Listed below are some frequently asked questions from
some of our clients.
This should help answer any general queries you may have regarding
DISCO International's services.
 |
Which
events do you organise in Europe? |
| |
 |
In Europe we organise the London Career
Forum in June. In addition, we organise throughout the year
and in different European locations, tailor made interview
days |
 |
Why all the large events take place in London? |
| |
 |
It is in London where the largest Japanese
community in Europe lives. Many of our Japanese candidates
have acquired an international education at universities
in the UK. For qualified candidates coming from continental
Europe, we provide financial bursaries for their travel
arrangements. |
 |
What
candidates am I going to meet at your Career Forums? |
| |
 |
Japanese English
bilinguals with international degrees and cross cultural
awareness. Employers concentrate their international recruiting
with talented individuals that, otherwise, will dilute
in their local labour markets becoming less accessible after
they return to their countries of origin. |
 |
Which
forums are adequate for graduate recruitment? |
| |
 |
Approximately
60% of all attending candidates are graduates with less
than 1 year of working experience. The London Career Forum
in June is an excellent opportunity to meet and interview
candidates for international graduate recruitment schemes. |
 |
We are looking for talented young professionals? Where can
we find them in Europe? |
| |
 |
Approximately
40% of all candidates attending the London Career Forum
have a few years of experience. The Company Specific Interview
days are a tailor made event where employers may opt to
screen and interview exclusively candidates with the required
experience. |
 |
Where
do the candidates want to work? |
| |
 |
77% of candidates
are available to work anywhere. In practice, and due to
current employment trends, most of the placements offered
are in Japan. |
 |
What is the percentage of engineers? |
| |
 |
Approximately
25% of all candidates have a technical / engineering background.
