Recently, an animated short film has been making waves among Japanese netizens for the horror movie-like way it portrays the difficult and often depressing job hunting process in Japan.
The silent film opens up with a “typical” (though arguably shallow) university student, focused on mostly friends and fashion.
She joins her fellow job seekers at a bar to drown their sorrows while waiting for what seems like an eternity to hear back about getting a job offer.

She hopes that sucking up the recruiters and company management will be the golden ticket to the ultimate prize—a job offer.
