Tokyo, Oct 23, 2012 - (JCN Newswire) - Robert Walters, one of the world's leading specialist professional recruitment consultancies, has launched a new Manga Interview application for iPhone or iPad designed to help job seekers improve their interview skills.

Named one of the Daily Telegraph's 500 Must Have Apps, this entertaining app transfers all the helpful advice in Robert Walters' print interview guide into a stylish and interactive manga design. Both the manga app and print interview guides help globally-minded job seekers succeed at Western-style interviews. Even for non-Japanese professionals, there is a wealth of great interview advice from the importance of body language to approaching tougher, competency-based questions.

The guide follows the experienced Recruitment Consultant Akira throughout the entire interview process - from preparation and research, through to greeting the interviewer and closing the interview to leave a positive impression. He offers tips and advice to the interviewee Ken Suzuki on navigating the often confusing hiring process and avoiding common interview mistakes to secure his desired job.

Robert Walters values innovation and this Manga Interview app is an industry first both in Japan and worldwide. As the third smartphone app released by the Group, Robert Walters is a thought leader for industry expertise and a trusted source for market information.

Other apps developed by Robert Walters include the Salary Checker app, which allows users to gain instant access to salaries globally, and the Job Search app, which helps job-seekers search and apply for thousands of jobs quickly and easily. Whether for active or passive job-seekers, we produce a range of free business tools to help professionals launch their dream careers.

The Robert Walters Manga Interview app is available for free for the iPhone or iPad via the iTunes App Store.
