Seongnam-si to Operate VR Interview Experience Center

[Asia Economy (Seongnam) = Reporter Lee Young-gyu] Seongnam City in Gyeonggi Province is operating a 'Virtual Reality (VR) Interview Experience Center' and a 'Video Interview Hiring Day' to support job seekers in finding employment.

Seongnam City will open a VR Interview Experience Center on the 2nd floor counseling room of Seongnam City Hall on the 7th, where mock interview systems tailored by company and job category will be available.

By wearing VR goggles, a virtual interviewer appears and asks actual job-specific questions from real companies.

When the applicant responds, objective factors such as response speed, eye contact, and voice tone are analyzed.

The mock interview content is provided as audio files for self-study. The city introduced the experience center to enhance practical interview skills and increase employment success.

The VR Interview Experience Center can be used by registering as a job seeker at the Seongnam Job Center and making a prior reservation.

The city will also operate a Video Interview Hiring Day from the 22nd to the 24th.

Job seekers and recruiting companies will conduct one-on-one non-face-to-face interviews through laptops equipped with audio in the counseling room on the 2nd floor of Seongnam City Hall's Job Center.

During this period, 30 people who have passed the online document screening of six companies in advance will participate according to the schedule.

In addition, the city plans to open the Pangyo Job Center in the underground road near Pangyo Station, Bundang-gu, in November to operate job training programs supporting youth employment.
