A few questions before I Go...

(U.S.)
Teach in Japan Questions
First when I get a job offer and if I accept that job offer Does the school provide me with a textbook that they wish the students to use?
Second, I am taking a TESOL certification class next summer. And I finish my Elementary Education BA in spring 2 013. Could I line up a job fast enough to go over to Japan that Fall? (Fall 2013) or should I wait until the following school year?
I have been planning for summer 2013 departure but if it is another school year to wait I can handle that.
Third, (Sorry!) I will be job hunting from the U.S.
How will I be contacted for an interview? Via Phone? Also, I read at Oxford Seminars(where I am getting my TESOL Certification) that it is very important to conduct your interview in English. But they also mentioned to be careful since the person you may be talking to could be an ESL them self. But I can speak Japanese...So do I speak English and not be understood? Or do I speak Japanese and not get hired because they think I cannot speak English?
Thank you so very much for your time!
