Hey,
Anyone know if ASIJ is a six day a week work week? Is the International School in Yokohama?

I have never heard of a six day week for Japanese schools. I really want to land in Japan next year, but this would be a deal breaker for me, no matter how good the school is. I hope someone with firsthand experience can comment on this.
The 2 schools you mention seem to be the most competitive places to land a job.

The only school in Japan with a six day working week is Katoh Gakuen, where you will work approximately every other Saturday until lunchtime.
ASIJ and Work Week

ASIJ has a typical 5 day work week for teachers: M-F with SAT/SUN off.
However, we DO operate on a 6 Day (A-F) daily instructional teaching shedule, which may causing some confusion.
