I'm not sure if AJX is going to be doing any hiring for a while. We don't have enough flying right now to finish people who are currently in training.

Also as jrmyl mentioned, the contract is gone and if they ever recall (and this is a big if) it will be a very different contract and company than the one we worked for. A few of us have gotten lucky and got jobs in the US but many of our friends are still looking.
Good luck to everyone on these difficult times...

This time I really didn't think much of Covid quite frankly but it certainly was disastrous for the market in Japan.
