The Claire Human Resource Development Association (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Yasuhiro Sakai) has released a video for companies struggling with labor shortages, explaining the unpopular phrases in job advertisements that drive away applicants and tips for writing more effective postings. Additionally, individual interview sessions for members of the media will be held on Tuesday, June 2, 2026.
Amidst the intensifying labor shortage, more companies are finding it difficult to attract applicants even when posting on public job boards like Hello Work. In fact, abstract or emotional expressions such as 'at-home workplace' or 'inexperienced welcome'—often used by companies with good intentions—are actually reasons why today's pragmatic job seekers (especially youth) avoid certain companies. Vague descriptions in the salary field, such as 'According to Company Policy' or '200,000 to 400,000 yen,' are also negative factors. This seminar video explains techniques for converting these abstract descriptions into clear 'selling points' that provide transparency, such as specific age demographics (e.g., 'Three in their 20s, five in their 30s') or explicit systems like 'Mentorship program for the first 3 months.'

FAQ
求人票で応募者が敬遠する「不人気ワード」の具体例は何ですか？
「アットホームな職場」や「未経験歓迎」といった抽象的・精神的な表現、および給与欄の「当社規定」や「20万～40万」といった不明確な記載が挙げられます。
なぜ「アットホームな職場」といった表現がマイナスに働くのですか？
現代の求職者（特に若者）は現実的な情報を求めており、具体的な仕事内容や労働条件が見えない抽象的な表現は不信感や不安を抱かせる原因となるためです。
抽象的な表現をどのように改善すれば良いですか？
「20代3名、30代5名」といった具体的な年代構成や、「入社後3か月は指導員制度あり」といった具体的で中身の見える「ウリ」に変換することが有効です。
