Partnership Between Hiroshima Law & Business School and Gazillion
In a significant move toward career development for students, Hiroshima Law and Business School has entered into a collaboration agreement with Gazillion, a company headquartered in Chuo-ku, Tokyo. Gazillion has been providing a beta version of its platform, ABC (Academy Business Connect), designed to facilitate dialogue between companies and students. After extensive testing and feedback, the official version has been released, coinciding with this important partnership.
The core idea of this agreement is to strengthen the connection between local companies in Hiroshima and the students at Hiroshima Law and Business School. By fostering meaningful interaction, the partnership aims to enhance local employment opportunities and improve job satisfaction among graduates.
Details of the Cooperation Agreement
Through the ABC platform, local hiring companies can directly interact with students enrolled at Hiroshima Law and Business School. In traditional recruitment processes, the connection between students and companies tends to be limited to job opportunities, often lacking in-depth communication. The new agreement seeks to create early dialogue opportunities and promote mutual understanding between students and employers through information sharing and casual meetings.
Key Areas of Collaboration
The partnership will focus on several key areas, including:
1. Promotion of career education.
2. Enhancing understanding of local job markets and fostering community engagement.
3. Creating job opportunities and advancing recruitment digital transformation.
4. Promoting co-creation within the community.
5. Supporting human resource development.
6. Advancing academic research.
7. Contributing to various industry-academia collaboration activities.
Upcoming Events
To kick off this collaboration, a career discussion session for students is scheduled for October 31, from 1:00 PM to 2:30 PM, providing students with the opportunity to engage with local employers.
