Over the past two years of the Korona-ka, in addition to the uncertainties in the hiring situation of companies, there has been a great impact on job hunting, such as changes in working styles.It can be said that students faced a situation in which they had no choice but to reconsider their own values, such as "what is important to live".In other words, it can be said that the key to increasing the satisfaction of one's career is to determine the course after determining the values ​​more than ever.In such an environment, the university has been expanding its support content with the motto of "more so, fine-tuned support".The results of these efforts are reflected in the high employment rate of 2% and satisfaction of 99.6%.Let's take a look at our unique support system and the latest initiatives.

　At the university, the Career Center provides one-stop services for career-related lessons and employment support.Therefore, it is characterized by the fact that it is supported based on a consistent idea without interruption from the stage when students start thinking about their career to the process of designing their own career and selecting a career.

　On top of that, one of the new lesson initiatives is the lesson subject "Introduction to KG Career," which started in 2022.This is a popular subject "Career Seminar" that has continued for more than 15 years, and since it is a group work type capacity system, it could only be offered to a limited number of students, so it is planned to open the door to more students. It is a subject.
The content is to invite prominent graduates who are active in each industry to talk about their current work from their student days in raw language. Due to the on-demand format on the Web, all applicants can take the course, and in the first year, about 7400 people took the course, which was extremely popular.

　“The fact that these subjects can be realized is largely due to the existence of more than 25 graduates. I feel that this is one of the strengths of a historic university. In the future, career education will be given to as many students as possible. I will continue to brush up so that I can take the courses of. My dream is to be able to say, "I entered because I want to receive career education in Sekigaku." "

Providing encounters with working people and companies."Do this far" even at large universities

　In 2021, in collaboration with an external partner, we opened "BiZCAFE" on the Kobe Mita Campus as a place for students and companies to meet lively."BiZ CLASS", which is held by inviting companies, is a workshop-style program in which gathered students discuss themes such as social issues and the development of new products and services, and even propose solutions.The content is similar to a corporate internship, and an environment where students can get close to real business from the first or second year will be a unique opportunity for students to draw a career vision.
In addition, students can get free drinks by bringing their own original bottles, and the use of the cafe itself leads to the SDGs' efforts to reduce the number of PET bottles.

　Of course, support for job hunting, which is the most demanded by students, is also generous.Even though it is a large-scale university, we provide detailed support so that we can respond to each student.
In the event-related area, we hold various seminars to meet the diversifying needs of students, including on-campus company seminars in which 1000 companies participate every year.It is the first time to thoroughly arrange the content and timing of the seminar according to the situation of the year.

　For individual consultations, reservation-based "individual interviews" (face-to-face / online) by professional career advisors and "anything consultation" (counter / telephone) by career center staff.In addition, we have an AI chatbot that can handle 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, such as during study abroad or at midnight.In addition, it is encouraging that there is an SR (Student Reporters) system in which fourth graders give advice to juniors.

　It seems that the high employment rate and satisfaction level continue to be achieved because there is a culture that backs up individual careers with "ALL Sekigaku", such as 4th grade job hunters, graduates who are active in society, and career centers. Isn't it?Mr. Mori answered this question.

　"Kwansei graduates have a strong love for their alma mater. I think this is evidence that the school motto" Mastery of Service "has taken root. Students will do their best with graduates who are active in society as role models. A virtuous cycle will be created in which the student will return to the university as a guest after graduation. I want to create an environment where students and graduates can learn and grow together. "

Many prominent graduates appeared in "Introduction to KG Career". The existence of more than 25 graduates is encouraging.The photo shows Miho Konishi, a former NTV reporter and newscaster.

"BiZ CAFE" opened in 2021 on the Kobe Sanda campus.While contributing to society by reducing PET bottles with my bottles, it is also a place to meet up with companies.
