circus Inc. (Headquarters: Chuo-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Takashi Yabe), which operates the talent introduction platform "circusAGENT," has implemented an update to its job search function, aimed at improving agent operational efficiency and matching accuracy, in response to the increasing number of job listings.
## Background of the Update
The number of job listings on "circusAGENT" has reached 121,172 as of April 7, 2026, making it one of Japan's largest talent introduction platforms.
In recent years, against the backdrop of a "seller's market" due to chronic labor shortages in the recruitment market, job seekers' career options have become more diverse than ever, with active recruitment of inexperienced individuals and career changes across industries and occupations becoming common. Furthermore, while flexibility in work styles, such as the expansion of discretionary labor systems, has increased recently, there is also a growing number of companies returning to "office-centric" approaches, emphasizing face-to-face communication.
"circusAGENT" has always provided diverse job search criteria, and this update to the job search function was carried out to accommodate diversified work styles. By implementing a detailed filtering search function, agents can minimize the effort required for job searching and quickly propose high-quality job offers that meet the specific preferences of job seekers.
## Overview of New Features
This update adds the following three search criteria:
1. **Search for "Where you want to work" precisely | Filtering by city, ward, and ordinance-designated cities**
The search criteria have been expanded from the conventional prefectural unit to include city, ward, and ordinance-designated city units nationwide. It also supports batch selection for Tokyo's 23 wards and ordinance-designated cities, enabling quick proposals tailored to job seekers' living areas with minimal effort.
2. **Filter "Work Environment" | Search by work style**
Mainly for engineering positions, flags for "work style (in-house/client-site)"—which are a crossroads for career perspectives such as "wanting to focus on one's own product" or "wanting to hone skills in diverse environments"—have been strengthened. This helps prevent mismatches and supports introductions with high retention rates.
3. **Matching based on "When you want to work" | Specify start and end times**
It is now possible to search for jobs by specifying concrete time slots, such as "start at 10:00" or "end at 17:00." This enables smooth filtering of jobs that match the conditions for job seekers who prioritize work-life balance, such as those hoping for staggered work hours or balancing childcare/nursing care.
