In the story headlined "Job offers to new graduates in Japan fall sharply on pandemic," please note the following CORRECTION.

Please replace 7th and 8th grafs with the following.

ANA Holdings Inc., the parent of All Nippon Airways Co., and other group firms will only hire about 200 new graduates for the business year starting April 2022, ANA sources said.

The pandemic has already forced the group to revise its recruitment plan for the next business year starting April 2021, cutting the number of new graduates it will hire to 700 from the initially planned 3,200.

A corrected version will move momentarily.
