Purpose This study aims to understand the inclinations of young job seekers towards "hidden champions" - small but competitive companies that are emerging as potential solutions to the growing disparity between youth-targeted job vacancies and job seekers. We utilize machine learning techniques to discern the appeal of these hidden champions. Design/methodology/approach We examined the characteristics of small and medium-sized enterprises using data sourced from the Ministry of Employment and Labor and Youth Worknet. By comparing the efficacy of five machine learning classification models (i.e., Logistic Regression, Random Forest Classifier, Gradient Boosting Classifier, LGBM Classifier, and XGB Classifier), we discovered that the predictive model utilizing the LGBM Classifier yielded the most consistent performance. Findings Our analysis of the relative significance of preference determinants revealed that industry type, geographical location, and employee count are pivotal factors influencing preference. Drawing from these insights, we propose targeted strategic interventions for policymakers, hidden champions, and young job seekers.

This study reflects the current trend of the blind hiring culture focused on job competency rather than education specification as government initiative. In order to overcome the limitation of the existing document-oriented online recruitment process, we proposed a system architecture design of video interview system. In addition, we have evaluated the effectiveness through the development of prototype and performance experiment based on it. The proposed online video interview system is designed to combine intelligent Web technology to enable customized job matching and distant job coaching. This system is designed to reduce recruitment cost and opportunity cost of job seekers. Based on results derived from this study, commercialization of the proposed video interview system can be expected to be an practical online recruitment solution for the job competency based employment.
