UT Group Co. Ltd. is launching a new career support service for potential job seekers through its own comprehensive job site for dispatch workers, JOBPAL, on May 29, 2024. UT Group, the operator of JOBPAL, has been providing various attractive work opportunities to numerous working people in keeping with its corporate philosophy of "aiming to realize a society in which all people who are willing to work are equally given opportunities for skill development and career formation, and are treated fairly." In the present day of growing diversification of values, job seekers have more diversified reasons than in the past for choosing a dispatched workstyle.

With the aim of building a career support platform that helps each of 400,000 manufacturing dispatch workers realize their desired workstyle and form their desired careers, UT Group is establishing stronger services that make them feel even more satisfied with their dispatched workstyle. From this career support platform concept JOBPAL was born in April 2022. Currently this comprehensive recruitment site for those who are working or will work mainly in factories and manufacturing industries is used by many people who are looking for a job.

The number of members exceeds 30,0002. JOBPAL is now offering a new career support service free of charge to potential job seekers who want to change jobs if they can find a better job. The new service has evolved from the perspectives of "knowing available jobs and knowing and improving oneself" and "visualizing one's career." The additional new service enables those who are looking for a job right now or in the near future to acquire useful information, knowledge, and experience in finding a job in manufacturing dispatch and to continue building a suitable career for their needs.

Actual and potential job seekers have desires and thoughts such as to thoroughly understand the job before starting to work; to know their own strengths and get a job that makes use of them; to acquire the necessary knowledge and skills to improve their level; and to be open to well-intentioned consultation about their anxiety or worries concerning their career or job search. UT Group will respond to these desires and thoughts, and provide the free website service that allows the women and men to know jobs, know themselves, and improve themselves through pressure-free learning, boosting their chances to find a better working opportunity. While the existing function that allows users to check the information they want to know when searching and applying for a job, such as information on the progress of their application status, will remain the same, new functions include use of a "skill chart" that facilitates visualizing users' strengths and features at a glance based on the results obtained from the discovery of their strengths and strong appeal points, and a "resume creation support function" that automatically displays a text proposal to be used for self- promotion on their resume.

Those who want to apply for a job now or in the future can manage and utilize the information they need according to their current status (e.g., views and preferences regarding their job or workstyle) and purpose. With the aim of building JOBPAL as a career support platform that continuously helps create and support workers' vigorous work experiences, UT Group will continue to get close to working people's needs on workstyle and career formation, and strengthen its services.
