61st "Daijob Career Fair" Opens Exhibitor Recruitment, Special Area for Hospitality Industry to be Established

Human Resocia Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President: Tetsuo Takahashi; hereinafter "the Company"), a comprehensive human resources service company, announced today, July 3 (Fri), that it has begun recruiting exhibiting companies for the "Daijob Career Fair," a job fair for bilingual and global talent to be held on September 4, 2026 (Fri) in Akihabara, Tokyo.

This "Daijob Career Fair" will feature a special area for the "hospitality industry (hotels, tourism, etc.)," where recruitment challenges are increasing due to the expansion of inbound demand. The event will provide opportunities for companies to connect with bilingual and global talent possessing specialized skills and management abilities in addition to language proficiency, thereby supporting their recruitment activities.

[Key Points of This Announcement]

- Recruitment of exhibiting companies for the "Daijob Career Fair" to be held on September 4, 2026 (Fri) in Akihabara, Tokyo, has commenced.

- A special area for the "hospitality industry" will be established in response to the expansion of inbound demand.

- Opportunities will be provided for companies and talent with specialized skills and management abilities, in addition to language proficiency, to meet directly.

*1) "100% of companies responded that they found candidates they wanted to hire" is based on a survey of 19 exhibiting companies at the "Daijob Career Fair" held in June 2026 (14 responses). (This is the percentage of companies that answered "1 or more" to the question, "How many job seekers were there at your booth whom you had the potential to hire?"). Please note that these results do not guarantee future hiring success.

Growing Demand for Global Talent Combining "Specialized Skills" and "Language Proficiency"

Amidst advancing globalization and inbound tourism, the roles required of bilingual professionals are shifting beyond mere interpretation and on-site support. They are increasingly moving towards positions that combine specialized skills with language proficiency, such as managers leading multinational teams, marketers responsible for overseas expansion, and IT engineers building global systems.

In the hospitality industry, including hotels and tourism, the expansion of inbound demand has created a need for talent who can handle multilingual customer service, as well as those in facility management, marketing, and human resources, who possess both language skills and practical experience. Job data on "Daijob.com" shows that approximately 60% of hospitality industry job postings are for specialized or managerial positions, with about 20% offering annual salaries of 10 million yen or more. This indicates a widening recruitment need not only for front-line service roles but also for head office departments and higher-level positions (※2).

Consequently, in the recruitment of bilingual and global talent, emphasis is placed not only on language skills but also on "specialized skills" and "management abilities." There is a growing demand for opportunities to directly assess interpersonal skills, management aptitude, and cultural fit, which cannot be fully gauged from resume data on work experience and language proficiency alone.
