363 people x 83 companies create different ways of living and working

The executive committee chairman, Mr. Kiguchiya (2nd year, Faculty of Humanities) said, "I hope that job hunting, which is currently 'unknown', can be imagined as a 'road'." It started with a greeting.There are two major programs that will be held at the event.The main event is the “Michishirube” held in the gymnasium.At Michishirube, participating students actually visit a company's booth and have a 2-minute dialogue with the company's representative.The format is similar to the joint company briefings held during job hunting, but the content of the dialogue was significantly different from the joint theory.

First, the company explained the details of its business, followed by an introduction of two things: "what aspects of the company's employees find their work rewarding?" there were.Various questions are then asked by the students.There are questions about the company's system, as well as "things you should do when you were a student" and "criteria for choosing a company".It was refreshing to see the conversation unfolding on an equal footing, as there was no relationship of hiring/being hired by each other.

Students can participate in Michishirube three times per person, but among them, there are many students who say, "I don't know what kind of companies are there" or "I don't know what I'm interested in."Therefore, in the first and second Michishirube, we visited companies that were randomly assigned in advance and were able to have conversations in a flat state.This is also an ingenuity unique to the management members who set the theme of "Michi".On the other hand, in the third Michishirube, it is possible to have a dialogue with a company that you like. Some students chose to

Visiting students wrote down what they learned and felt from their dialogues with companies on the Michishirube worksheet they received at the reception, and evaluated their motivations and work environment. I was able to do it.In addition, there is a preliminary check column that asks what kind of perspective you want to decide on a place of employment at the moment, and it is devised so that you can compare how the criteria have changed before and after the big participation. It had been.

Another program was "Michinori" held at the online venue.Three companies and 1 students participated in Michi-nori, and had dialogues in the form of talk sessions on the following three themes.

(XNUMX) What is the way to face "responsibility" as a member of society?

(XNUMX) Advance to hospital?Got a job?Do you have a picture of yourself in the future?

(XNUMX) What is socially accepted communication?

For each theme, the content to be learned (Michi no Saki) was set in advance, and the students participated in the session that interested them.For example, in the theme of (XNUMX), the company will discuss the differences between the weight of responsibility as a student and the weight of responsibility as a member of society, and how to handle the pressure of taking responsibility. A talk was held.

Students who participated said, "I learned that you can acquire responsibility in your work by actually making mistakes at work," and "Until now, I was only thinking about running away from responsibility." However, I heard that by experiencing failures while young, you will gradually be able to face responsibility, and I came to think that it is important to take on various challenges without fear." Such impressions were heard.

Although it was a dialogue over the screen, many students were able to participate in one session, which was different from the face-to-face venue.
