Approach to Human Resource Development

MIXI Group believes that its employees are an important asset, and strengthening the organization by developing excellent human resources will lead to sustainable growth for the company. The Group has seen a rapid increase in the number of mid-career recruits in recent years due to the expansion of our business areas. We are strengthening our human resource development systems to help develop new recruits’ skills in a timely manner by providing not only basic training for business operations, but also systematic training, including training by job level and training with external instructors.

One-on-Ones

Since around 2007, MIXI has held one-on-one meetings with superiors and colleagues, and they have become a distinctive culture within the company. The one-on-one meetings with superiors are used as an opportunity to build a relationship of trust through discussing work progress, consultation, review and feedback, and discussion of anything the employee would like to try.

We also hold one-on-one study sessions with management-level employees to improve the quality and productivity of one-on-ones.

In-house Recruitment System (MCC: MIXI CAREER CHALLENGE)

This is an internal recruiting system that provides opportunities for employees to take on new challenges by disclosing the requirements for available positions in priority areas based on business strategies or where there is a shortage of personnel. The system is widely used as an opportunity for autonomous career development, regardless of age or job type.

Skill Development Support

We provide support in various areas for our employees’ personal growth because we believe that “supporting individual personal growth leads to business success”.

Book Support System

This is a system that supports employees when they purchase business-related books, self-improvement books, technical books, and other books that help employees improve their skills, acquire knowledge, and “lead to success”.
*Available to: Regular employees, contract employees, and specialist employees

Support for App Store & iTunes Gift Card/Google Play Card Purchases

This program is designed to promote using paid apps and premium features within apps so that our employees can be exposed to a wide range of entertainment and apply it to develop their own services. We subsidize 50% of the purchase price of “App Store & iTunes Cards” or “Google Play Gift Cards”. (There is an upper limit to the amount that can be subsidized)

Optional Training

This is an optional training system that allows employees to learn from business training courses held by outside educational institutions. Since employees can choose the courses that best meet their individual needs, they can efficiently acquire the knowledge and skills they need, and the company bears the entire cost.
