Operating as a small, elite team, we immerse ourselves in both the company and the candidate side, gaining a deep understanding of their respective strengths. This close collaboration ensures precise matching and prevents mismatches.

Client Testimonials

Consultation with Mr. Genma regarding insights into the Japanese market and approaches to recruitment positions has been extremely beneficial for our foreign company’s hiring in Japan. Especially since the Japanese market’s recruitment landscape diverges significantly from overseas, it’s crucial to consider all aspects locally to propose the most suitable methods to headquarters. However, since objective data on recruitment is not publicly available, starting from scratch can often lead to lower accuracy. By discussing our company’s unique attributes and strengths within the industry, as well as the types of candidates we resonate with and the most effective appeals, Mr. Genma provided very specific advice. This significantly increased the resolution of our approach to hiring for the positions we are recruiting for. We highly recommend his services, especially for companies with little experience in hiring in Japan or those unable to allocate time to recruitment.

I started our relationship with Genma san as candidate alomost 20 years ago. However, we recently have more chance to interact as I am client. His work shows always different level of dedication and we can rely on. His dedication is brought to whole process of hiring, once we had offered a candidate with other bid, Genma san supported us to persuade the candidate with various aspect and successfully the candidate joined. These proven examples shows he is one of the most trustworthy recruiter within my network.
