Workport Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Shinagawa-ku, Tokyo and Hakata-ku, Fukuoka; Chairman and CEO: Takahiro Tamura) announces the full renewal of its 'Regional Job and Career Information' page on its service website. This renewal aims to reduce job seekers' anxieties regarding U/I/J-turn or local job transitions by visualizing regional job market data and enriching information about branch offices and assigned consultants.
Regional Job and Career Information Page: https://www.workport.co.jp/area/
Background and Objectives of the Renewal
In recent years, interest in regional job transitions—including U/I/J-turns—has grown due to initiatives promoting regional revitalization and diversified workstyles. Workport, with branches across all 47 prefectures of Japan, has observed increasing demand for job support in regional areas. However, challenges remain, such as difficulty in understanding the real local job market and uncertainty about whom to consult. To address this 'lack of transparency,' Workport has renewed this page to help users start their job search with confidence.
Key Renewal Features
• Visualization of Job Market Data
Displays numerical data for each prefecture, including 'Number of Job Openings (※1),' 'Effective Job-to-Applicant Ratio (※2),' and 'Average Annual Income (※1).' Users can now intuitively and accurately understand regional job market trends at any time.
(※1) Updated daily (※2) Updated monthly
• Disclosure of Branch and Consultant Information
Profiles of career concierges at each branch—including names, photos, and areas of expertise—as well as group photos are now publicly available. By making consultants 'visible,' the page fosters familiarity and reduces anxiety for first-time users.
• Messages from Branch Managers
Personal messages from regional managers and branch heads are now featured, complete with photos, offering region-specific advice and demonstrating a client-centered approach.
• Enhanced Access Information
Branch locations are now displayed on interactive maps, improving convenience for visitors planning in-person consultations.
