Click "See Results" when you finish choosing the values ​​that you value.


An inquiry plan was created automatically according to the values ​​you clicked on.


In the question proposal, the contents of the question at the top is described, the commentary is written in thin letters below it, and at the bottom is the values ​​that caused this question to be created. The question "how often do lunch meetings and other events, etc.?" Was made from the choices of "Eats Lunch Together" (eat lunch with work associates) of their choice. In the commentary, "Anyone would like to know what lunch time is like, but asking as it is not interesting, in that case, ask the event etc. to be done at the company's lunch Let's see if we can see if lunch is being offered or whether we will eat with other people. "


The proposed draft proposal to people with values ​​that emphasize "Promotes from Within" (Internal Promotion) asked executives and leaders to recruit official posts for external humans like me this time I asked the reasons why I was recruiting external talent, not internally, and explored the situation inside the company.


A question suggested by a person who emphasizes corporate culture with values ​​in "Engages with Community" is a straight question that "What kind of community do you have a connection with your company?" And, in the commentary column, there is a question suggestion "In addition, what kind of things can you do to make and contribute to such a community?"


In Culture Queries, whichever value you choose, all 20 questions are chosen, but only 6 of them can be viewed unregistered. In order to confirm all 20 question proposals, registration of a mail address is necessary. To register, enter the mail address in the input box under the question suggestion and click "Send".


You will see that all the question suggestions have been sent to the email address you entered.


In the e-mail address inbox, an e-mail from Key Values ​​arrived, and a total of 20 question drafts were stated.


On the question draft page of Culture Queries, there are several other job offers of the company. These companies place emphasis on the same values ​​as the values ​​that they emphasize.
