I am a man in my early 30s currently working in Japan.
I have always wanted to work in the U.S. and am considering taking a trainee job on a J1 visa to gain experience.

This program is called the American version of the work-holiday, but what is it really like?
Actually, I had planned to travel to the U.S. in the past but had to give it up because of corona. Since I am in my 30s, I wonder if it would be worth it to go if I could gain some experience, but I am wondering if it would be too subtle as I am a trainee and would not be appreciated much upon my return.

Agents have a strong business component, so they give good advice, but what is the actual situation?
By the way, my current job is IT-related, but it is not a technical job like a programmer.

If any of you have experience with this, I would like to know more about it. Best regards.

Even if you pay the same level of salary as an American,
you still have to pay Social Security and Medicare taxes.

I think my high school study abroad was on a J1 visa. College was F1.

After I started working, there was a J1 visa holder in my company, but he was doing really trivial work. He was doing really trivial work, like filing paperwork that anyone could have done.
It was a black company and it was the company's fault, but he didn't seem to have any motivation or ambition, so it was understandable.

The third person above is amazing, it must have been very hard to make it on a J1 visa, the J1 visa person at my company was lamenting the gap with the H1 visa.

If you can't live without a car, you don't need a car
If you live near a big street, the bus service is good.
