Brief Explanation

Job hunting in Japan is extremely brutal. Every year, graduates face countless numbers of exams and interviews to try to enter top-ranking companies. So, we wanted to change that brutal job hunting into something that will make the graduates have fun instead. We created a mobile system, WALKFORCE, that converts the “total walking distance” during job hunting, into “FOOD”. New graduates are forced to visit a lot of companies for job hunting. WALKFORCE will issue a meal coupon to the graduates according to the total walking distance they earn during job hunting. Graduates are having more fun during job hunting, thanks to WALKFORCE. Additionally, WALKFORCE not only offered meals, but also sent out recruiting mails from companies to those who accumulated the miles. This became a ‘mobile recruitment system’ for human resource among companies wanting to reach those graduates with motivation. As a result, coupons were all handed out before the planned promotion period. By using this system, the number of graduates applying for Hakuhodo went up 177% compared to the previous year. On top of this, there were many requests from various industries to implement the WALKFORCE system. (Ex. bank, airlines, restaurants, real estate, etc)
