Because they have yet to pass national legislation protecting the chiropractic profession, Japanese DCs are in a similar situation that U.S. DCs faced. We were fortunate enough to be able to pass chiropractic licensure state by state. The DCs in Japan must accomplish this nationally, which has proved to be an extremely difficult task.

Job Recruiting on the Internet
The results of a recent survey of online job information and employee recruitment indicates that the Internet may soon take over as the primary resource for job hunters.
The survey, conducted by the JWT Specialized Communications of Los Angeles, California, sampled 600 personnel professionals at various U.S. companies: seventy-nine percent used the Internet for job recruiting the past year; and nearly 70% of the companies that recruit on the Internet accept resumes via e-mail.
Posting an employment opportunity online is also starting to catch on. Sixty-one percent of the human resource managers surveyed say they post openings on a job-related website (such as monster.com or careerpath.com); and 14 percent post job openings on the company website.
