Japanese Resume — Rirekisho Builder
Resume Builder — Japan

Japanese job applications use the Rirekisho (履歴書) — a standard one-page form with an ID photo, education history from high school, employment history by year/month, licences and certificates — plus the Shokumukeirekisho for detailed work history. This module drafts the content in a clean Latin-script layout you can transcribe onto the official Japanese form or adapt for gaishikei (foreign firms).

Japanese Resume (Rirekisho) — Frequently Asked Questions

Rirekisho is the standard one-page resume with personal data, education and employment history. Shokumukeirekisho is the longer work-history form used to detail each position in depth.

A professional ID photo, typically 3×4 cm, front-facing, plain background, usually in colour — attached to the designated box at the top of the Rirekisho.

For domestic Japanese companies, yes. For foreign firms (gaishikei) an English CV is common. This builder produces a working draft you can translate before transcribing to the official form.
