A lot of japanese companies tend to consider software as not being as important as hardware... It's even more prestigious in Japan to study electronic engineeri

  Based on my limited experiences of interning at a Japanese software company, they don't have very good training or expectation of software people. At the company I worked for the vast majority of developers they hired had little or no previous programming experience. The selection criteria was mostly based on how well the candidates performed on an entrance examination that consisted primarily of math and science questions. The company then spent the first few years of the employees' life there training them how to develop software. Based on what other people told me this kind of thing is pretty common practice.
