One Career's Contribution to the Annual Public Service White Paper

On June 6, 2025, One Career, a leading company in recruitment cloud services, contributed important research data to the Annual Public Service White Paper released by the National Personnel Authority of Japan. This report highlights various aspects of personnel administration and issues faced by national public servants, along with future directives to address these challenges.

Overview of the Annual Public Service White Paper

The National Personnel Authority (NPA) publishes the Annual White Paper to report on its operational status and the current state and challenges of personnel administration for national civil servants. Recent editions have addressed recruitment challenges faced in securing talent for national public service exams (FY2021) and the potential for utilizing data and digital tools in public sector human resource management (FY2022).

Research Data Provided by One Career

This year's White Paper includes a special feature on “Branding in Public Service.” One Career analyzed review data submitted by users who registered on the ONE CAREER job portal since the 2021 graduating class. This data includes insights on job fairs, seminars, internships, and the main selection process. The analysis particularly focused on central government ministries and popular sectors among job seekers, such as IT consulting and general trading companies.

Key Findings

The findings revealed a significant trend: as candidates progress from internships to the main selection phase, both IT consulting firms and trading companies saw an increase in their ratings. Conversely, the evaluation of central government ministries declined.

Insights from User Reviews

To provide deeper context:
1. User ratings were marked on a scale of 1 to 5, evaluating experiences at different stages: post-seminars, post-internships, and post-selection phases (including ministerial visits).
2. The average ratings consisted of feedback from 5 IT consulting firms and 7 trading companies.
3. The data analyzed stemmed from 8,505 reviews submitted by users registered on ONE CAREER since 2021.

Inclusion in the White Paper

These crucial insights from One Career were published within the 2025 Annual Public Service White Paper in the following sections:

• - Part II: Strategies for Enhancing Appeal and Branding of Public Workplaces
• - Chapter 3: Promoting the Appeal of Public Service Internally and Externally
• - Section 2: Strategic Measures for Talent Acquisition
• - Column 10: Trends in Evaluations from Students

Future Use of Career Data

One Career remains committed to leveraging its extensive repository of career data to address various employment challenges faced by industries, such as the shortage of bureaucrats, support for startup talent creation, and solutions for population decline through revitalization of local economies. By doing so, One Career aims to continue contributing to vital social issues in Japan.
