According to a recent survey, a slight drop in job offers to students set to graduate from universities and graduate schools in Japan next March marked a significant progress from a year earlier as concerns about the impact of the coronavirus pandemic subsided, reports
Kyodo.
Such offers dropped 1.0% to an estimated 676,400, compared to the 15.1% tumble in 2021 when firms grew cautious about hiring new graduates due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Recruit Works Institute said.
Hiroyuki Motegi, an analyst at the Tokyo-based research institute, pointed out companies are increasingly willing to hire new graduates, saying they “are prepared to some degree to cope with the third state of emergency” the government declared over the COVID-19 pandemic. “Going forward, job offers are expected to remain flat or show a gradual recovery,” Motegi said.
