I firmly believe that the class taught regarding emails in Japanese will stay in my mind for a long time. Writing an email on a different topic every day, with appropriate forms, and delivering the message while being concise was quite challenging at the beginning. Nonetheless, through repetition, I became more and more at ease with the exercise, and it became a valuable asset to have while job hunting.
I don't think your Japanese level will change just by preparing for interviews. Of course, it is always nice to remember a few technical words and manners but to me, the most crucial is to leave a good impression. All the details you will share are already written on the resume you sent, what's key is to showcase your personality, and show your enthusiasm and desire to learn for the position you are applying for.
Japan attracts by its uniqueness meaning there are plenty of challenges to overcome. Whatever the outcome, trying, getting out of your comfort zone, and pushing yourself is worth it. You won't be alone, you will find along the way multiple people experiencing Japan as you do and will probably earn an experience to remember for life.
