Support for Improving Job Perception of Small and Medium Enterprises and Alleviating SME Recruitment Difficulties
[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] The Korea Technology Finance Corporation (Chairman Jung Yoon-mo, hereinafter referred to as Kibo) announced on the 1st that it held the launch ceremony for the "3rd Kibo Youth Technology Evaluation Experience Group" to improve young people's perception of jobs in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and to help resolve the recruitment difficulties of SMEs. To prevent the spread of COVID-19, Kibo held the launch ceremony on the 30th of last month at its headquarters located in Munhyeon-dong, Busan, for the Busan area experience group members, while other regions held launch ceremonies at each branch office.
The experience group is a program where job seekers such as university students visit excellent small and medium venture companies with Kibo employees to experience Kibo's technology evaluation process, write experience reports, and introduce them to future job seekers to improve awareness of jobs in SMEs. Following the operation of the 2nd experience group with 229 members last year, Kibo selected 245 experience group members this year through document screening of job seekers including university students who applied via email last month.
