KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 22 (Bernama) -- In July, iDA Singapore (iDA’SG), the Singapore branch of World Mode Holdings (WMH), a Japanese group that provides diverse solutions to the fashion and beauty industries, began to hire retail professionals and develop their skills through a unique training programme to counter the human resource challenges facing ASEAN companies and job applicants in the retail industry.
The Retail Ambassador Program was launched to connect professional retail staff with various companies in a flexible way that meets job requirements, such as length of employment, skill set and experience as a full-time employee.
According to a statement, the target of its initial recruitment drive is 1,000 workers, though the programme is intended to be expanded based on feedback from companies and job applicants.
The rise of e-commerce in reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic and the return of foreign workers to their home countries have further exacerbated the shortage oftalent in the retail industry. For staff, this has meant being exposed to an unstable employment environment while also receiving good benefits.
iDA’SG has launched the Retail Ambassador Program to address the issues that arise from these practices. Through this initiative, iDA’SG hires staff looking forwork in the retail industry and develops their skills through a unique training programme. By simply issuing a request to iDA’SG, companies can secure the most suitable human resources for their working environment, without needing to conduct their own recruitment processes.
In Japan, iDA has served more than 1,200 clients, including luxury brands, and 280,000 registered candidates over 20 years. Many customers and job applicants are already taking advantage of this programme.
iDA’SG believes in continuous learning and skills development and has developed a number of educational courses on topics such as beauty, personal development and visual merchandising to ensure our responsiveness to the ever-changing retail industry.
These training programs develop the skills of professional retail staff, enabling them to be Retail Ambassadors who can be assets to their workplaces from day one and contribute to an improvement in customer service.
