Construction work/Joined the company: April 2019

Q. Why did you choose this industry (Kinoshita Industrial Co., Ltd.)?
Before joining this company, I worked at a convenience store for over 10 years. So, I didn't know what kind of work I would do in this industry at all, but my brother is doing construction-related work, and I've always wanted to work in a similar industry, so from the beginning. But I jumped into this industry. The reason I chose this company was that it was very attractive in terms of benefits and the frequency of bonuses.
Q. Please tell us the moment when you feel satisfied and rewarding.
I'm still being taught by my seniors now, but when I feel the difference between before and after construction before and after construction, I feel a great sense of accomplishment. It makes me very happy to see how the wasteland is visibly cleaned by modifying the wasteland during the exterior construction of condominiums.
Q. Please tell us the scenes where you feel your growth and your future goals.
Since I was a completely inexperienced occupation, I was taught the work one by one from my seniors, and at the same time, I was sent to a CAD school by the company. Now, even if something sudden happens, I can deal with it myself, and gradually I am in charge of the site by myself. My future goal is to make efforts to smoothly set up and give instructions no matter what happens in the field. I also have support and allowances for acquiring qualifications, so I'm thinking of taking on the challenge.
Q. Please tell us about the people who work and the work environment.
Since I had almost no knowledge as a member of society, I was involved with many people such as craftsmen and traders, so I was taught various things such as how to write emails and how to talk to superiors. Also, although I had a license when I joined the company, I hardly drove. One of my seniors should have been very scared of my driving, but he was always dating without complaining, and I really felt the kindness of that senior.
Q. Please tell me how to refresh and spend the holidays.
The best way to refresh yourself is to sleep a lot and eat a lot of delicious food. I'm always fluttering and I don't have a chance to go to eat delicious food, so I find and eat delicious food on my holidays.。
