Background and Highlights of the Event

For regional relocation and UI turn employment, resolving concerns about both "work" and "life" is essential. This event will feature not only interaction at company booths but also a program to hear the real voices of young employees who have UI turned to Wakayama, and an immigration consultation corner, delivering the "reality of Wakayama" that cannot be conveyed through internet searches alone.

1. Experience the "Reality" Unknown Online! Interaction at Individual Booths

You can hear firsthand accounts from employees working in Wakayama that will alleviate pre-relocation anxieties, such as the reality of salaries and the car-dependent lifestyle. A "Status Card" will also be provided to support efficient matching.

2. Free Consultation with Professionals on Work and Life! "Job Hunting Support & Relocation Promotion Corner"

For concerns such as "I don't know which booth to visit..." or "I'm anxious about interviews...", a special booth will be available where nationally certified career consultants will offer free consultations. Furthermore, a "Relocation Promotion Corner" will be co-located to provide consultations on relocation support systems and daily life, offering comprehensive support for your new career in Wakayama.

3. Reliable Free Support & Participation Benefits

To allow you to focus on the event, various free support services such as a "childcare space (deadline: Friday, July 31, 17:00 - advance reservation required)", "sign language interpretation", and "writing assistance" will be provided. Additionally, participants who join the stamp rally by visiting three or more company booths on the day will receive a 500 yen gift card as a benefit.
