Exploring Growth Strategies in Recruitment Business

The recruitment industry is undergoing a significant transformation, driven predominantly by a critical shortage of labor across various sectors such as healthcare, hospitality, construction, and transportation. In response to these challenges, companies are pivoting towards creating recruitment businesses to leverage their existing brands and client bases. However, many organizations find themselves struggling with how to effectively scale these new ventures without substantial budgets or resources. This is where the successful case of 'GO Job' comes into play.

Set to be discussed in an upcoming online seminar titled "Inside the Rapid Expansion of 'GO Job': Key Strategies for Business Growth and Success", the spotlight will be on the foundational leader of 'GO Job', Mr. Akiya Sugimoto, who will address the challenges faced when crossing industry lines and provide concrete strategies that led to the initiative's impressive growth post-launch in November 2021. With expansion leading to the incorporation of 'GO Job' as a separate entity in September 2025, Mr. Sugimoto’s insights are timely and invaluable for those in attendance.
