HUMAN CAPITAL

Our policy on human capital

We consider that employees are essential to a company and also that employees and a company will grow together. In our hiring activity, we prioritize “meeting” candidates in person in the selection process in order to “engage individual potential” as set out in our Purpose.

We conduct more than 23,000 in-person interviews annually, including those for recruiting new graduate hires and experienced hires as well as those with our employees.


We meet face-to-face and have close dialogues with every one of those who have been working for our Group and those who will join us at our Group.


Our businesses and services cannot exist without our “people.” By engaging our employees’ potential and growing together with them, we will contribute to solving essential issues facing our customers and users.

Performance evaluation system

In October 2023, the Mynavi reformed its performance evaluation system.

In the previous evaluation system, it was difficult to measure the level of achievement against targets for each employee because it applied the same, fixed set of evaluation metrics to all employees. Meanwhile, the new evaluation system is more effective, as it has incorporated the concepts of “performance evaluation,” “basic role evaluation,” and “overall evaluation,” so that we are now able to have targets set for each employee and evaluate his or her achievement level against the targets, while also evaluating how well each employee fulfilled his or her role required according to position grade. In addition, to enable employees to pursue diverse career paths according to their role expected to play, achievements, and work styles, we have set three different courses, “general course,” “professional course,” and “specialist course.”

Our policy on human resource development

In terms of the Mynavi Group’s human resource development, our mission is to accelerate each employee’s cycle of taking on a challenge and achieving growth. Through providing training contents and learning tools, we strive to improve employees’ skills, solve organizational issues, and create cross-functional communication across our company and aim to unlock the potential of people and the organization, and make it the power to drive Mynavi toward the future.

Human resource development initiatives

At Mynavi Corporation, we provide regular onboarding training for new graduate hires every April, and on the first day of each month, for experienced hires who joins our company in the month.
New employees are assigned to our business divisions after finishing the training provided at our head office, which is led by Human Resource Division. The business divisions are also striving to improve human resource management and development to make it more relevant to their respective businesses, and some of those divisions have appointed a staff member in charge of training.

Human resource development system

Our human resource development efforts are led by Training Section, Human Resource Team, Human Resource Division of Human Resource Headquarters. At the Mynavi Group, we have established a team dedicated to human resource development not only in Human Resource Division but also in each business division, and those teams are cooperating with one another in human resource development efforts.

Our system to provide relevant training contents to enhance employees’ skills

At the Mynavi Group, we seek to provide relevant support for employees so that each of them will be able to develop high interpersonal skills, enhance the thinking ability required to tackle tasks and issues, deliver good results, and achieve growth, regardless of job type and position.


To this end, we have defined necessary portable skills and minds*, and are providing a wide range of training programs, including lecture and online training, which total about 43 kinds and more than 100 times a year. Specifically, we host lectures and workshops by inviting experts, while also giving employees information about recommended training contents for each layer in order to make it easier for them to choose programs.


In addition, to support employees’ self-development, we offer self-learning training programs, such as “GLOBIS Unlimited,” “Schoo for Business,” and the book summary service “flier,” to employees who want to step up self-development.

(*) Human Resource Division’s definitions of portable skills and minds

  • Abilities to deal with people and organizations: an ability to communicate with people and organizations and an ability to engage and influence people and organizations
  • Abilities to deal with issues: an ability to address and handle tasks and issues, an ability to think (ability to think things out), and an ability to take action (ability to carry things through)
  • Abilities to deal with oneself: an ability to control one’s own behavior and thought and an ability to keep calm

Going forward, we will make efforts to visualize results of our training programs, such as measuring the time used for training per employee.
