How to answer in Japan

Start with はじめまして and finish with どうぞよろしくお願ねがいします. Use 〜と申もうします for your name, not 〜です. Keep it short: name, age, where you are from, one hobby.

⭕️ A good answer

Nice to meet you. My name is Bikash. I am twenty-five. I came from Nepal. My hobby is football. I look forward to working with you.

❌ Not enough

“I'm Bikash.” Your name alone is not an introduction. The interviewer is waiting for three or four more sentences.

Where this comes from

Every question here comes from an interview on video, from a published guide to applying and interviewing in Japan, or from teachers explaining Japanese interviews in Nepali. Where a question turns on an official rule, the official page is listed as well. These are the sources for this one.
