table of contents
nice to meet you!
My name is Tama-chan, and I am an engineer in the System Solutions Department, graduating in 2023
I recently attended the job offer ceremony for the 2024 graduates, and when I thought about how I was standing in the same place last year, I realized how quickly time flies
This time, I will write about the group work that took place at Beyond's "Employment Offer Ceremony" held on Monday, October 2nd
In order to carry out group work at the job offer ceremony, five people, including myself, thought about and prepared from scratch, and were able to carry out the group work on the day. I hope that through this article, you will learn a little about what the job offer ceremony is like and the significance of carrying out group work
Here's a look at this year's ceremony:
1. Reasons for conducting group work at job offer ceremonies
To put it simply,
To realize our core values and let people know the atmosphere of Beyond
I think so.
Beyond places such great importance on communication that we have established communication , speed , and hospitality
Therefore, by providing an opportunity for group work at the job offer ceremony, we hope that new graduates and employees will be able to communicate with each other and get to know BEYOND a little better and get a feel for the atmosphere there

When I attended the job offer ceremony last year as a new employee, I was able to learn about the atmosphere at Beyond and the kind senior employees there are through group work, and I am looking forward to starting work next year
Also, before attending the job offer ceremony, I was worried about what kind of senior employees I would meet and whether I would fit in with the company's atmosphere, but I remember that after attending the ceremony, my worries disappeared
2. Contents of group work
During the group work, we played a consensus game

A consensus game is a game in which team members discuss a certain issue and reach a consensus.
Here is the group work that actually took place on the day
If you're interested, please give it a try!!
setting

12 items
| compass | tent | radio | clothing |
| Pharmaceuticals | smartphone | tool | Health insurance card |
| bankbook | map | fuel | generator |
3. Why did we use the consensus game in group work?
I think consensus games have something in common with work
A consensus game is a game in which teams work together to arrive at a single answer
You need to communicate and discuss as a team to come up with a single answer
I think the work
There are probably many times during meetings when you need to decide on one idea from multiple ideas, or when you need to discuss and work as a team to make a project a success
I felt that the NASA game had this kind of teamwork and decision-making aspect
Therefore, we decided to hold a consensus game in the hope that it would help participants to feel that it could be applied to their work
4. Ingenious features
This time, we added a free slot for group work
In the free section, discuss as a group and decide on one item you would like to add
In addition to choosing an item from 12 items, each group was given one free slot to choose from, which encouraged more active communication within the group
As a result, during the group work on the day, each group expressed a variety of opinions, and the session ended up running a little later than expected
There was lively communication in every group, and I thought it was a good idea to add an open slot
The above is the content of the group work at Beyond Co., Ltd.'s job offer ceremony in 2023
Thank you for reading to the end
