[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Heung-soon] Samsung Electronics will hold an online partner company recruitment fair from the 13th to the 26th to help its partner companies hire talent. This is part of a win-win program that provides small and medium-sized partner companies with opportunities to find excellent talent and offers job seekers quality jobs.

In this event, 53 outstanding Samsung Electronics partner companies producing parts and materials for semiconductors, IT devices, and mobile phones will participate to recruit new and experienced employees. Considering the COVID-19 situation, this year's event will be held online.

Job seekers can check employment information such as recruitment positions, qualification requirements, and welfare benefits of participating companies through the recruitment fair website, and then submit applications to companies they wish to join.

Six companies including Dongjin Semichem, Above Semiconductor, WiSol, KK Tech, WithTech, and Samyoung Sunhwa will hold online recruitment briefings in a non-face-to-face manner. Kim Hyun-suk, President of Samsung Electronics, said, "I hope many young people will find good jobs to realize their dreams through this event."

Samsung Electronics regards investment, employment, and mutual growth as its corporate duties and is strengthening CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) programs that can implement these. Recently, it has been focusing not only on enhancing the competitiveness of its core business divisions but also on creating youth jobs and co-prospering with small and medium-sized enterprises.

In August, Samsung announced a post-COVID-19 future plan aimed at creating employment opportunities for future generations and fostering an ecosystem of shared growth. Accordingly, it plans to hire 40,000 people over the next three years and create an additional 30,000 youth jobs. The partner company recruitment fair, which has been held since 2012, is also a support program encompassing youth job creation and mutual growth.

Employment and Labor Minister Ahn Kyung-duk said, "Samsung is making efforts to create youth jobs in various ways," adding, "I hope cases like Samsung's spread throughout the industry, and the government will actively support companies striving to expand employment."

The partner company recruitment fair is currently organized by the 'Youth Job Center' within the Win-Win Cooperation Academy, Samsung Electronics' dedicated organization supporting partner companies. The Win-Win Cooperation Academy, consisting of about 100 professionals, has provided free consulting to 1,500 partner companies over eight years since 2013. It has also offered more than 500 training courses in manufacturing, quality, purchasing, sales, management innovation, leadership, and more to 140,000 partner company employees. Additionally, through hosting recruitment fairs, operating partner company recruitment booths, and providing customized recruitment support, it has helped hire over 4,300 talents to date.

Kwon Ki-hong, Chairman of the Win-Win Growth Committee, emphasized, "Samsung's decade-long efforts to resolve partner companies' recruitment difficulties serve as a model for mutual growth and win-win cooperation."
