This article introduces recently IPO-listed companies in Japan while highlighting key challenges, business opportunities, industry trends, and unique business models in the Japanese market.
JINJIB, headquartered in Osaka, Japan, specializes in supporting the recruitment of high school graduates through a suite of career-related services under the “Job Draft” brand. With a mission to “Increase the Dreams of Those Living in the Future,” the company is committed to addressing labor shortages among small and mid-sized enterprises by connecting them with young talent and enhancing career education for youth.
In Japan’s high school graduate job market—where strict recruiting rules often limit transparency and opportunities—JINJIB provides end-to-end support through digital job platforms, large-scale career events, employer branding tools, and post-hire training services. Its offerings span both hiring solutions (e.g., Job Draft Navi, Job Draft Fes) and education programs (e.g., Job Draft Career), aiming to foster better job matches and longer employee retention.
In FY2024, JINJIB achieved record-high revenue of ¥2.08 billion and net income of ¥141 million, driven by strong demand for hiring support services, regional expansion, and increased use of digital solutions in schools. The company also made a successful debut on the Tokyo Stock Exchange Growth Market in March 2024, significantly strengthening its capital base.
Looking ahead to FY2025, JINJIB plans to expand its geographic reach, increase its salesforce, and invest in marketing and digital platform upgrades. With a focus on both first-time job seekers and “second new grads” (young working professionals without a university degree), the company aims to become the leading partner for youth employment and career development across Japan.
