Precious Partners Launches “HR Funnel,” a Service Brand for Designing Recruitment Backward from Post-Hire Performance and Retention

Precious Partners, Inc., a recruitment consulting company headquartered in Shinjuku, Tokyo and led by President and CEO Seiji Takasaki, announced the full-scale rollout of “HR Funnel,” a service brand that systematizes its existing HR consulting services and designs recruitment activities backward from post-hire performance and retention. In recent years, the recruitment market has become more complex due to challenges in building candidate pools and an increase in early turnover. Companies are now required to design recruitment not merely to secure hiring numbers, but with a view toward how employees will perform after joining. Precious Partners has provided HR consulting services based on multiple factors such as corporate philosophy, vision, and culture, supporting companies in hiring people who can stay and thrive. Drawing on its accumulated support experience and expertise, the company has now structured these services under the “HR Funnel” brand, which treats recruitment as a funnel and supports design, execution, and improvement end to end. “HR Funnel” sets the goal of recruitment as post-hire performance and retention. It supports the design of target candidate profiles, improvement of selection processes, use of recruitment data, and hands-on operational support. The service aims to evolve corporate recruitment into a reproducible design and help realize a world without employment mismatches. Main support areas of HR Funnel include: 1. HR Funnel Design: redesigning recruitment from its structure To deepen candidates’ understanding and empathy, recruitment is treated not simply as a selection process but as a continuous process that looks ahead to post-hire performance and retention. The entire recruitment structure is rebuilt backward from that goal. By designing personas that go beyond employment conditions and include values and career orientation, the service also helps prevent mismatches after joining. 2. Using “recruitment assets” to turn both successes and failures into future improvements All recruitment data, including applications, interviews, declined offers, and hires, is accumulated and analyzed as “recruitment assets” and used in the next recruitment design. Based on performance data such as where conversion rates drop and which people go on to succeed, companies can build evidence-based recruitment strategies rather than relying on intuition. 3. Hands-on operational support by experienced HR professionals Staff with HR experience accompany companies throughout the full process from design to execution and improvement. Support goes beyond strategy planning to include scout outreach, job posting improvements, briefing session and interview design, and optimization of selection operations, helping change recruitment activities at the practical level. For inquiries about the service, interested parties are asked to contact the company through its official inquiry channel. A representative will follow up.
