Incheon TP's 'Dreamnarae' Service for Interview Suit Rental Receives Positive Response

[Asia Economy Reporter Park Hyesook] Incheon Technopark (Incheon TP), together with Incheon City, is implementing the 'Dream Narae' service, which lends interview suits to young people preparing for employment.

First introduced in 2018 as the 'Youth Interview Support Service,' this project was renamed 'Dream Narae for Interviewing Youth' starting this year, and the scope of eligible recipients has been expanded.

The support targets job-seeking youth aged 18 to 34 living in Incheon, providing up to 3 times per year per person (up to 5 times for job-seeking youth with disabilities).

The rental items include men's suit jackets and pants, neckties, and shirts, and women's suit jackets and pants with blouses, which can be used for 2 nights and 3 days before returning.

To apply for rental, applicants submit supporting documents through the Incheon City Youth Job Portal (http://young.incheon.kr) and then visit the designated rental store according to the reservation schedule, where experts help select suits suitable for employment purposes and body type.

So far, over 4,800 people have used the service, with more than 6,000 rentals. In annual satisfaction surveys, over 80% of respondents have answered 'very satisfied' or 'satisfied,' showing a positive response.

The designated rental stores are Bupyeong Classy Tailor Shop and Saloto Incheon Branch in Guwol-dong, operating two locations.

For more details, refer to the Incheon City Youth Job Portal or contact the Incheon TP Employment Support Center at 032-725-3036.

An Incheon TP official stated, "We are helping reduce the interview cost burden for young people seeking jobs and supporting their employment activities," adding, "Especially nowadays, when hiring has been reduced or postponed due to COVID-19, extending the job preparation period, we hope this will help youth employment."
