JOBPAL, a Comprehensive Job Site For Dispatch Workers,
Evolves into a Career Support Platform for 400,0001 Manufacturing
Dispatch Workers
Providing free career support service, such as exploration of personal
strengths and experience to understand works, for potential job seekers
UT Group Co., Ltd. is launching a new career support service for potential job seekers through its own
comprehensive job site for dispatch workers, JOBPAL, on May 29, 2024.

UT Group, the operator of JOBPAL, has been providing various attractive work opportunities to numerous
working people in keeping with its corporate philosophy of "aiming to realize a society in which all people
who are willing to work are equally given opportunities for skill development and career formation, andare treated fairly." In the present day of growing diversification of values, job seekers have morediversified reasons than in the past for choosing a dispatched workstyle. With the aim of building a career
support platform that helps each of 400,000 manufacturing dispatch workers realize their desired
workstyle and form their desired careers, UT Group is establishing stronger services that make them feeleven more satisfied with their dispatched workstyle.
From this career support platform concept JOBPAL was born in April 2022. Currently this comprehensive
recruitment site for those who are working or will work mainly in factories and manufacturing industries isused by many people who are looking for a job. The number of members exceeds 30,0002.
JOBPAL is now offering a new career support service free of charge to potential job seekers who want tochange jobs if they can find a better job. The new service has evolved from the perspectives of "knowing
available jobs and knowing and improving oneself" and "visualizing one’s career."

The additional new service enables those who are looking for a job right now or in the near future toacquire useful information, knowledge, and experience in finding a job in manufacturing dispatch and tocontinue building a suitable career for their needs.

Key points of evolution of the career support platform

Key point 1: Four career support services: Know available jobs, and know and improve yourself

Actual and potential job seekers have desires and thoughts such as to thoroughly understand the job
before starting to work; to know their own strengths and get a job that makes use of them; to acquire thenecessary knowledge and skills to improve their level; and to be open to well-intentioned consultation
about their anxiety or worries concerning their career or job search. UT Group will respond to thesedesires and thoughts, and provide the free website service that allows the women and men to know jobs,
know themselves, and improve themselves through pressure-free learning, boosting their chances to finda better working opportunity.

Key point 2: Enhance My Page to visualize your career

While the existing function that allows users to check the information they want to know when searching
and applying for a job, such as information on the progress of their application status, will remain thesame, new functions include use of a "skill chart" that facilitates visualizing users’ strengths and features
at a glance based on the results obtained from the discovery of their strengths and strong appeal points,
and a "resume creation support function" that automatically displays a text proposal to be used for selfpromotion on their resume. Those who want to apply for a job now or in the future can manage and utilize
the information they need according to their current status (e.g., views and preferences regarding theirjob or workstyle) and purpose.

With the aim of building JOBPAL as a career support platform that continuously helps create and support
workers’ vigorous work experiences, UT Group will continue to get close to working people’s needs onworkstyle and career formation, and strengthen its services.
