Instead of volume-based agency hiring, we provided boutique recruitment focused on precise matching. From the role requirements, we defined the ideal “ready-to-perform” profile: AI learning background, development fundamentals, Japanese proficiency, and fit for Kansai-area company culture and work style. Using our global talent network, we targeted candidates with AI engineering experience in India and exposure to projects for Japanese companies. The featured candidate had hands-on experience in Generative AI, LLM, RAG, and workflow automation, and had led projects for Japanese clients end-to-end, from PoC design to implementation and operations. They also supported translation and technical communication for Japanese customers, showing both technical strength and collaboration adaptability. Phinx evaluated beyond resume keywords—considering Japanese project experience, communication stability, and career direction—and successfully delivered an offer-ready candidate with strong technical skills, Japanese capability, and business adaptability.
