Customer Testimonials
Interview Times Adjusted to My Needs
I am a company employee and was in the busy season, so I couldn't take time off and was only available after 9pm. Even though it was outside normal hours, they kindly agreed to a phone consultation at 9pm. I really appreciated it.
Company Employee, Mr. T (Hiroshima Prefecture)
Extensive Application Experience
I had been denied once before and was troubled. I heard Works Hub has a 100% approval rate, so I asked for their help. They handled everything from coordinating with the police to preparing documents, and I got approved on the first try. I’ll definitely ask again if I need help in the future.
Company Employee, Mr. O (Tokyo)
Coordination with the Police
I needed to apply for opening a shop on Amazon, but couldn't get a clear answer even after asking at the police station, so I was stuck. As soon as I hired Works Hub Administrative Scrivener Office, they coordinated with the police on my behalf, and I received approval smoothly. I wish I had asked for help sooner.
Sole Proprietor, Mr. I (Tokyo)
Reasonable Pricing & Quick Response
I got quotes from five scrivener offices. Works Hub was the cheapest and the fastest to respond, so I chose them. Even though my situation was complicated, they listened carefully and responded thoroughly. I’m glad I chose Works Hub.
