PayPay Card, the credit card arm of Japan's largest mobile payments platform, was scaling its engineering organization and needed agency support to meet aggressive hiring demand — while holding the bar on candidates who could clear technical interviews and genuinely wanted to work in Japan for the company.
Grow supported both the quality and quantity of the pipeline, pairing engineering-recruitment specialists with a consistent focus on conversion, and working closely with the PayPay Card team throughout.
Interview and Offer-Stage Conversion
The quality of candidates and conversion rates needed improvement.
Balancing Quality and Quantity
Scaling PayPay Card's engineering headcount demanded a larger volume of candidates without compromising caliber.
Employer Brand Awareness
Many candidates were unfamiliar with PayPay Card, requiring extra effort to build interest and credibility.
6 Hires in 6 Months
Delivered six hires in half a year.
Custom Candidate Branding
Built a dedicated PayPay Card presentation deck to give candidates real insight into the company, meaningfully boosting interest and offer acceptance.
Expanded Partnership
Strong performance led PayPay to extend Grow's support into multiple departments beyond the original Card team.
