Four new ISOWA-bito members have come to Japan from the Philippines. “Four?” you say. “But there are five of them!” That’s right — it’s go-mei-san! (a pun in Japanese, meaning “five people” and also “thank you for counting!”) (ha-ha)
Of the four who came to Japan, three are
engineers in mechanical and electrical fields — B, C, and Y — selected from
among 15 candidates through Zuitt’s program.

After we decided to hire them, C
said, “My boyfriend, T has been already working in Japan. He graduated
from the same university and is also an engineer. Could you possibly hire him
too?” So,
just as we did with the other three, we gave him an interview and a test. The
whole team agreed: “He passes!” And so, T officially joined ISOWA — making them
a couple working together. So he was able
to help welcome the new arrivals including his girlfriend at the airport. That
makes four.
And the other one who came from the
Philippines is D. I’ve been connected with her for almost two years, and I
thought, “She would be a perfect fit for ISOWA!” So I scouted
her.
At our company-wide morning assembly, we gave a warm welcome to them.
They all introduced themselves in
Japanese, and they did such a great job! I was really impressed — you can tell
they’ve been studying hard. To show our welcome in a small way, we handed out
appointment letters in English for the first time. That, too, turned out to be
a great experience.
Along with these five, we now have six
members from the Philippines, including N, who joined us three years
earlier.

I’m sure they’ll bring fresh energy and
give ISOWA’s culture a good shake in the best way. Go for it, everyone — we’re
all cheering you on!

the world for us to work for — a place where each of us can work for the
happiness of ourselves and our loved ones." (Being polished)
