Creating a Company That Candidates Choose: Zenken's Event on June 18

Creating a Company That Candidates Choose

Zenken株式会社 is set to host an offline networking event aimed specifically at human resources professionals on June 18, 2026. The event, named マジ人事交流会 (Maji HR Networking Event), will take place in the Zenken Lounge, located on the 22nd floor of the Mori JP Tower at Azabudai Hills in Tokyo. This gathering focuses on a pressing theme in recruitment: Creating a Company That Candidates Choose.

In today’s competitive job market, maintaining communication with candidates post-offer is crucial. Candidates often feel uncertain about their decisions before they officially join a company, making effective follow-ups integral to recruitment. Zenken's event aims to provide a platform for HR professionals to discuss the challenges they face and collaborate on strategies for enhancing candidate engagement during this crucial period.

Background of the Event

Zenken has developed several innovative media platforms, including the VOiCE review site which compiles insights from current employees, and a Career Branding Media platform that showcases the true benefits and appeal of various roles within companies. Through managing these media outlets, Zenken has identified a common phenomenon: HR representatives grappling with similar challenges often lack a forum for meaningful dialogue about their experiences.

To combat this, Zenken aims to create an opportunity for HR professionals to exchange knowledge and tactics regarding talent acquisition and retention. This event will offer insights that are typically hard to come by within company walls, enabling HR attendees to learn from their peers. By fostering connections among HR professionals, Zenken hopes this event will contribute positively to their recruitment endeavors and career growth.

What to Expect at the Event

The Maji HR Networking Event will focus on addressing candidates' anxieties, exploring how to transform these feelings into confidence that they have made the right choice in joining the company. The discussions will revolve around various topics, including constructing effective support systems for candidates post-offer, engaging current employees in the onboarding process, and managing expectations to prevent mismatches after the hiring phase.

Attendees will have the opportunity to share their success stories as well as their learning experiences regarding candidate follow-up practices. This is not just another networking session; it is a strategic think-tank addressing real-life HR challenges, including tactics to prevent acceptance withdrawals and strategies to ensure new hires can thrive in their roles once they start.
