National Health Insurance Service to Recruit 600 Youth Interns in the Second Half of the Year

[Asia Economy Reporter Chunhee Lee] The National Health Insurance Service (NHIS) will publicly recruit 600 youth interns in the second half of the year.

The NHIS announced on the 2nd that, following the recruitment of 700 youth interns in the first half of the year, it will also publicly recruit 600 youth interns in the second half to alleviate youth unemployment and strengthen employment capabilities.

To realize social value, 60 out of the 600 positions will be selected through a competition limited to persons with disabilities, and socially disadvantaged groups such as basic livelihood security recipients, single-parent families, and multicultural families will be given preferential treatment during the hiring process.

The eligibility criteria are youth aged 15 to 34. Those who have completed military service can apply up to the age of 37 depending on the length of service. Applications will be accepted online only through the recruitment website from 10 a.m. on the 9th until 5 p.m. on the 16th. Afterward, final successful candidates will be announced following document screening and interviews.

Successful youth interns will be assigned from September to the NHIS headquarters, regional headquarters, and branches (including business offices) and will perform administrative support tasks related to health insurance and long-term care insurance for the elderly for three months. Additional points will be awarded based on the duration of the internship when hiring new employees at the NHIS.
