Candidatei-me de outra forma. O processo levou 7 meses. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa JET Program (Los Angeles, CA).
Entrevista
Panel interview with one Japanese teacher, one embassy worker, and a former JET. The questions were mainly Why JET, why Japan, and what you have to offer as an American ALT. Questions about how you would represent your culture. Some were asked to do a mock lesson so it might be helpful to prepare a simple lesson just in case. There is a small portion for Japan language ability, but claim it doesn't affect acceptance into the program. They hold up a picture card and ask you to describe what's going on. After, they asked me what I did yesterday, and to describe my favorite movie in Japanese.
It was professional, simple, and what I expected. I took the time to research what sorts of questions I might be asked and prepared for them accordingly. They also asked about things from my SOP which might be consider a little difficult to think of quickly but if you wrote your SOP with passion and knew what you were trying to say, it is not difficult.

Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 2 meses. Fui entrevistado pela JET Program (Sydney) em jan. de 2020
Entrevista
Very quick 20-30 minutes interview with a panel of 3 interviewers. Generally one senior consulate staff, one junior consulate staff and one ex-JET participant. They'll take turns asking you questions, most of which you can find online but expect 1 or 2 more difficult ones that might test how you'd respond under pressure. Ends with a short section testing your knowledge of Japanese, but don't worry these are just bonus marks and Japanese language skills are not necessary
