- Please tell us a story that was born the idea of ​​Tokyo work department.

Since I was a high school student, "field", I wanted to work to create a project from scratch in other words. But I thought what to do to get to such work, is not Waka concrete image for the job because it was still a high school student. Although I studied design proceed to somehow Department of Architecture, I was a third year of college, now I feel that "something different". Architectural design is the work to be in the predetermined frame, such as on-site and applications, but the first place I'm aware that I wanted to create a frame itself. On the other hand the time, is a renovation that was very interested in. Let reborn building, this work to propose a completely different use of Law, room to think of architects I thought that by Do interesting big. Student age is variously thought such a thing, after graduation had a job at a real estate company that is Tazusawa from upstream to the project. Work such as the development and operation of commercial facilities I was interesting, but also the born feeling that was worrying endlessly because also about third year, now go to the neighborhood of the bar on a daily basis. To them, suddenly, I was Why Consider yourself and whether a so much love this bar. Drinks and food is delicious, the interior is also nice. Although several were mentioned favorite point, decisive reason, I want to talk to meet toward the bartender who is to always shop! It it was a feeling that. I was inspired to notice it. Attractive to the arena, there is a landscape that always comes to mind is the face of the "people". Real estate and construction is a vessel of the field (project), because the work of field development that he was looking for is, or not to connect the people and the people in the vessel, and. This idea has led to the Tokyo work Department Store.

- Will went smoothly until commercialization.

I I think that different ideas and vision. But ideas come out easily with pom-pom, only a lonely, can not be still act. Thinking in an orderly sequence until the path and beyond to the realization of the idea, outlook state is we believe that vision. Idea want to connect people through the "Work" is the up to the vision, there was a thing that must be considered in various ways. Have received a strong inspiration in such is the conventional and housing information site to introduce and re-discover the real estate from a different point of view is "Tokyo R chattel". Usually, real estate LDK and location, but specs such as age is issued to the front, such as Tokyo in the R real estate, "there is a retro taste", "high ceilings", is information along close to the feeling of the people who live in emphasis you have. Taken replaced with a job offer, the information of the traditional media, it was biased to the specs, such as salaries and work location. Of course it is important, but the specific work other content, images from the eyes of the people who work in the workplace work values ​​and way of life, if Rarere convey such fun and very thing, people who read the more realistic "myself to work." I I was thinking whether not able. Also it received a strong influence from Yoshiaki Nishimura's book "make their work". This book, interviewed visit towards the various professions, that tell indifferently the state of thinking and workplace to work, what you get to thinking to yourself something to do with "their work". While the two of you thought the reference, after is the feeling that went built up a vision while moving. Was launched in Tokyo work site of the department is, it will be in August 2008.

- How did you initial reaction.

At first, listen to the story and contact from me to the company that "I think the good Do", was posted without imperative the listing fees. However, because I did not have the name recognition also in how many minutes, I case was also quite a few that are otherwise specified (laughs). Because companies that think be nice, the work is also a very, company that everyone is working to life have their own will. Tokyo is the center, but recently has been an increasing number of articles for local company. Gradually increased name recognition, request of me from before about a year from more companies now pour in. Further, the Tokyo work department is, I very often the person who read even if you do not have to look for work. Because you have to introduce such thought to human way of life and work of various professions, it's us enjoy as reading material. Therefore, in addition to reviews from me for company, many also be introduced to me companies from readers, especially local companies if the majority is the case.

- What do you have to make the content in mind that.

Through text and photos that came out from the eyes of the coverage's, and workplace atmosphere to people who read believe that I want to relive. Speaking Ppoku now, it is an image that interview who is "Avatar" of readers. In particular policy to be important, not only the best of company, negative surface also firmly write it. Sometimes, at the stage of the published document before confirmation, the "This is please do not write," but you may also be pointed out that, be better joined to understand firmly the actual situation of the company is positive in the result explain. There is little, but still if you do not convinced are not allowed the publication. Instead, it does not mean that, I there is a feeling that you are able to recruit people that satisfy a high probability. At a later adopted after a while, it is very often able to say "I did not think coming so good people." As the factors, the first place people are deeply thinking the way of life and work styles You might be said that the looking for a job through the Tokyo work department, that are joined to deepen the motivation and preparedness into the work through the content it is also there will be. Tokyo work department, the new graduates abruptly does not matter. Japan will be disadvantageous for the job surface deviates even slightly from the new graduates of the rail, but I think I often also excellent people. In Tokyo work department, I think it is you're able to successfully follow even such a person.

- Please tell us an opportunity to have started the "Tokyo work visit."

Weekdays working as breath, but does not deny the life like to take a deep breath on a holiday, I think that too good. To interact with employees to visit a variety of workplaces, to the base of the get thinking the way of life and work styles "Tokyo work visit", is intended to be in life that is continuous from the original work, there is the idea. Why, and say what would be considered to isolate the work and life, modern or would not contribute that has decreased the opportunity that is in contact with the work since I was a child. The old days You think that was often or help or the sight of parents work, there was also such as apprenticeship. However, in the present, there are many people who start thinking about the first time work in job hunting of third year university. So, not positioned quite work in my life. In Tokyo work visit, without the assumption of the job, to interact with people of employees through workplace tours and workshops, we will find a sure time to talk with everyone. And finally, rather than take as it is the words of the employees, you have to cherish that stare at "whether or-thinking felt if yourself" from its words. Do anything, I think that does not make sense to be in your stuff. For example, the often book of self-development is useless, because it becomes the mood was exhilarating just by reading. After all, it's I'm a story of others. In Tokyo work visit, but it is hard work everyone is because you have chosen a company that is working energetically, the participants as "whether there is such a way of life and way of working", are often surprised or sympathy or to scene. Through such experience, that rethink their stance on life and work, it will change up to countenance.
