What Is the Recruitment Industry?

The recruitment industry is built on one essential purpose: connecting talent with opportunity. It enables organisations to secure the right people for their business, while guiding individuals in building meaningful and successful careers.

At its core, the industry operates through three key service models:

1. Recruitment Services
2. Job Advertising
3. Temporary Staffing

About Recruitment Services

JAC Recruitment Specialises in Recruitment Services

Recruitment services act as a bridge between individuals seeking career opportunities and organisations in need of talent. By understanding the goals and requirements of both parties, recruitment firms introduce the most suitable professionals to client organisations. Professionals receive support through job introductions and career consultations, while businesses benefit from expert guidance throughout the hiring process.

This model operates on a success-based fee structure: when an individual introduced by the recruitment firm joins the organisation, the employer pays a placement fee. In Japan, this falls under the category of “fee-charging employment placement services,” regulated by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare.

JAC Recruitment, the core brand of the JAC Group, is structured over 200 specialist teams by industry and job function. We focus on mid-to-senior level management, industry experts, and globally minded professionals. With a strong track record in multilingual and cross-border recruitment, we are recognised as a market leader in global talent solutions, delivering services across 11 countries.

Other Recruitment Business Models

・Job Advertising：A model where organisations pay to publish job listings via media and digital platforms.
　Within the JAC Group, CareerCross operates under this category.

・Temporary Staffing：A model where staffing firms dispatch registered workers to client companies and receive service fees from the employer.
　(JAC Group does not offer temporary staffing services.)

How Recruitment Services Work

Supporting Growth for Both Professionals and Companies

Recruitment firms connect professionals with organisations by accurately identifying the needs of both. Through targeted introductions, they help solve hiring challenges and enable mutual growth. Employers gain access to the right talent. Professionals discover roles that align with their goals. It’s a partnership that drives progress for both.

There are two main approaches to delivering recruitment services:

360 Consultant Model

A single consultant manages both sides of the process, understanding the hiring needs of the company while also advising professionals. This dual perspective allows for deeper insight and more precise matching.

Split Model

Separate consultants handle the employer and job-seeker sides respectively. Each specialist focuses on their area, responding to the specific needs of either the hiring organisation or the jobseeker.

JAC Recruitment Follows the 360 Consultant Model

At JAC Recruitment, we adopt the consultant model, where one consultant supports both the organisations and professionals.

By understanding the hiring needs of the company and the career goals of the professionals, our consultants deliver highly tailored introductions, resulting in greater satisfaction and trust on both sides.
