オヤカク – Oyakaku – Confirm with Parents 

[New Expressions And Buzzwords – April 2024 Issue]

This is an abbreviation of “Confirm with parents.”

「親に確認する」の略です。

After companies informal job offers to students, there has been an increase in cases where students reject them, saying that their parents oppose the decision, after some time.

企業が学生に内定を出してしばらくした後、親に反対されたという理由で断るケースが増えています。

Therefore, companies have started directly confirming acceptance of the job offers with the student’s parents.

そのため、企業が直接、本人の親に内定承諾の確認をするようになっています。
