Kazuaki Kameda

1, Tell me about your background

After graduating from the university in Australia in 2006, I joined a major foreign recruitment firm in Japan. I started my career as a consultant in Finance Technology field and after working as a Manager, I successfully established the Insurance team along with managing other specialized teams such as Real Estate and Supply Chains. In 2012, I joined the launching of Talisman Corporation and started Finance Technology, Banking, and Insurance as a specialized field. At the moment, I am also closely involved in the management of Life Sciences and HR team.

2, Why did you choose recruitment as your career?

Since there are various encounters with many people through clients and job seekers, it has been such a pleasure to build a long term “win-win-win”relationship. Of course, in addition to the industry trends, I think the most attractive benefit being a part of this industry is to interact with various businesses which lead to my own development and growth.

3, What do you enjoy the most at your job?

It is because I always feel the joy of advising the best paths for each party in a cross-border job market (domestic and overseas) by meeting the recruitment needs of clients and thinking for the careers of the job seeks together. Also, it is a pleasure to grasp the current industry trends and acquire “the latest information and networks” in order to provide valuable information.

4, What is it like to work at Talisman?

I like the environment which always gives people “challenge”. Since our launch in 2012, we faced various challenges that could not be experienced in other companies. We have grown to more than 30 Consultants now with continuing to pursue the next challenge and contributing to the society.
