"Employment and Higher Education. Towards a Me Who Can Choose." New Company "Jinjib Career Co., Ltd." Launches Career Information Business. ~Towards a Comprehensive Career Support Platform for High School Students, Supporting Both Employment and Higher Education~

Jinjib Co., Ltd. (Osaka City), which supports high school students in finding employment, announced today that, effective April 1, 2026, it has acquired all shares of Jinjib Career Co., Ltd. (hereinafter "Jinjib Career"), which is responsible for career information services, from Chiel Communication Bridge Co., Ltd. (business transferred from Shoei Koho Co., Ltd.). Jinjib Group will officially commence this business today.

Through this acquisition, our company will fully enter the field of higher education support, which is the path for the majority of high school students, in addition to our existing strength in high school graduate employment support. By supporting high school students in their diverse career choices, we aim to create opportunities for them to proactively consider their future, build a "Comprehensive Career Platform," and further strive to support young people in forming their own careers.

Towards Realizing "Mismatch-Free Career Choices" for High School Students

Jinjib has, until now, specialized in supporting high school students' job-seeking activities, providing information, operating events, and conducting career education for companies, high schools, and high school students to reduce mismatches.

Currently, career guidance in high schools is generally divided into "employment" and "higher education" support services. This has led to challenges in making satisfying career choices, as high school students may lack the information they should ideally receive or choose "higher education vaguely" or "employment vaguely" without realizing their own aptitudes.

To resolve these issues and realize a society where young people can expand their possibilities and proactively shape their future, we have decided to welcome the career information business of Chiel Communication Bridge Co., Ltd. (business transferred from Shoei Koho Co., Ltd.), which has built strong relationships with high schools, universities, and vocational schools over many years, into our group.

By integrating Jinjib's "nationwide high school network" and "corporate relations" with Jinjib Career's long-cultivated "strong relationships with high schools, universities, and vocational schools," we will expand the services we offer and further solidify our relationships with educational institutions.

The Jinjib Group aims to eliminate the boundaries between career paths such as "higher education" and "employment," creating an environment where each high school student can compare and consider optimal choices based on their aptitudes and future careers.

1. Expansion of Career Education Support for Career Choices

By covering both "employment" and "higher education" paths, we will provide an environment where high school students can consider their careers more proactively and from a wider range of options.

2. Integration of Networks

We will mutually leverage the networks of high schools, universities, vocational schools, and companies held by both companies to expand information provision for high school graduate employment and higher education.

3. Accelerated Resolution of Social Issues

Social issues such as early job turnover among young people and career mismatches exist. By providing information and building connections at an earlier stage (career consideration phase), we aim for a fundamental resolution of these social issues by creating an environment where individuals can choose their own career paths.
