A new 2020 has brought a very unexpected crisis to all spheres of life including Job Market. All countries are locked down, trades are suspended, supply chain is disrupted, uncertainty is increasing and no one knows what to do or what action to take except staying at home, working remotely and waiting for a solution to this crisis.
However, LIFE did not stop and businesses are still moving. Some companies still keep looking for a right talent for their organizations. But the questions are:
- What kind of companies are they?
- What do they do?
- Why do they hire now?
The answer to 1st question is they are Foreign and Local companies in Japan who believe that a situation after a coronavirus will not the be as same as before. They can see now that all things will be digitalized and this will bring new business opportunities. For gaining or being dominant for such type of new business opportunities, they need right and strong talents who can help them realize these opportunities and drive a business successfully.
So everyone could be a curious what do they do or what is their target of area. The answer is most of these companies are now investing heavily in Software and Embedded areas. They do not need to wait until coronavirus gets a solution or supply chain is restored and production lines are back for an action. For them, everything is done online and on PC. They simply hire Engineers or Sales people and give them a remote access for realizing their business no matter which part of the world they are located and keep developing their business.
Last question is why do they hire now, because it is a very good opportunity to acquire a strong and right talent where there is less competition and where most organization is reluctant to hire or they are on hiring freeze and cost-control oriented.
