Introducing a new recruitment process that respects the WILL of students

Starting with the recruitment of new graduates who will join the company in FY2025, Sumitomo Corporation will conduct a new WILL selection process in addition to the OPEN screening (*) that has been implemented in the past, in which the initial assignment is confirmed at the time of the unofficial offer.

As students' views on careers and the way they spend their time as students become more diverse, and the nature of job hunting is changing significantly, this program is introduced to respect the diverse will for careers.

Regardless of the field of study in which you majored as a student, you can enter if you have a 'WILL' to work at the place to which you are assigned.

When applying, please check the application guidelines and PR videos of all 28 organizations that will conduct the WILL selection. After that, submit an entry sheet stating your desired initial assignment and the reason, and your application will be completed. After that, we will try to match you through multiple interviews.

Even if you get an unofficial offer through the WILL selection, there is no difference in terms of treatment from the conventional OPEN selection.

Sumitomo Corporation will continue to provide new value to the Company and aim to acquire diverse human resources who will support its medium- to long-term growth.

Selection that does not guarantee the initial assignment after joining the company at the time of the job offer.
