table of contents
Hello, this is Sakashita from Beyond!
The time has come for new graduate recruitment
I'm sure there are still students out there who are working hard on their job hunting
Exciting interviews, sparkling company information sessions...yes, job hunting is a major event!
However, at this time when you are evaluating companies, we in the human resources department are also making various efforts to find the perfect workplace for students
This time, I would like to share some of the points I look at as a human resources professional
What HR is looking at
Discovering your true potential
Many students do not yet have work experience, so it is difficult to judge them based on the "experience" listed on their resume
That's why human resources departments focus on "potential."
We look at the challenges you faced as a student, how many new challenges you took on, and your potential for future growth!
Flexibility and a willingness to learn
The world is changing rapidly. With new technologies and ideas constantly emerging, the ability to keep learning is extremely important!
People who enjoy change can thrive in any situation
In order to find candidates who possess these qualities, our HR team asks questions from various angles during interviews!
Team play
You don't have to work alone. The key is how you work together as a team!
When recruiting new graduates, we place emphasis not only on individual skills but also on team player qualities
We also look for people with strong collaborative and communication skills, looking at how they can work with others and work towards goals together
Alignment of values
Each company has its own culture, so we place importance on people who fit into that culture
Therefore, we not only look at the applicant's motivation for applying and self-promotion, but also carefully consider what values they have and the type of environment in which they can demonstrate their abilities
Finding a place where everyone can work enthusiastically will produce the best results for everyone!
That's why during interviews we focus on determining how candidates' values fit with our company culture
Self-expression and honesty
Interviews are always nerve-wracking!
But the most important thing is to be yourself
As the interviewer, if you express your true self honestly, rather than putting on a fake image, something will come across to you, no matter how nervous you are!
summary
When recruiting new graduates, we place more importance on future potential
That's why what you want to do in the future is more important than experience
I would be happy if you could clearly convey these aspects during the interview!
I think job hunting is a big challenge for everyone
We in the human resources department care about each individual and want to ensure that you work at a company that suits you and allows you to be yourself!
I hope this blog will be of some help to you
Stay positive and forge a path that you can be confident in!
