Introduction:

Leaving home to pursue a dream abroad is a journey filled with hope, courage, and new beginnings. Recently, a Filipino care worker under the Specified Skilled Worker (SSW) program made that leap—traveling directly from the Philippines to begin a new career in Sapporo, Japan. With the dedicated support of CareerFit International Service, this transition was guided every step of the way, ensuring a smooth and empowering start to life and work in a new land.

Pre-Departure Preparation: A Foundation for Success

The journey began long before the flight to Japan. CareerFit International provided full support with document processing, pre-departure orientation, and coordination with the receiving employer in Sapporo. This thorough preparation equipped the worker with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to take the first step toward a brighter future.

Flight and Travel Support

From the moment of departure in the Philippines, CareerFit ensured that the worker’s travel experience was as seamless and stress-free as possible. From travel documentation to airport assistance and in-flight guidance, every detail was managed with care. The goal: a safe and comfortable journey to Hokkaido.

Warm Welcome at New Chitose Airport

Upon arrival at New Chitose Airport, the CareerFit team welcomed the worker with open arms. This warm reception eased the nerves of arriving in a foreign country for the first time and reassured the worker that they were not alone. It was more than a greeting—it was the beginning of a support system they could rely on.

Safe Transfer and Settling in Sapporo

The worker was safely transported to their new residence in Sapporo, followed by a personal introduction to their new care facility. CareerFit remained present every step of the way—from accommodation check-in to the first meeting with the employer—ensuring a smooth and confident transition into daily life and work in Japan.

Continued Guidance and Support

Even after arrival and placement, CareerFit International continues to stay connected. With regular follow-ups, open communication, and responsive assistance, the team ensures that the worker feels supported and empowered in their new environment. This long-term approach strengthens both job satisfaction and emotional well-being.
