talentbook's 'Employee Interview AI' Sees 20-Fold Growth in 16 Months

Talentbook Inc. (Headquarters: Shibuya-ku, Tokyo; Co-CEOs: Wataru Ohori/Kai Ohori), the provider of the talentbook series that creates new recruitment experiences in the AI era based on 'role models,' announced that usage of the 'Employee Interview AI' within talentbook story has grown approximately 20-fold compared to January 2025, the month following its release, through April 2026.

◾️ Case of 50 Recruiter Articles Published in One Month

To solve the issue of insufficient interview resources and know-how among HR personnel, the 'Employee Interview AI' was released in December 2024. While traditional interview and writing processes took an average of 4 to 8 hours per article, the Employee Interview AI reduces this by 8 times. Through voice input and real-time AI manuscript generation, a proofread-ready draft is completed immediately after the interview.

With adoption spreading to companies like Toyota Tsusho Corporation, JCOM Co., Ltd., and IKK Holdings Co., Ltd., monthly publication volume has grown approximately 20-fold in the 16 months since its release.

◾️ Enterprise Use Cases

Case 1: Toyota Tsusho Corporation
Toyota Tsusho emphasizes a recruitment style where recruiters directly engage with students. However, they faced the challenge of not being able to fully convey the thoughts and personalities of each recruiter to job seekers. By introducing the Employee Interview AI, they completed interviews and published articles for 50 recruiters in about one month. This allowed them to advance their recruiting activities while ensuring both quantity and quality of content for a project that would normally take several months.

Case 2: IKK Holdings Co., Ltd.
IKK Holdings promotes 'role model recruitment' to 'deliver the uniqueness of each employee to students.' They efficiently turned stories of employees with diverse careers—including planners, producers, and back-office staff—into content using the AI. They also linked the content with their large-scale 'IKK EXPO' event. They developed a unique recruitment design by sending articles of role-model employees to students in advance to build expectations, and delivering articles of all presenting employees after the event to reignite empathy.

Case 3: JCOM Co., Ltd.
JCOM Co., Ltd., which has branches nationwide, faced a 'lack of raw voices of employees to convey to students' as they intensified job-specific course hiring. Traditional interviews required dispatching photographers and interviewers, costing significant labor just for scheduling. They chose the AI for its 'ease of use.' They established a production flow that allows employees at regional branches to complete the process locally, enabling continuous distribution of interviews of diverse employees. Notably, they were able to create and publish interview articles of new graduates who joined in April 2026 within their first month.
