Title: "HR-Only Networking Event" Decided for 25th Time / Returning to Basics, a "Pure Networking Event" Focused on Participants! (May 22, 2026)

Body (first 8000 characters): "Jinji-ru-bu," known as the most practical HR networking event in Kansai, has decided to hold its May event.

It is a [very simple HR networking event] that any HR personnel can casually join.

"Let's gather only people from the XX industry and talk!"
"Let's invite current university students as guests for new graduates who are lost!"
"Let's have a grand prix to compete in recruitment pitches!"

We have tried various planning ideas over the past three years.

The event has been held 25 times over three years. More if spin-off projects are included! As our know-how and network of colleagues have grown, we tend to want to challenge new frontiers, but this time, we are going back to our origins.

HR personnel simply want to network with other HR personnel.

Responding to this strong need, we will hold a simple networking event.

▲The event date is May 22nd. We will also prepare plenty of alcohol.

What is Jinji-ru-bu?

Image: Scenes from past Jinji-ru-bu events

We define [Seriously engaging in HR] = [Jinji-ru] and have dedicated ourselves to creating a place where serious HR and recruitment professionals can gather and exchange information. Over 100 "lost HR personnel" from various companies have participated.

Past Jinji-ru-bu events featured practical and in-depth themes.

For example......

"Limited to logistics companies aiming to strengthen Z-generation recruitment"
"Limited to long-established companies with over 50 years of history"
"Limited to companies that can disclose their retention rates"
"Recruitment pitch technique competition planning"

We have narrowed down industries and challenges and implemented participatory workshops according to the theme.

It has been well received as a place to cultivate real knowledge and connections.

An HR-only networking event where everyone can always relax

Actually, the usual "Jinji-ru-bu" is a two-part event. The first part involves spreading out notes and making presentations, and the second part is a social gathering where alcohol is served, and the atmosphere changes completely before and after the toast.

Compared to other professions, HR and recruitment personnel often have fewer points of contact with other companies and fight their battles alone. There must be stimulation and ideas that arise from horizontal connections free of vested interests.

——Therefore, this Jinji-ru-bu is a return to basics.

We have prepared a "very simple HR networking event" where everyone can casually converse.

Please come with the lightness of "forget about work and drink!"
I feel that such defenselessness is just right for finding good colleagues.

▼Please come if you are!

Lonely single HR personnel who have no one to share information with
People who want to know what other companies are doing that doesn't come up on Google, and apply it to their own work
People looking for a serious place that doesn't end with just business card exchanges and polite formalities
People who are a little tired of HR work and want to take a break
Those who have been interested in Jinji-ru-bu but couldn't take the plunge due to its serious content
