The process leading up to the implementation of an open company

The website lists the details and details of companies participating in Open Company events. Please select the company you would like to host your Open Company with.

[STEP 2] Arrange a Date
The office will coordinate a date within the event period with the target company. We will confirm your schedule and the company’s schedule to determine a date that is as convenient as possible. Once the date is decided, the office will provide you with necessary information, such as important company notes and what to bring, so you can prepare for the day.

[STEP 3] Join an Open Company
Participate in an Open Company to see the actual workplace and talk to employees to get a sense of what it will be like after joining the company and prepare for your job search. Also, staff from the office will be present on the day of the Open Company, so you can participate with peace of mind.
