Acquisition of talent
Our group believes, just as our predecessors have built today’s corporate group without sticking to the precedents, that it would be the source of our competitiveness to continue to value a culture of boldness and daring to take on challenges, and to respect diversity which creates new value by bringing in new ideas, and we are focusing on recruitment of new graduates as well as lateral hires (including recent graduates and career recruits). At Wacoal Corp., we plan to continue to use lateral hires for approximately 30% to 50% of the total number of career-track positions, including management candidates, global, EC and DX specialists and other personnel.
