IBK, 'Untact' Mid-sized Enterprise Job Fair Held

34 Companies Participate Hiring Over 300... Entire Recruitment Process from Application to Interview Conducted Untact

[Asia Economy Reporter Haeyoung Kwon] IBK Industrial Bank of Korea announced on the 18th that it will hold the "Mid-sized Company Job Fair," the first in Korea to conduct the entire recruitment process in an untact (non-face-to-face) manner, to support talent recruitment for mid-sized companies.

The fair will be held for three weeks until the 7th of next month, with 34 outstanding mid-sized companies participating and planning to hire about 300 talents. It is hosted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and organized by IBK and the Korea Federation of Mid-sized Enterprises.

Applicants can check video recruitment briefings and job postings on the fair's website and submit applications by the 27th. Afterwards, interviews will be conducted from the 29th until the 7th of next month using the video-based recruitment platform "Jikgam" application. Interviews will be conducted in two ways: companies' HR personnel pre-register questions, and job seekers upload video answers, as well as real-time interviews.

Online recruitment briefings for companies such as Neowiz, Danal, and Huons will be live-streamed on their YouTube channel from 3 p.m. today, with hosts answering questions posted in the chat window in real time.

At the opening ceremony, which was converted to an online format, heads of various institutions including IBK President Yoon Jong-won encouraged job seekers and wished them success in employment through video messages. The opening ceremony video and detailed information about the fair can be found on the website.

An IBK official said, "The mid-sized company online job fair allows applications anytime and anywhere via mobile," adding, "We hope it will be helpful to job seekers who wish to work at outstanding mid-sized companies."

Meanwhile, since 2009, IBK has matched a total of 146,000 small and medium-sized enterprise jobs through job creation projects. It also operates "i-ONE JOB," a specialized employment portal for SMEs.
