[0039] The operation of the above configuration will be described.

[0040] The server 200 sends out employment matching content information to the outside via the communication network 100 (see step S100 in FIG. 5).

[0041] The employer terminal 300 and the worker terminal 400 connected to the communication network 100 receive the employment matching content information sent by the server 200 (step S200). The employer terminal 300 stores the received employment matching content information in the employment matching information storage area 340c. Also, the worker terminal 400 stores the received employment matching content information in the employment matching information storage area 440c.

[0042] The employer refers to the employment matching content information via the employer terminal 300 and creates the provided skill information and the desired person information. Then, the created provided skill information and desired person information are sent from the employer terminal 300 to the server 200 side (step S300).

[0043] On the other hand, the job seeker refers to the employment matching content information via the worker terminal 400 and creates the personal attribute information and the employment desire information. Then, the created personal attribute information and employment desire information are sent from the worker terminal 400 to the server 200 side (step S400).

[0044] The server 200 stores the received provided skill information, desired person information, personal attribute information, and employment desire information in a predetermined area of the memory 240. Then, the server 200 operates the employment matching processing unit 250 to perform a matching process of extracting and detecting a suitable combination of the provided skill information and desired person information, and the personal attribute information and employment desire information (step S500). Note that the above matching process is performed by associating, for example, the identification information of the employer terminal 300 and the worker terminal 400 with the above information.

[0045] In the above matching process, the employment matching processing unit 250 first performs a comparison operation process of similarity based on the provided skill information and desired person information received by the server 200, and the personal attribute information and employment desire information (see step S520 in FIG. 6). For example, the employment matching processing unit 250 performs an operation process to obtain the similarity between the provided skill information and the employment desire information (referred to as "employment similarity"), the similarity between the desired person information and the personal attribute information (referred to as "person similarity"), and the similarity obtained by fusing the employment similarity and the person similarity.

[0046] Based on the above-mentioned similarity, the employment matching processing unit 250 calculates the suitability of the combination of the provided skill information and desired person information, and the personal attribute information and employment desire information (including the identification information of the employer terminal 300 and the employee terminal 400) in the order of similarity (see step S540).

[0047] For example, the employment matching processing unit 250 extracts the top 10 of the calculated suitability and sends the result (matching processing result) from the server 200 to the employer terminal 300 and the employee terminal 400 (step S600).

[0048] As a result, the output unit 430 of the employee terminal 400 outputs the information of the top 10 suitable employer terminals 300 received from the server 200, that is, the provided skill information and others. When the job seeker selects a desired employer (information of the employer terminal 300) via the input unit 420 of the employee terminal 400 (step S700), this selection information is sent from the output unit of the employee terminal 400 to the server 200. The server 200 sends the received selection information to the employer terminal 300.

[0049] When the employer approves the information of the employee terminal 400 received via the employer terminal 300 (step S800), the approval information is sent to the server 200. Also, the approved information is sent from the server 200 to the employee terminal 400. Thereby, the employment matching ends.

[0050] If the employer does not approve the information of the employee terminal 400 received via the employer terminal 300, information to that effect is sent to the employee terminal 400 side via the server 200. After that, when the job seeker selects another employer from the extraction results via the employee terminal 400, the same processing as described above will be performed.

[0051] According to the above embodiment, a foreigner who wishes to engage in work related to skills or the like can suitably match with an employer who offers skills that the foreigner wants to experience or acquire in Japan while staying outside of Japan.

[0052] Also, according to the above embodiment, unlike matching by an agency that requires a large cost, it does not require the intervention of a person and the trouble of coming to Japan, so it is economically advantageous.

[0053] Furthermore, according to the above embodiment, it is possible to provide a secure, safe, and suitable matching service to employers who wish to teach, transmit, and inherit skills or the like to foreign human resources.

[0054] Note that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various modifications can be made without departing from the gist of the invention, of course.
