Willbe Inc. (Headquarters: Taito-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Ryo Emoto), a provider of recruitment support technology, has announced that its job site construction system 'jobMAKER' has commenced system integration with 'Gigabyte,' a part-time job aggregation site operated by Galois Inc. (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director & CEO: Ryosuke Asai; hereinafter 'Galois').
In 2026, the era of recruitment owned media shifts from 'construction' to 'attraction.'
The recruitment market in 2026 continues to be a fierce 'seller's market' due to the declining young population caused by the low birthrate and aging society, coupled with persistently high corporate hiring demand. In this environment, many companies are striving to break away from advertising dependency and strengthen the operation of their own recruitment websites (owned media).
However, the biggest obstacle in operating owned media is 'attraction.' Even if a company builds an attractive site to convey its appeal, cases are rapidly increasing where it gets buried among major job boards and social media, failing to reach target job seekers.
Why is 'Gigabyte' integration effective for attraction?
This integration allows job postings from company recruitment sites built with 'jobMAKER' to be published on 'Gigabyte,' which boasts overwhelming candidate attraction power.
Overwhelming reach to young people
'Gigabyte' conducts large-scale cross-platform promotions, including TV commercials featuring Tsubasa Honda, SNS advertisements (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, etc.), and JR East transportation advertisements. This enables strong attraction of young people (75% of users are under 30), a demographic difficult to reach through a company's own site alone.
13 consecutive months of No.1 access share
According to a survey by GMO Research & AI, Gigabyte has held the No.1 spot for 13 consecutive months (in 2024) in terms of monthly active users and access share among part-time job aggregation sites. By listing on a site with such overwhelming traffic, companies can instantly boost their own site's visibility.
Efficient operation realized through 'auction-based application billing'
Gigabyte employs an auction-based application billing system, allowing companies to maximize applications within a pre-set target application cost and budget. Furthermore, it is a completely performance-based model, with application costs starting from 2,500 yen.
Background of this partnership
As the importance of company recruitment websites (owned media) grows in corporate recruitment activities, the challenge lies in 'how to attract target job seekers to the site.'
This seamless integration with 'Gigabyte,' which has an overwhelming number of young users, has been realized to enable companies using 'jobMAKER' to approach job seekers more efficiently and broadly.
Overview of this partnership
This integration allows job information managed in 'jobMAKER' to be easily published on 'Gigabyte.' Customers wishing to start job integration should indicate their 'desire for Gigabyte integration.'
Automatic updates via XML feed
Job information on 'jobMAKER' will be automatically reflected on 'Gigabyte' approximately once every hour.
Centralized management of application data
Applications via 'Gigabyte' will be automatically imported into 'jobMAKER's administration screen.
Efficient operation management tool 'Qope'
Through 'Qope,' a tool equipped with AI (machine learning)-based bidding optimization functions, efficient operation tailored to target application costs is possible.
