### Job Information Magazine for High School Students "Yume Maga"
From "Buried Job Postings"
to Reliable Delivery and "Familiar Companies."
"Yume Maga" is a job information magazine for high school students published monthly by Yume Suta Inc. It is delivered directly to over 40 high schools, primarily in Aichi and Mie prefectures, conveying the appeal of companies—which cannot be fully expressed through traditional job postings—to high school students, career guidance teachers, and parents. Through a physical medium that is guaranteed to be picked up, it transforms companies into "familiar companies" by sharing everything from corporate information to the voices of successful employees.
▼ Background of the Social Issue
Japan's high school graduate employment system has remained largely unchanged for many years, and much of it is still a black box.
While technological innovations like AI and DX are advancing, the format of the "job postings" that high school students see has not changed significantly for about half a century.
As a result, the appeal of companies and the reality of the workplace are not adequately communicated, and this information asymmetry causes issues such as "post-employment mismatches" and "early turnover."
Furthermore, surveys by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology show that many high school students depend on "opinions of those around them" or "academic deviation scores" when choosing their career paths, with an increasing number of students saying, "I don't know what I want to do."
On the other hand, society and industrial structures are rapidly changing, entering an era where the traditional "rail-type career path" is no longer sufficient.
What is needed now is the opportunity to come into contact with the diverse ways adults live and real workplaces, allowing students to forge their futures with their own will.
By allowing high school students themselves to experience the diverse lives and jobs of adults, we aim to encourage them to think for themselves.
