Kyungbok University Develops Career Exploration and Job-Seeking Skills Enhancement Program

[Asia Economy (Namyangju) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Kyungbok University has developed a career exploration and job-seeking skills enhancement program.

Kyungbok University announced on the 26th that its University Job Center recently developed the 'KBU-UP+ mobile app (APP)' to help students explore careers and improve job-seeking skills in the untact (non-face-to-face) era.

The KBU-UP+ mobile app allows students to diagnose career decisions and explore past experiences without restrictions of time and space. It also includes content helpful for job hunting activities such as resume and self-introduction letter writing methods, IDEA Mapping, and interview strategies.

Additionally, it enables usage from making one-on-one consulting reservations with employment consultants to linking with the integrated employment support system.

The University Job Center manages students' usage status through employment consultants.

The KBU-UP+ mobile app was recently selected and presented as an excellent case of a non-face-to-face employment support program at the Ministry of Employment and Labor's '2020 National University Job Center Seminar.'

Ham Do-hoon, head of Kyungbok University’s University Job Center, said, "Due to COVID-19, not only the need for non-face-to-face consulting but also busy students with curricular classes, various on-campus programs, and personal activities can use mobile to receive necessary employment support anytime and anywhere. We developed the mobile app to create such an environment." He emphasized, "We will continue to strengthen the unique functions and roles of the University Job Center and enhance students' employment competitiveness through high-quality employment consulting and services."
