eBay Korea to Hire Double-Digit Number of Entry-Level Software and App Developers

[Asia Economy Reporter Minyoung Cha] eBay Korea, which operates Gmarket and Auction, announced on the 3rd that it will conduct an open recruitment for new developers for two weeks until the 17th.

The recruitment fields are two areas in the Product Experience Center (PXC): ▲Software Developer ▲App Developer. A double-digit number of new graduates will be hired. Applicants must be graduates holding a bachelor's or master's degree or expected to graduate by August 2020, and foreigners holding a D2 visa who can communicate in Korean are also eligible to apply.

PXC is an innovative organization that plans, develops, designs various products and services, including the representative 'Smile' series covering membership, payment, and delivery, and designs customer experiences.

For the software development position, participants will engage in upgrading various product structures and functions to improve the user experience for buyers and sellers, and front-end and back-end development utilizing large-scale traffic data. The app development position is responsible for developing and operating Android and iOS apps including Gmarket, Auction, and G9, as well as researching the latest trends in mobile apps.

Only applicants who pass the first document screening will proceed to a coding test, a second interview with the practical team, and a third interview with executives before the final successful candidates are announced. The application deadline is the 17th. On the 12th, an online briefing session will be held via Zoom, inviting employees currently working as PXC developers to provide an opportunity to resolve questions about eBay Korea’s development culture and work.

Kevin Lee, head of eBay Korea’s PXC Center, said, “PXC is an organization where planners, developers, and designers come together to design creative services and create customer experiences. We look forward to many applications from proactive and future-oriented talents who are curious about various problems and ready to face challenges together on this journey.”

eBay Korea offers employee welfare benefits such as a one-month sabbatical leave after five years of service and flexible and remote work systems. In addition, it has an autonomous design thinking culture, hosting an ideathon (idea + marathon) called ‘Stir Up,’ where all employees discuss improvements to existing products and services from the customer’s perspective and reflect them in actual business. Various job development opportunities are also provided, including language expense support, job training support for developers, and in-house study programs.
