    I was glad to have Mr. Kafung Chan helped me out through the entire hiring process. It was the first time I had switched jobs with a help of a recruiter but the transition went smoothly thanks to him. I would also like to thank Haruka Cho san, who initially I approached me, as she had done a great job hearing what kind of role/corporate culture I was looking for and handing me over to Kafung swiftly.

    AXA

    As this was my first time to work for a foreign company, I was worried at first during the selection process and at the time of the offer, due to the differences from Japanese companies.

    Mr. Kafung Chan supported me, and I am very grateful for the appropriate advice and communication with the client, which made the process go smoothly. We also had an irregular situation where the person in charge was changed in the middle of the project, but he handled it very smoothly and we were very satisfied overall.

    Thanks to Specialized Group, I was able to complete the hiring process safely. It was a really big help.

    They are faster and were able to understand our needs better than other recruiters. By introducing perfect candidates, we were able to proceed smoothly to the final selection. I had a little hard work, but I was encouraged by the situation. I think that this success would not have been possible without Kafung. In the future, our recruitment will increase across various positions, I would like Kafung to be in charge again. I look forward to working with Kafung and Specialized Group.

    I am delighted to know Kafung Chan, who gave me much support during my job search. Unlike some agents who simply provide info. already known, send resumes, and arrange meetings like robots. Kafung provided previous insight, market dynamics, tried to know me in detail and brought the opportunities to me by strongly recommending me to my dream companies. In addition, Specialized Group seems to have an excellent reputation in the financial industry (I found this when communicating with the companies). This is also a plus for the candidates. I would be happy to recommend Kafung, and Specialized Group to my friends.
