Tmon Opens Public Recruitment for Entry-Level MD Positions... "Double-Digit Hiring"

Introduction of the 'Sushihyeong Gongchae' System Compressing the Average 1-2 Month Public Recruitment Process into One Week

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] TMON (CEO Lee Jin-won) announced on the 12th that it will hire a double-digit number of entry-level Merchandisers (MDs) by introducing a "rolling open recruitment" system that combines the strengths of on-demand hiring and large-scale open recruitment.

TMON is publicly recruiting entry-level MDs responsible for products across all categories, including lifestyle, electronics, and fashion. Applications are open through the TMON recruitment website until the 19th. This recruitment will be conducted using the "rolling open recruitment" method, which combines the advantages of open recruitment and on-demand hiring. Reflecting the recently expanding untact (contactless) trend, large-scale recruitment briefings have been replaced with online videos.

Additionally, while traditional open recruitment proceeded according to scheduled dates for document screening, interviews, and hiring after application submission, this rolling open recruitment reviews documents immediately upon receipt and conducts individual interviews if deemed suitable. The recruitment process, which previously took an average of 1 to 2 months, is planned to be compressed to as short as one week from application to hiring decision. TMON explained that this significantly shortens the process speed, a drawback of the traditional open recruitment method, to timely secure and nurture key talent in the fiercely competitive and fast-paced e-commerce industry.

Moreover, instead of large group-based assessments, the process is conducted individually to ensure safety from group infections. Before interviews, candidates' temperatures are measured, and health questionnaires are completed to check their health status. Masks and hand sanitizers are provided on-site. The company plans to strictly adhere to quarantine guidelines, prioritizing infection prevention and safety throughout the recruitment process. Once hired, candidates will undergo a three-month internship and, based on evaluation, will work as regular entry-level MDs.

TMON also operates a continuous talent registration system called the "Talent Pool." Through this, regardless of recruitment periods or processes, applicants can register their work skills and areas of expertise, and when demand arises in suitable departments, they will be contacted first and proceed with the recruitment process. Lee Jin-won, CEO of TMON, said, "We are conducting entry-level open recruitment to secure new talent for long-term future strategies and to create growth momentum for market expansion. We will do our best to strengthen welfare policies for employees and provide clear rewards based on performance so that top talent will seek out TMON first."
