Shushoku sensen ijonashi

Takeo is a university graduate who stumbles his way through the idiosyncrasies of Japan's graduate recruitment market. Big and respectable corporations put him through the wringer, whilst smaller corporations try all manner of tricks and whiles to convince him to join. Mariko has always been there for him, as a friend, but when Takeo finds an ambitious girlfriend, she has to consider whether he is more than just a friend to her.
