TalentX Inc. (Headquarters: Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Takashi Suzuki; Securities Code: 330A), provider of the integrated talent acquisition platform 'MyTalent Platform,' will host a seminar on May 12 (Tuesday) featuring guests from the Financial Business Group of Itochu Techno-Solutions Corporation (Headquarters: Minato-ku, Tokyo; President & CEO: Tatsushi Shingu; hereinafter 'CTC').
As competition for IT talent intensifies and personnel requirements become more sophisticated, many companies are facing the limits of traditional HR-led recruitment models. To secure top-tier talent, especially highly specialized IT professionals who support management strategies, a dramatic shift to 'Talent Acquisition'—where the field itself becomes the driver of recruitment—is essential.
However, even when 'field-led' is advocated, many companies struggle to build an ideal structure due to challenges such as a lack of recruitment expertise in the field or poor coordination between HR and business units.
In this seminar, we welcome Mr. Yamaguchi and Mr. Yuasa, lead promoters from CTC's Financial Business Group, who have achieved significant results through a business unit-led recruitment system. They will discuss:
- The background behind shifting from HR-led to field-led recruitment
- Role sharing and coordination between the HR department and HR Business Partners (HRBPs)
- Specific initiatives to generate recruitment results
They will provide a detailed look behind the scenes of their strategy and operations, explaining how they transformed the field into 'recruitment stakeholders' and realized the hiring of top talent to support business growth.
