Company introduction

Company Index

About the following company introductions
This guidebook was designed based on the concept, "Company information booklet made from the readers point of view". We conducted surveys to various people such as foreign exchange students who study in Japanese universities, students who enroll in universities in Nara prefecture, and career center staff in universities. In addition, we asked many people what kind of information they would like to know about companies when preparing the manuscript and decided to publish the information with the most needs.
