Human Capital Management

SEC's strength is that all of its employees share a common understanding of real-time technology—a core aspect of the company. All team members speak the same language, use the same development methods, and share the same perspective on quality. This lets us develop high-quality computer systems. Gaining an understanding of real-time technology requires a time-intensive process of training in the fundamentals. For these reasons, SEC focuses on hiring new graduates.

We ask candidates to give research presentations so that we can identify individuals with the potential to succeed as engineers at SEC. The entire company is involved in securing human resources, with engineers from the development floor participating in the examination process. The topics of these presentations vary from research carried out at university to club activities. We check the process of how each individual finds a solution to a theme (or challenge) with no existing answer, and based on this, we judge the presenter's logical thinking skills, breadth and depth in perspective, and ability to carefully consider things. SEC's hiring policy places emphasis on the potential for growth, regardless of background. As a result, the company is home to employees with diverse expertise.

The software business is a field with ongoing technological transformation. It is essential for employees to gain a thorough understanding of software fundamentals so that they can continue to grow within this field.
SEC holds a six-month training course for new employees after they join the company. This course does not simply cover programming—it also helps employees learn the principles of how computers and programs function, thereby letting them gain knowledge about real-time technology. Once employees have gained a sound understanding of the fundamentals, it is easy to put this knowledge into practice. Learning basic technology is what helps people keep up with the rapid changes in the world of software.

Engaging in work is the basic path for engineers to grow. While it is essential for employees to enhance their own expertise through work, it is also crucial to have systematic training to gain knowledge. At SEC, we encourage employees to educate themselves and we constantly strive to expand our employee training to accommodate their desire to grow. We are also making steps to build an organization that actively learns with a positive feedback loop of growing and boosting expertise through work that sparks autonomous learning, and vice versa.
In addition, we are engaging in initiatives to nurture human resources that are valued in the open market, and we are encouraging employees to acquire official certification related to information processing. As of March 31, 2023, 95.3% of employees have a qualification for the Information-Technology Engineers Examination, and 31.5% of these employees have passed the Advanced Examination.
