Graduation next spring High school student recruitment test postponed for about a month New Corona June 10 20:40
Regarding the recruitment examination for high school students who will graduate next spring, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology have firmly established a policy of delaying the ban in September every year for about a month. This means that the recruitment test has been postponed for the first time because the students are not prepared due to the new coronavirus.
The recruitment schedule for high school students graduating next spring was to begin accepting job offers at Hello Work this month, submit job offers directly to the school from July, and vacate employment examinations and informal notices from September 16 .
However, there was a voice from the school site that they wanted to delay the schedule because they were not prepared because the students could not provide guidance on their careers or visit the workplace due to the suspension of school due to the spread of the virus.
In response to this, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare and the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology have decided to delay the start of the recruitment test scheduled for September by about a month.
According to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, the ratio of job offers to high school students, which indicates the number of jobs per student, has more than doubled in recent years due to a labor shortage, but this is due to the spread of virus infection. The acceptance of job openings that started this month is also somewhat slower than usual.
Since it is the first time for job hunting to be postponed, the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare will officially determine and announce the schedule on the 11th.
