Gwanak-gu Operates Customized 'AI·VR Interview Experience Center' for Young Job Seekers

Providing AI Interview and VR Interview Experience to Overcome Interview Anxiety in Non-Face-to-Face Recruitment... Youth Culture Space Sillim-dong Three Room Available Anytime at AI·VR Interview Experience Center

[Asia Economy Reporter Jongil Park] Gwanak-gu (Mayor Park Junhee) has been operating the ‘AI·VR Interview Experience Center’ since the 1st to support young job seekers with non-face-to-face interviews.

Since the COVID-19 outbreak, large corporations, public enterprises, and financial institutions that hire talent through artificial intelligence (AI) interviews have been increasing, but young job seekers who are still unfamiliar with AI interviews face difficulties in preparing for employment due to a lack of information on question types and application methods.

Accordingly, the district established the ‘AI·VR Interview Experience Center’ within Sillim-dong Three Room (91 Sillim-ro, 3rd floor), Gwanak-gu’s representative youth cultural space, so that young job seekers looking for jobs can experience the latest recruitment trends and enhance their employment capabilities.

The experience center provides a space where applicants can try AI interviews using programs actually used by companies for recruitment, allowing them to prepare for real situations.

Here, young job seekers can experience ▲basic interviews ▲in-depth interviews ▲aptitude and personality tests ▲situational awareness and coping skills, while AI checks the applicant’s facial expressions, voice, vocabulary, and analyzes and evaluates aptitude and personality traits.

It is also possible to experience interviews using virtual reality (VR). When wearing VR devices, a virtual interviewer appears and asks actual job-specific questions from companies. When the applicant answers, objective factors such as response speed and voice tone are analyzed.

After the VR interview, interview questions and answers are provided as audio files for self-study. Experiencing interviews through virtual reality is expected to increase interest and help overcome fear of interviews.

Each service is free for all young job seekers aged 18 to 39 looking for jobs. They can check the schedule and make reservations on the Gwanak-gu official website (Participation Reservation → Participation Application → AI Interview Reservation and VR Interview Reservation).

The experience center operates with 2 people per session, 3 sessions per day (1st session at 10:30 AM, 2nd session at 2:00 PM, 3rd session at 4:00 PM), and can be used for 90 minutes from the reserved time.

For detailed information on reservations and usage, please contact the Gwanak-gu Youth Policy Division.

Mayor Park Junhee said, “Our district has a large youth population, and through AI·VR interview experiences tailored to recent recruitment trends, we hope young job seekers can reduce their burden and have opportunities to get the jobs they want. We will continue to develop various non-face-to-face services suitable for the post-COVID era and spare no effort in preparing support policies and systems for youth.”
