Onur Konar

Specialist Area

I specialize in recruiting across the Professional Services sector in Japan, supporting clients in building high-performing teams within financial advisory, strategy consulting, and deal-related functions. My focus is on helping organizations and professionals navigate complex hiring processes through a clear and structured approach.

My Advice

Every role requires its own preparation, and interview outcomes are often influenced not only by experience, but by how effectively that experience is communicated. Rejections do not necessarily indicate a lack of fit, but can often reflect a misalignment in how skills and achievements are presented. With focused guidance and the right strategy, candidates can significantly improve their chances of success.

My Background

I majored in Japanese Language Education and have extensive experience working in Japanese professional environments. Prior to entering recruitment, I worked at a Japanese law firm as well as global manufacturers, focusing on technical translation and cross-cultural coordination. I now apply this background to recruitment through clear communication, cultural understanding, and a people-first approach.
