They will give you a call and invite you to a recruitment day. This took up a whole day with a presentation about ECC followed by a grammar test and demo lessons. The recruiters were kind and answered any questions we had about the company, the job and moving to Japan. I enjoyed the experience but it was a long and tiring day.

It's a long 8 hour in-person recruitment session with other candidates in some office in Toronto. It's mostly a learning session about the job and living in Japan. Afterwards, there is a grammar test and a teaching demo. You are given some lesson plan and you basically have to teach the grammar point to the other candidates (roleplaying as students) without using other English words except the ones in the lesson plan. Finally, there is a 1-on-1 interview with the recruiter. The recruiter at the session doesn't decide whether or not you get the job. Your file gets sent to some recruitment office in Japan and ultimately they decide who gets the job. The reality is ECC is mostly looking for white foreigners who can give the Japanese learners in Japan the "foreigner experience." So don't bother making the trek to the recruitment session unless you are not white. Even if you've spoken English your whole life and nail the teaching demo, it's pointless if the recruiters in Japan think you will scare away the Japanese students with the way you look.
