Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy Hosts Online Job Fair for Mid-sized Companies... "Supporting Recruitment of Over 300 People"

Conducted for 3 Weeks Starting from May 18

[Asia Economy Reporter Moon Chaeseok] The Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy announced on the 27th that it will hold the '2020 Mid-sized Companies Online (Non-face-to-face) Job Fair' on the 18th of next month in collaboration with the Korea Federation of Mid-sized Enterprises and IBK Industrial Bank of Korea. This is to revitalize the frozen job market due to the COVID-19 pandemic and to support recruitment by excellent mid-sized companies.

Thirty outstanding mid-sized companies, including Danal, Neowiz, Huons, and Osstem Implant, have applied to participate.

The Ministry plans to continuously discover mid-sized companies with new recruitment plans and support the hiring of more than 300 talents in total.

The fair will be conducted entirely non-face-to-face from resume submission to acceptance notification through a video-based recruitment platform application developed by a domestic startup, unlike past on-site fairs.

Non-face-to-face interviews will replace on-site interviews by answering pre-set questions via video, and real-time in-depth interviews will be supported if necessary. A live recruitment briefing session will be operated through a YouTube channel to help resolve questions about recruitment information.

An official from the Ministry said, "We expect high participation from job seekers who are familiar with mobile and self-video recording," and added, "We plan to focus on introducing excellent mid-sized companies that provide quality jobs, such as technology and innovation-oriented outstanding companies (World Class 300, companies selected as global top products) and companies with excellent employment and labor-management culture (Best Job Companies, companies with excellent labor-management culture, etc.)."

Companies wishing to participate can apply to the Korea Federation of Mid-sized Enterprises by the 11th of next month. Job seekers interested in the fair can check detailed information about participating companies and participation methods in advance through the fair’s website. From the 18th of next month, applicants can submit their resumes through the recruitment platform app to their desired companies.
