Visit to ASEAN Human Resource Recruitment Company We visited Niconico Nori Co.
I was anxious at first. They helped me get rid of that apprehension!"
On July 8, we visited Nikoniko Nori Co.
The factory in Kyushu was chronically suffering from a shortage of human resources.
The only way to improve this problem was to consider hiring foreigners.

A factory in Kyushu was chronically suffering from a shortage of human resources.
The only way to improve this problem was to consider hiring foreigners.
Mr. Kobayashi was concerned about hiring foreigners.
Would they be able to communicate well and speak the language well?
With these concerns in mind, he decided to hire technical intern trainees.
Nico Nico Nori completely eliminated the "initial anxiety" when Mr. Taoni joined the company.
Mr. Taoni acclimated more quickly than expected.
The atmosphere was improved by the fact that senior workers in their 50's and above were very affectionate toward them.
With her original Japanese language and communication skills, she was able to get along with them quickly.
It seems that they are now able to butt in with their bosses in a good way.
She is just as active as her Japanese counterparts, providing interpretation and guidance to the technical intern trainees, translating materials, recruiting, and managing attendance.
I hear that she is very popular among the uncles because of her good looks.

The interviewer's Japanese is easy to understand, and the occasional mix of Kansai dialect proves that he/she has become familiar with the area.
There are also technical intern trainees and Vietnamese employees in Kyushu.
The atmosphere at the factory has improved and communication has deepened.
It seems that they will be the mainstay of our overseas expansion in the future.
I think the key to success is the ability to formulate a strategy that anticipates the future.
Through my visits to companies, I wonder whether they consider their human resources to be "workforce" or "labor force.
Companies that are successfully utilizing their human resources are able to assess their abilities and assign the right people to the right positions.

The image of nori is "white rice," but on their website, they also introduce recipes that go well with cheese.
When I read the president's greeting, a warm dining table came to mind, and my stomach started to rumble.
The company also offers furikake (sprinkled on rice), soups, and other products.
There is also nori for cute character decorations for bento boxes and "talking nori" with messages punched out.
They even make nori with salt and broth to go with their "onigirizushi" (rice cakes).
As one would expect from Nico Nico Nori! I thought.
Ordinary baked seaweed is not enough for "Onigirizazu".
And there is also a product called "Onigiri-ga Hassunai-zu" which is a mold for making onigirizushi.
I personally want this very much! If you have made it, you may understand,
The amount of rice in the onigiri-zushi and the shape of the rice when it is placed is very important to the taste and visual quality of the finished product!
Nowadays, there is a lot of talk about home time and having fun at home, and also the weather is going to get a little cooler from now on,
Many people will probably have picnics with their families, avoiding the crowds and bringing their own lunch boxes.
It would be nice to enjoy home-made meals such as hand-rolled sushi or go out with onigirizushi.

One thing that comes up from the companies we visit when hiring non-Japanese is that "Japanese language skills and communication skills are all you need.
"If you have Japanese language and communication skills, you can get by.
I think this is the attitude of "taking the time to nurture them".
For Japanese people, it is partly because they do not have much contact with foreigners,
They are anxious because they do not know how to interact with foreigners.
The way to treat them is no different from that of Japanese people.
We let them do what they can do, and then assess their abilities.
This was the process.
Even if you expect to be active immediately, the first year does not go well, even for Japanese.
If you are looking for immediate success, you still need to hire experienced people.
However, even if you are recruiting, you may have to wait for six months or a year....
The days go by while you are waiting.
Do you wait a year, or do you train them in a year?
Even if an experienced person comes, you don't know if he/she will be a good fit for the company.
If so, the latter is the better way to see their abilities.
Don't ask for results right off the bat, but let them start with what they can do and watch them grow,
The secret to success may be not to expect results out of the blue, but to let them start with what they can do and watch them grow.
