Japan’s Talenty Co. launched a new head-hunting service based on technology and social referral platforms on January 22.
A social referral recruitment platform, Talenty has released the new channel to approach “Potential Job Seekers” through certified introducers (who have passed a strict examination), called Talentist. The company will support Vietnam’s recruitment market and help people change jobs.
Talenty helps obtain recommendations from certified introducers (Talentist) about their friends and acquaintances. The Talentist then browses recruiters on Talenty’s private platform and receives money by introducing friends and acquaintances that match recruiters’ requirements.
“Fifty-eight per cent of those who have full-time jobs in Vietnam have a side business,” said Mr. Kurihara Ryuichi from Talenty Co. “The proportion of people who find jobs through friends and acquaintances is 40 per cent and is the main recruitment method. I hope to meet the needs of enterprises that find it difficult to recruit high-quality employees by establishing a new recruitment platform based on social referral recruiting.”

Vietnam is recognized as an ideal destination in Southeast Asia for a variety of investment forms. The large number of business’s expanding, along with increases in newly-established enterprises, results in a fiercely competitive environment in recruiting high-quality employees.
Meanwhile, about 47 per cent of people who seek to change jobs are “Potential Job Seekers”. According to the Youth and Perspective in Vietnam report issued by Q&Me Vietnam Market Research, although companies with a need for recruitment use job listing media or employment agencies, they only reach “Active Job Seekers”, which limits their options.
Companies can therefore also reach out to “Potential Job Seekers” by using the Talenty platform. Recruitment activities using normal job listing media and employment agencies fail to approach “Potential Job Seekers” because they are not actively seeking employment.
Introducers can now earn money by introducing talented people around them, while job seekers will have a trustworthy way of being introduced to jobs by their own friends and acquaintances.
