After document screening, written tests, online personality tests, first interviews, and final interviews, verification of supporting documents and authenticity will be conducted, and the final successful candidates will be announced on the 24th of next month.

Meanwhile, among those confirmed positive for COVID-19, those who have recovered can take the test if they submit related documents at least one day before the exam. Those not yet recovered cannot take the written or interview tests, but those under self-quarantine can take the test if their release is confirmed. Additionally, the Korea Institute of Design Promotion has established safety management measures for the exam venues to respond to COVID-19, including disinfection before and after exams, mandatory mask-wearing, temperature checks before entering the exam room, and securing distance between examinees. Depending on the strengthening of COVID-19 prevention guidelines, preemptive testing and other measures will be taken for interview participants.
