Background

About Alvin Chen

Born and raised in the vibrant, multicultural environment of New York City, I earned my BBA in International Marketing from Baruch College (CUNY). As part of my academic journey, I spent a year abroad at Meiji University in Tokyo, where I studied international business and deepened my understanding of Japanese culture and global markets. After graduation, I launched my career in Japan, combining my marketing expertise and language skills. Since then, I’ve built a diverse background across industries including education, accounting, consulting, and advertising sales. Currently, I’m part of the team at Gplusmedia, a leading digital media company in Japan that operates platforms like GaijinPot, JapanToday, and RealEstateJapan. My focus is on GaijinPot Jobs, a trusted job board that helps companies across Japan connect with international talent. We support organizations of all sizes—from startups to global corporations—in reaching diverse, qualified candidates. If you're looking to hire in Japan or want to promote job opportunities to a global audience, I’d love to connect. Let’s explore how we can work together to achieve your hiring goals in Japan.
