Impact of Generative AI on the Recruitment Placement Business

「There are concerns that the use of generative AI could reduce the number of job openings in some occupations. However, because the high-income positions on which we focus are primarily roles requiring advanced expertise and decision-making, there is virtually no related impact.

To address this risk, we are focusing on recruitment services for mid- to high-income positions, where the number of hires per occupation is small and direct use of generative AI is difficult.」
