The American Chamber of Commerce in Japan said Friday it has launched a Japanese-language version of its online job posting and resume service.

The service, Employment Central, is designed to help companies secure top-level professional staff and assist job seekers in landing Japan-based positions at foreign and Japanese employers.

The Japanese version has been added in response to numerous requests from employers since the original site was launched in February, the ACCJ said.

The chamber expects the new version to "provide more opportunities for employers eagerly seeking bilingual Japanese professionals and job seekers to meet."
