Job description

At Pasona HR Malaysia, we believe recruitment is more than filling vacancies—it's about changing lives.

As part of one of Japan's leading HR and recruitment groups, we've been helping Japanese and multinational companies in Malaysia hire exceptional talent since 2014. Guided by our corporate philosophy of "Solving Society's Problems," we connect great people with meaningful careers while helping businesses grow.

We're looking for individuals who are ambitious, resilient, and passionate about people.

If you're someone who enjoys meeting new people, thrives on achieving goals, and wants a career where your performance determines your success, we'd love to meet you.

Why Join Pasona?

This isn't just another office job.

As a Career Advisor, you'll become a trusted consultant who helps professionals make important career decisions while partnering with some of Malaysia's leading Japanese companies.

Every successful placement creates a win for three parties:

Candidates build better careers.

Clients hire exceptional talent.

You grow professionally while being rewarded for your achievements.

If you enjoy challenges, building relationships, and celebrating wins, recruitment could be the career you've been looking for.

What You'll Do

• Source and engage quality candidates through job portals, referrals, networking, LinkedIn, and social media.
• Conduct interviews to understand candidates' experience, strengths, motivations, and career aspirations.
• Provide professional career advice and recommend suitable opportunities.
• Match talented professionals with positions that align with their skills and long‑term goals.
• Prepare candidates for interviews, salary negotiations, and offer acceptance.
• Build strong, long‑term relationships with candidates throughout their career journey.
• Develop and maintain a strong talent pipeline for current and future hiring needs.
• Collaborate closely with your teammates to achieve recruitment and business goals.
• Every day is different. You'll meet professionals from diverse industries, expand your network, and help shape careers that make a real difference.

Requirements

• Bachelor's Degree in any discipline.
• Psychology, Human Resources, Business, Hospitality, or related fields are an advantage.
• At least 1 year of experience in recruitment is preferred.
• Fresh graduates are welcome to apply. Comprehensive training and mentoring will be provided.
• Experience in sales, recruitment, customer service, hospitality, or business development is an added advantage.
• Good command of English and Bahasa Malaysia.
• Japanese language skills are a bonus.
• Strong communication, interpersonal, and relationship‑building skills.
• Positive attitude, willingness to learn, and strong sense of responsibility.

The Person Who Will Thrive Here

• Enjoys talking to people and building genuine relationships.
• Is highly motivated by achieving goals and delivering results.
• Has a strong sales mindset and isn't afraid of challenges or rejection.
• Is proactive, resourceful, and always looking for new opportunities.
• Wants a career with continuous learning, personal growth, and unlimited potential.
• Believes success comes from effort, consistency, and perseverance.

If you're looking for a routine administrative role, this position may not be the right fit.

However, if you enjoy challenges, love meeting people, and want a career where your achievements truly matter, you'll fit right in.

What We Offer

• Medical Insurance (Hospitalisation & Personal Accident)
• Parking Subsidy
• Hybrid Working Arrangement (Upon Confirmation)
• Convenient office location within walking distance of LRT & Monorail stations
• Comprehensive recruitment training and structured onboarding
• Mentorship from experienced recruitment professionals
• Exposure to leading Japanese and multinational companies across Malaysia
• Clear career progression based on performance
• Continuous learning and professional development
• Supportive, collaborative, and people‑first working environment

Why Recruitment?

Recruitment is one of the few careers where you can:

• Change someone's life through meaningful career opportunities.
• Build an extensive professional network across industries.
• Develop valuable sales, consulting, and negotiation skills.
• Work with leading Japanese companies in Malaysia.
• Accelerate your career based on your performance—not your years of service.

If you're ambitious, driven, and ready to build a rewarding career in recruitment, we want to hear from you.
