I will explain everything to you in detail during the interview!

Most of the seniors who have joined us mid-career so far have never worked at a Japanese confectionery manufacturer. We would like to help more people learn about Japanese sweets and our company, so that they can apply to our company with confidence even if they have no experience.

That's why during the interview, we will tell you the truth, including the process of joining the company, salary simulations, and even small questions that are difficult to ask the hiring manager. We also offer workplace tours for those who would like to see what the workplace atmosphere is like. I think there are things to discover that you wouldn't notice just by looking at them from the outside. Please feel free to apply.

Previous jobs of seniors

[Interview report]
How do employees work?

Because we are currently undergoing organizational reform, we can grow with a sense of speed!

Musashi Seika has built a solid position as a Japanese sweets manufacturer with one of the largest market shares in the industry. Sales have increased significantly by 125% over the past three years, and we continue to grow steadily as we continue to do business with major supermarkets. The company's goal for further growth is to nurture the next generation. In order to achieve this goal, we are in the midst of organizational reforms under a young management team. We are implementing a variety of initiatives, including creating an environment that increases motivation and income by increasing the number of new positions, proactively taking maternity and childcare leave, and reducing overtime hours by converting work to DX. There are many companies out there that advocate the feelings of their employees, and among them, this company does not just express its feelings, but also gives form to its systems and mechanisms.

[Rewarding]
The joy I feel when I see the products I created lined up on the shelves of a supermarket or convenience store, or when I hear someone say, ``I love this Japanese sweets,'' is the most rewarding thing. I can make someone happy with my work. Please help us create products that make many people happy while pursuing deliciousness, security, and safety.

[Hardness]
If you have any questions, it is important to immediately consult those around you and learn them one by one. It will be difficult for people who are the type of people who try to do things by themselves or who refrain from asking questions even if they want to. We also have seniors and colleagues, so feel free to talk to them about anything you don't understand and try to resolve it.
