What time scale is typical for the evaluation of applications for an assistant professorship in Japan?

Like most other places, several months. If it's been over four months side you've heard from then, a note asking the status wouldn't be inappropriate. – RoboKaren Jul 22 '14 at 22:22

It depends on the position, but couple of month is a reasonable scale. If you go through the first round (your resume is picked, which itself easily a month), you are contacted for an interview generally at least a month before the interview. However I have seen cases when it took months just to appoint an interview.
Note that many assistant professors are getting jobs by internal promotions and not through public advertisement.
