Paiza to Showcase Next-Gen IT Recruitment Strategies at HRPro Forum 2026

Paiza's Participation in the HRPro New Graduate Recruitment Forum 2026

Paiza Corporation, which operates one of Japan’s largest platforms for IT learning, training, job hunting, and employment, is set to take the stage at the HRPro New Graduate Recruitment Forum 2026 on July 8, 2026. Leading the session will be Naoki Ogura, the head of Paiza Learning, alongside Moeha Ozaki from the HR and General Affairs department, both presenting on the topic of "How to Prevent Friction between AI-Native Graduates and the Workplace? Next-Generation IT Engineer Recruitment and Development Strategies."

The Shift in IT Recruitment

With the rise of generative AI, the recruitment and training of digital talent are undergoing a significant transformation. Recent trends show that workplaces are facing challenges including friction with the "AI-native generation" who are adept at using AI technologies, and the ossification of on-the-job training (OJT). This session will address these pressing issues.

It’s become increasingly difficult to assess skill levels accurately, making data-driven approaches crucial for identifying potential candidates. The speakers will leverage extensive learning data accumulated by Paiza and share real-world examples from companies that have implemented effective strategies to recruit and train the next generation of IT engineers.
