Recruitment policy for 2013
• UNIQLO will hire individuals who share the company's vision of changing the world for the better.
• UNIQLO will recruit all new people on an ongoing basis; previously, this was only done for mid-career professionals.
• All university students, regardless of current level of study, as well as so-called dainishinotsu, or 'second-generation' graduates and experienced professionals, will be able to apply to UNIQLO at any time.
• Work experience programs and business management training programs will be open to applicants prior to officially joining the company.
• All UNIQLO employees, regardless of nationality, will work and develop with other individuals at different offices and sites around the world.

Selected students who are offered jobs at UNIQLO will be invited to participate in the company's Store Manager Candidate Training Program if they wish to do so, provided they successfully complete part-time work experience in stores prior to graduating from university. (After joining the company, individuals who successfully complete this program will learn the duties of store managers and will be expected to become successful business managers who can play active, global roles).

Value of internships and part-time work
The work of a store manager is an essential part of becoming a business manager at UNIQLO, which is why the company will provide internships and/or part-time work opportunities to any student who is interested in joining the company.

UNIQLO believes that internships offer a way to train individuals so they can become effective, thoughtful store managers able to take the lead on the sales floor.

The company will provide opportunities to gain firsthand experience in running store operations, so trainees can determine whether they can commit themselves to developing as individuals, as part of what should ideally be a lifelong commitment.

In addition to a four-day internship program (including experience in the stores and at headquarters), UNIQLO will run two part-time work programs, including a short-term plan where participants will work for periods of two months, as well as a long-term program where students can participate for periods longer than three months.

This will allow individuals from as early as their first year of university to gain work experience and learn Fast Retailing as well as UNIQLO's corporate mission, vision and fundamental management principles, while still attending classes.

Furthermore, individuals who pass their interviews after successfully completing their internships or part-time work experience will be issued with 'UNIQLO passports.' This will allow them to skip to the final interview of the job application process for full-time positions.
