Global Agent Next: Total Support for Foreign Talent in Japan

Comprehensive Support for Foreign Talent

In response to the pressing workforce demand expected to reach 5 billion hours by 2030 in Japan, Tsunagu Group Holdings has launched an innovative talent recruitment service, Global Agent Next. This service aims to provide holistic support for foreign workers from recruitment to successful integration into the workplace, thereby addressing Japan's societal challenges related to labor shortages.

With a track record of organizing over 150 recruitment events annually specifically for foreign talent and more than 12 years of management experience with international employees, Tsunagu Group possesses invaluable insights and practical know-how in facilitating foreign personnel's success in Japan. The newly launched Global Agent Next aims to streamline the complex processes surrounding hiring foreign talent by centralizing various stages of recruitment and onboarding. This integration is expected to enhance matching accuracy and eliminate fragmented information and strategies, ensuring alignment with companies’ recruitment objectives.

Key Features of Global Agent Next

1. All-Inclusive Monthly Fee Model:
The recruitment service adopts an all-inclusive monthly subscription model that integrates recruitment fees with support for visa applications and onboarding services. This approach not only reduces variable costs tied to the number of hires but also simplifies budgeting for companies.

2. Central Hub for RPO Model:
Global Agent Next consolidates communication with various recruitment agencies, sending organizations, and registration support institutions. By aggregating candidate information effectively, the service mitigates issues of duplicated efforts and inconsistent progress. The centralized communication enhances the efficiency of HR departments, significantly decreasing labor costs while optimizing candidate placements.

3. Robust Pre and Post-Hire Support:
The service is designed to assist personnel from any country, encompassing comprehensive support from visa applications to settling in Japan. By emphasizing post-hire individual support and assistance to receiving organizations, Global Agent Next aims to increase employee retention rates, ensuring that new hires do not leave shortly after joining.

This comprehensive support structure alleviates the burdens on HR teams while promoting optimal job matching and immediate operational readiness for foreign talent.
