"Even if we offer a job offer, candidates flow to other companies or different industries," and "The real appeal of factories is not conveyed to job seekers." In the manufacturing and construction industries, where securing talent for technical and on-site positions is becoming increasingly difficult year by year, declining job offers is a matter of survival. With the average hiring cost per person said to be around 800,000 yen, declining offers not only wastes investment but also directly leads to a disruption in future technical succession. This document unravels the "real reasons" why job seekers decline job offers using data and explains communication methods to enhance their enthusiasm for joining the company. What is particularly important in the manufacturing and construction industries is not the polished words on recruitment websites, but rather real information such as "the actual workplace atmosphere," "the character of the craftsmen," and "the pace of work." This document proposes steps to intuitively convey these aspects and alleviate concerns through the use of "video content." Additionally, we introduce a video in-house production program called "MOVIENT," which enables HR personnel to easily and cost-effectively create recruitment videos for their companies.
