Work to propose products that meet customer's challenges,
Its breadth and depth are the biggest attraction of Kansai Wire Netting.
Q1. Please tell us the difference between your current job and what you thought about when you joined the company.
- K.I.

I do sales activities at the Fukuoka branch every day. Our sales often manufacture and sell custom-made products according to customer's issues rather than selling ready-made products. We consult with our boss about the contents of customer consultation, consider solutions together, and make proposals that satisfy our customers. The biggest difference from what I originally thought was is that it is necessary to propose products that meet the customer's needs, so there are more things you need to learn than you imagine. Now, I'm still in a position to be honest that I don't know what I don't know, so first of all, I'm gradually expanding the range of things I can do on my own, by repeating myself, thinking about solutions while consulting with my boss, getting advice.

As a sales assistant, I support the operations of sales professionals such as K.I., I manage sales of the sales in charge, place orders, and prepare related documents. When I started my work, I noticed that sales assistants were only working with instructions from sales, but in fact sales often consulted with assistants about product characteristics and delivery dates, etc. There are so many cases, and assistants need more knowledge and experience.

I belong to the Osaka Head Office, and I am currently in charge of accounting work, input to accounting software and payment procedures. I heard from my seniors that the job of the Management and Supervisory Department was wide enough to say in a word, but I was very surprised that it was really wider than I imagined. Like Mr. H.Y., I still have only a small part of my work, but I would like to do my best from what I can to gradually expand the scope of my work.
Q2. Please tell me about your motivation for joining the company.
- K.I.
-
I knew Kansai Wire Netting while looking for a company with a desire to be a sales job, and I thought that by engaging with companies in a variety of industries, I would always be able to continue working with a fresh feeling even after joining the company, so I aspired. I'm from Fukuoka, and it was hard to come to Osaka for selection, but I had a stronger desire to join the company than that, so it didn't hurt me.
- H.Y.
-
I was looking for a company as a clerk, and I was interested in the fact that I was dealing with wire mesh products that had no contact so far, so I wanted to participate in the briefing. However, unfortunately, I couldn't apply because it was full and there was no plan afterwards, so I gave up once, but I really wanted to participate, and when I called and asked, I accepted it happily . I felt that it was a company that puts first on job-hunting students, such as by casually calling out and frequently contacting them during subsequent selections, so here I decided to join the company because I thought I could do my best as a member of society.
- S.N.
-
I was the same as H.Y., and the casual communication between employees who were seen during the selection process and the response at interviews made me the decisive factor that I thought I could do my best with these people.
Gain more experience, deepen your knowledge,
Eventually, I want to grow into an employee that anyone can rely on.
Q3. Have you changed your mindset and attitude to work on things since you joined the company?
- K.I.
-
In the past, I was rather not good at taking action from myself, but after joining the company, I started again saying, "It's natural that newcomers don't know," and became able to ask questions from myself more and more. Also, even if you ask questions, seniors will answer carefully, so I think that is one of the reasons why I was able to become active.
- S.N.
-
The way you think about money has changed the most. When I was a student, I took classes and paid for club activities, but when I became a member of society, I still have to learn and study, but I still receive money and salary. I am keenly aware of the weight of responsibility and the magnitude of expectations, and I want to polish myself so that I can do a job that matches the money I have received.
- H.Y.
-
My lifestyle has changed since I was a student. I still get up early in the morning and commute to work, work until night and return home, I repeat such days, that's all I can do, so I can finally understand the wonderfulness of my parents who have been doing it for decades as a member of society.
Q4. Tell us about your dreams and goals for the future.
- H.Y.
-
First of all, my goal is to increase the number of jobs I can do alone. I am happy if I can do what I couldn't do, and I want to work on my daily work without forgetting my feelings of growing so that I can be an assistant who can leave my work with confidence from seniors and sales.
- S.N.
-
My goal is to be able to do what I have been taught so far by myself first, and to expand the scope of what I can do. Now I can only see my work on a single basis, but by expanding the scope, I would like to grasp and understand each connection, the whole picture, and improve the quality of my work.
- K.I.
-
Without forgetting the aggressiveness I mentioned earlier, I would like to try various things, increase my experience, and acquire a wide range of product knowledge. I think there may be mistakes, but I want to continue challenging without being afraid. And eventually, I want to be able to get my own unique features, weapons, and say, "Kansai Wire Netting has K.I."
