Mercari Co., Ltd. (Minato-ku, Tokyo) introduced a new personnel system "Mergrads" on February 2018, 2 in order to provide new graduates with an "environment where professionals can work with a high perspective." We will present a new salary evaluation system to new graduates (engineers, producers, designers) and prospective employees who will join the company after April 28, and provide support for improving their skills.

 With the introduction of the system, individual annual income focusing on individual skills and values ​​will be presented to new graduates.It is possible that the amount of starting salary will increase if you acquire powerful skills and experience during the internal regular period through activities inside and outside the university such as internships, research results at the university, and stage events.

 In addition, as a program that promotes growth as well as salary, we have introduced a support system "Mercari Tech Research" that bears the full cost of overseas business trips to experience the latest services and apps in the world.In addition, we will support programming learning and subsidize the cost of purchasing technical books and books to support skill improvement during the informal period.

 In addition, we have introduced a "Global Operation Learning System" to subsidize language study abroad expenses for learning English and Chinese.For those who wish to study Japanese, the cost of a Japanese language school will be subsidized.After joining the company, cross-cultural training will be held by Mercari's GOT team (Global Operations Team) to promote mutual understanding among members with different cultural backgrounds.

  In Japan, the salary presented to new graduates and new employees is often decided uniformly as the starting salary, and the fact is that the abilities and experience of each individual are not reflected.Even after joining the company, a seniority-based system that works along a fixed career path remains persistent.

 Through contact with various students, Mercari Co., Ltd. thinks that "there are differences in each skill and experience, and it is difficult to make an appropriate evaluation with a uniform starting salary." It is necessary to prepare the system. ”, Which led to the introduction of this new system.
