Japanese companies tend to focus their recruitment activities on newly graduates from universities and schools. Also, there existed a recruitment agreement which does not consent to recruiting activities if it is not within the specified period, and so therefore, companies have focused recruitment on the designated period causing recruitment on other periods to be seldom implemented.
When searching for a job, it is necessary that you know the flow of schedule. The details of job-hunting are basically the same with Japanese applicants. You look into various company materials and search for various ways to contact companies you are interested.
