Rakumo Inc. and Pasona Inc. have announced a business alliance in the HR tech sector. The two companies will launch “aloop” on Monday, May 19. This solution helps with human resource management and recruitment support. The service aims to improve recruitment, management, and community building for diverse talent, including company alumni.
Japan’s working-age population is steadily declining, according to the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare. So, businesses face more pressure to change their recruitment strategies. A new trend is rehiring former employees. They know the company culture and can contribute right away. Companies want to build long-term ties with people linked to them. This includes declined candidates, information session attendees, and family or friends of current employees. They see these connections as potential sources for part-time work or business collaborations.
To take advantage of these talent pools, you need strong skills in managing human resources, designing systems, and handling recruitment. Many HR departments struggle. They often lack specialized staff to handle these tasks well.

Pasona and rakumo are teaming up to meet these needs. Pasona brings its deep experience in HR solutions, while rakumo contributes its skills in SaaS development. Their joint solution, “aloop,” will provide full support for managing and recruiting people connected to an organization, including alumni.
The service uses a special HR info management tool from rakumo. This tool helps companies gather and manage talent data from past hiring or employment activities all in one place. Pasona will add expert recruitment consulting. They will also boost engagement through business matching proposals, using HR data.
Through this partnership and the introduction of “aloop,” rakumo and Pasona aim to support the sustainable talent management and continued growth of Japanese businesses within the evolving HR tech landscape.
