From idle to actress. Kawakoei Rina who gained popularity at AKB 48 talks, the necessity of "Enjoying working"

On August 7th, a job hunting event "CAMP SUMMIT 2017 ~The style of people who enjoy working~" was held at Spiral Hall in Omotesando, Tokyo. Former AKB48 member Rina Kawaei, who participated as a lecturer, shared her experience as a member of society in front of about 250 students before job hunting. In that talk, she talked a lot about her "second career" when she turned from an idol to an actress, and confessed that she made an effort to "de-stupid character" at that time. It was a special class full of episodes about the birth of "actress Rina Kawaei" as well as work styles.

Career education support program "CAMP" is started in 2015 as a project to increase the number of people who "enjoy working" by Mr. Hiroshi Sato, new graduate recruitment manager of Personal Career Co., Ltd., a comprehensive human resources service.

We will thoroughly comprehend how to become able to enjoy working, and so that students can take the right step in society .... He continued his activities for two and a half at the same time, and expanded the scale until 200 lectures / work / lectures a year could be developed.

And in the summer of 2017. A lecture was held in five cities, Tokyo, Nagoya, Osaka, Sapporo and Fukuoka for students only.

This event is "Lecture(Lecture) "," Discussion (discussion) "and" Interview (interview) ", and in Part 1, with" CAMP "captain · Hiroshi Sato's single lecture" Let's get started from job hunting " start. From his own personnel perspective I preached what I should do to "enjoy working".

In the second part that follows, discussion is made with real intention on the theme of mismatch at the recruitment stage by active personnel affairs of multiple companies.

Many personnel affairs of major companies such as SOFTBANK CORP., Nissan Motor Co., Ltd., Japan Airlines Corporation, Panasonic Corporation, Suntory Food International Co., Ltd. participated. Each of the recruitment professionals talked plentily about "what students are watching" through interviews and resume books.

And in the third part, actress · Rina Rina appeared as a special lecturer. The students stood up just as saying "I was waiting" and the first cheers and applause echoed to the venue this day.

Mr. Hiroshi Sato served as a commentator while one venue got into the crowd, and in the beginning he was talking with Kawasaki and talking along the theme of "Starting a career".

Sato: I became an actress from Mr. Kawaisoe who was originally watching on TV, and the thing that I feel most in the job I will work with is different each time. It is also a role and it depends on the timing of meetings, so there are times when it is the backside of an actress, and I feel it is very attractive.


Speaking of Kawaisoe such a start is AKB48. Although I am an idol, can I tell you what triggered you to enter AKB in the first place?

Kawasaki
: The chance was when I was a senior high school student, I was invited by a friend and received an audition. Just being honest, I did not think it would be acceptable, so if I say with a light feeling "that, I got it accepted" (laugh).

But, as I received it, I decided to prepare and entered AKB if I had to do it properly.

Sato: As it is accepted ... did not you feel uneasy?


Kawasaki: What should I do? Originally, singing and dancing were very weak conscious, so I really did not want to do it at first.


Sato
: It is a so-called gap. But why did you keep on doing AKB without running away when feeling that gap?

Kawasaki
: There are a lot of people falling down, receiving an audition. I took it for myself to accept in such a way that there was something good in myself. Even my friends who got it together also fell down.

Sato: That's overwhelmingly awkward, is not it? (Laugh).


Kawasaki: Even now our relationship is good! (Lol). However, since such a child was close at hand, I thought "Oh, I have to work hard".

Thumb 6

Kawayoe who jumped into an unknown world despite being unaware of wanting to do a special idol in his school days. As a research student, I did not understand either the right nor the left, every day, I struggled with songs and dance lessons that I am not good at.

The expression of the students listening to the past that challenged without escaping from the reality before such a thing was serious as if I was feeling something.

Next theme is "turning point". Kawakita gradually grew into top idol, but decided to switch to an actress while still active as an idol. I decided to go to the actor's way, what is that turning point?

Kawasaki: I did not have such a desire so much since I was a little, but when I first played with AKB I said "It's fun." I could find something I wanted to do for the first time. So I graduated from idle to do what I like.


Sato: This is what everyone thinks, but the timing when Mr. Kawasaki turns into an actress has the impression of saying that it is a colossal when I think I can still run at AKB. Did not you worry or think about anything at that turning point?


Kawasaki: I feel more fun than anxiety. Even if I could not fail it, I did it with a tension that I could do different things.

Thumb 7

Sato: When you decided to make a big decision that will affect your life, did you prioritize those who feel "fun" rather than past experiences or anxiety?


Kawasaki
:I agree. It is a human being who wants to live by doing fun things (laugh).

Sato: So, many people think that people of the same generation "because the current situation is better, do not challenge" or "I'm happy but it is safer now", but for those who live like that What do you think?


Kawasaki
: It would be nice if it would be fun, but I think that it is absolutely best to do what you want to do.

There was no hesitancy in going to the way of actress in Kawasaki.

It is straight to the feelings of myself, there is not any preeminence in the glory of the past. Conversely speaking, you know that you are living greedily for the thought of "I want to do something fun". Perhaps because I am acting on actress with that simple feeling, it may be creating various expressions in the play.

The question time from the venue here. Introducing questions of students posted on the official Twitter of "CAMP" and planning to answer Kawakoei.

"When I shifted from an idol to an actress, I think that the position has changed somewhat, have you had any difficulties in doing so, or have you changed something like yourself?" In response to this question, this answer came back from Kawasaki.

Kawasaki
: Since I became one from a group called Idol, I began to have awareness that "I have to do anything on my own."

What I tried at that time was to break away from the "Baka Character" that had penetrated the AKB era. When I am watching people who are stupid in front of you playing, I'm a type of thinking I'm a stupid person. So I kept trying to erase my character.

Sato
: I think it is very difficult to erase my character, what specific measures did you take?


Thumb 9

Kawasaki
: Do not talk too much, or avoid words like stupidity. I did it from something that anyone could do. Right now I am growing up from the atmosphere (laugh).

In the AKB era, Kawaraer who gained popularity with "Baka Character" along with its lovely looks. I confessed my efforts to "Baka Character" to actress, and invited me to laugh at the venue.

And finally, from a student who works as a one day limited reporter at a part-time job hiring information service "an" plan operated by Person career "an super byte", "What was the most effort to succeed as an actress?" Okay, Kawayuki laughed.

Thumb 10

Kawasaki: I am constantly aware that it is "effort" or "low attitude" to the workplace and surrounding people. Even if the play is good, no matter how bad your face is, it is best not to be polite.


The attitude towards those people is the place most people are watching. I think that it is not just because it is an actress, but first as a human being.

Through this event, it is not Kawakoei Rina of AKB 48 but an actress / Kawasei Rina. It seems that everyone thought so.

Approximately 250 students gathered at the venue recorded Kawakoe's "enjoy working" attitude on the notebook and carved the heart to challenge what he wants to do.

I am looking forward to the time that each individual learns to society by practicing "new job hunting" not tied to stereotype, learned in this project.
