This sounds awful. I have terrible handwriting, and handwriting skills are entirely non-essential in my line of work. People would be tossing my resume because it's hard to read, even though it has no bearing on my ability to do the work I'm applying for.

You can get by in Japan as a foreigner no problem without ever having to hand write a resume, you just have to seek out the right companies.

I imagine it's a lot harder to avoid as a Japanese citizen.
