Companies Interested in Highly-Skilled Foreign ProfessionalsSK Intellectual Property Law Firm

We help companies obtain intellectual property rights, including patent applications and trademark registrations. Since most of the projects that we handle are related to research and technology development at companies and factories, we seek people that have specialized knowledge in the sciences with a master's or doctoral degree. Candidates with several years of experience at university laboratories or corporate R&D departments are preferred. After joining us, new hires will come to understand and learn about our business through their work. We work remotely, so training and other activities are conducted using online tools such as chat messaging and ZOOM. For language ability, we require English TOEIC 800 points or higher, Chinese and Korean native level, and Japanese N1 level. Speaking ability is not required, as the job mainly requires the ability to read emails and literature. After joining our company, we encourage new hires to obtain Japanese patent attorney qualifications, as well as patent attorney qualifications in China, Korea, and Taiwan, etc. We subsidize the cost of obtaining qualifications up to 200,000 yen, and we fully compensate new hires when they succeed. We also subsidize half the cost of taking the "EIKEN" English proficiency test, TOEIC, and the Information Technology Engineers Examination. Depending on ability, an annual income of 10 million yen or more is possible.
