no one needs to know

[@dimensia6942]

@@Precimolobye so in the interview I wouldn’t need to disclose that?

@@dimensia6942 if it’s concealable, then there shouldn’t be a reason to disclose 😀

Love your vids, they're so informative. What's your current level of Japanese? How are you coping with the language barrier?

[@Precimolobye]

Thank you so much 🙏🏽💃🏽! yikes, my Japanese is really low hey 🥲, I wish I was motivated enough. The language barrier is a real thing to be honest. As for how I’m coping, Google translation is my best friend!

[@jetsetmom]

Thank you for your tips! My son made a mistake on his prefecture choices, yikes! Do you have any advice on how to remedy this? He already had his interview and waiting for result now.

[@DarrenMarais]

Very informative, I have braids, do you think I should cut it off?

[@Precimolobye]

I don’t think so. Definitely come as you are. But the biggest thing is being presentable. Appearances are held really highly here. Thanks for watching 🙏🏽💃🏽💃🏽

[@Missgrippy142]

So if ypur fresh out of college can you go on the JET program

[@Precimolobye]

Yes you can 😊

[@Precimolobye]

I have no idea what happened around the 17-minute mark 😭(Rookie mistakes) Anyway, listen to my voice guys 😂💕

[@ayandamwandla6395]

Hey babes ❤️ So I'd like to know, when it comes to the certifying process do we do it at the police station or SAQA process. I'm asking because I know with EPIK you have to get your degree verified and apostied, so I'm wondering if that's also the case with JET. Thanks in advance for your assistance. 😘

[@Precimolobye]

Hi Ayanda 😊 with JET you just need to certify your documents either at the police station or at your uni/ college. Yeah EPIK is the one with a more extensive process

[@MaganoASMR]

Hi Precious.. Do FNB debit cards work there? Cause it’s the only bank card I haves And just want to make sure.

[@Precimolobye]

Hi Emilie, if it’s an international card it might work. Please check with your bank before leaving 😀. However, sometimes they do have some problems that’s why people get cards here too

[@MaganoASMR]

@@Precimolobye thank you😊

Hey sweetie, how often do you visit home?

I haven’t yet. :)

Hi, how are you handling the earthquakes?

[@Precimolobye]

This year they haven’t been that many. But the little trembles that last over 30 seconds can be a little scary tbh. But I’m good !😊

[@paballoletshabo2763]

Hi Precious, does on do the medical check up prior the interview? Or it has to be sent with the application? Thanks

[@Precimolobye]

Yep! You should send all the required documents with the application. It’s a lot, I know!

[@roystankemp1242]

Hi, thanks for the video. I was laughing actually at the part about natural disasters. South Africa actually does get them hey. We do have very mild Earthquakes/tremors, Although (one) of our biggest issue is flooding. You get those terrible summer rain and then there is always flooding and deaths somewhere. I guess ours is just on another category. It all comes down to climate change perhaps as well.

[@Precimolobye]

Really? Which part of SA? In all my life I have never felt a tremor back home. If you mean the tremors in the mining cities, then maybe that's different😃. Thanks for watching 🤩

[@roystankemp1242]

@@Precimolobye I think you are a Witsie right? I've stayed in Johannesburg for a while, and there were Earthquakes. Then there was a (not so major) one in 2014 when I was already working. We were on the 16th floor and the building just started shaking. I think somewhere in South Africa, someone died as a result of that quake (building collapsed). I experienced about three to four Earthquakes in Johannesburg 🥺

[@roystankemp1242]

@@Precimolobye I would like to ask, I trust my application and all (I have not submitted yet, will do so soon): my doctor filled the form in in black ink, is that an issue? I know the application form should be filled in in blue ink but what about the doctors health certificate?

[@Precimolobye]

@@roystankemp1242 Hectic, wow sorry to hear that!

@@roystankemp1242 hmm, I doubt it would be too much of a problem hey. Coz you didn’t write it! Make sure your SOP is great so they can overlook anything else 🙌🏼
