People.com.cn Tokyo, July 3 (Li Muhang) under COVID-19, home office, online teaching, maintaining safe distance, and trying to choose takeaway have gradually become the "new normal" of Japanese peoples lifestyle. At the time of the most severe epidemic in Japan, the Japanese government responded to the epidemic by implementing the "Declaration of emergency", which coincided with the "graduation season" of Japanese Colleges and universities. In order not to affect the smooth graduation of graduates, many colleges and universities have adopted "cloud" graduation and small-scale ceremony to replace the traditional graduation ceremony. Although graduates cannot go to the venue in person, these new ideas have brought a lot of freshness to this years graduation ceremony in Japan.
Robots take the place of students at the graduation ceremony
It is understood that BBT University, located in Chiyoda District, Tokyo, which specializes in training global business talents, held a unique graduation ceremony through the robot "newme" developed by All Nippon Airways Holdings. Graduates remotely operated "newme" through the network to make it their own "separation", so as to realize a series of graduation ceremony processes such as receiving graduation certificate from the president and taking group photos during the epidemic. The move was the first in the world and attracted the attention of the majority of Japanese people for a time.

The graduation ceremony was attended by 103 undergraduate and graduate students. Four graduate representatives (two undergraduate representatives and two graduate representatives) directly control "newme" at home, while other students participate through online video. The "face" of "newme" is a tablet computer, which will display the student representative through the camera, and the "foot" is composed of four wheels. When the host calls the students name, the graduate representative will operate "newme" to "go" to the headmaster and "take" the graduation certificate.
The person in charge of this robot graduation ceremony, Professor Xiuwu hasenaka, global business discipline, Department of business, BBT University, said: "In novel coronavirus pneumonia prevention and treatment strategies, the introduction of virtual concepts can make the online graduation ceremony more vivid and warm. Our attempt today will be a great honor for us to provide references for all educational institutions who are struggling to organize graduation ceremonies and opening ceremonies."
Graduates suffer from the pain of canceling "internal determination"
"Internal determination" is a job-hunting stage that Japanese graduates have to go through when they go to work. After several rounds of interviews, the company will give a "internal determination" notice to a certain graduate when it decides to hire him. This kind of information about the companys internal decision to hire graduates sends a definite signal to the graduates: you dont have to find a "next home", We are sure to hire you. In the first quarter of 2020, this originally secure "internal determination" broke the inner peace of graduates.
It is understood that many Japanese enterprises hope to complete the recruitment plan before hosting the Olympic Games this year, and the "internal determination" between March and April is also higher than that in the same period last year. However, with the epidemic situation not effectively controlled, the postponement of the Olympic Games and the national implementation of the "Declaration of emergency", under a series of adverse factors, enterprises "internal" cancellation and temporary "internal" cases continue to occur. Compared with last year, the "internal rate" growth of Japanese enterprises this year is extremely slow. For example, the "internal rate" was 26.4% on April 1, 2019 and 51.1% on May 1, 2019, an increase of 24.7 percentage points in one month; Although the "internal rate" reached 34.7% on April 1 and 50.2% on May 1, it increased by only 15%0.5 percentage points. During the epidemic period, enterprises treatment of "internal determination" became increasingly vague, cautious and slow.
A student who was canceled said that the company had to cancel all the "internal" personnel decided before because of the continuous decline of turnover.
In March this year, a boy who graduated from a special school in Kumamoto City has only one week to go to work. However, at this time, he was hired. The operator of his company called a coffee shop near Jr XiongBen station and told him bluntly, "affected by the epidemic, the company may close down, so well contact you after the companys performance is stable". The sudden cancellation of the "internal decision" notice made the first volunteer report to the company. The boy was suddenly stunned.
A student who graduated from a short-term University originally "decided" to a wedding company, but then received a call from the company to cancel the "decision". "The companys businesses have been cancelled one after another, and the company cant operate in deficit. Its really unable to hire new graduates. Im very sorry." After the company informed him of the cancellation, he hung up in a hurry. "I really regret choosing them. So much effort has been wasted." The student couldnt restrain his inner emotions.
Under the epidemic situation, enterprises should select graduates in 2021 as soon as possible
At present, in the face of the recurrence of the epidemic, students graduating in 2021 will also be greatly affected. In this regard, compared with previous years, Japanese enterprises have started the recruitment of graduates in 2021 in advance, and strive to solve the employment problem of graduates as soon as possible. For example, starting this year, the March recruitment campaign, which was originally banned for third graders, has been lifted. At the same time, the "rules on induction activities" of the Japan Federation of economic organizations (hereinafter referred to as the "economic league Federation") for the June selection examination for fourth graders has been abolished. At present, although the rules are dominated by the Japanese government, the number of enterprises hoping to take this opportunity to "receive excellent students as soon as possible" in the sellers market is increasing.
Supplementary recruitment of enterprises brightens the future of job-hunting graduates
At a time when most graduates were suddenly cancelled and were at a loss, many enterprises extended a helping hand to these "single" students. "Nojima", a home appliance mass selling enterprise headquartered in Yokohama, Kanagawa County, not only normally recruited 300 employees who joined the company in April, but also made up for the graduates whose "internal determination" was cancelled. The company also shortened the recruitment process, reducing the number of interviews that usually require two to one. Yoshiichiro Daji, who is in charge of recruitment, said that recruiting new employees usually takes one month. This supplementary recruitment only takes a few days. He just wants to include those graduates who have dreams and like to challenge and work hard.
The comprehensive supermarket headquartered in Aichi county also announced a supplementary enrollment plan to set employment quotas for graduates who have to find a job again. From March 23 to 28, specialized schools, short universities, universities and graduate students can sign up, and the results can be obtained only after one to two interviews.
Takei house, chief researcher of a Japanese research institution, introduced that taking May 1 as the node, it can be found that the proportion of enterprises implementing the intern system has increased from 53.1% to 61% compared with last year.1%。 Some employment consulting experts pointed out that in 2020, graduates do encounter a special period. They called on Japanese enterprises to adjust their business ideas and try not to cancel the "internal determination" as much as possible. At the same time, they specially reminded graduates to adapt to the change of job hunting methods as soon as possible and not to put themselves in a passive situation.
