[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Hwang Du-yeol] Busan City has established and is operating the Busan Youth Job Platform ‘Youth★BusanJobs,’ which integrates youth job-related information and provides it as a one-click service.


The city created the ‘YouthBusanJobs’ menu (Busan jobs for youth) within the Busan Job Information Network, which has over 40,000 members, to maximize convenience for youth and serve as a hub for employment support services for Busan’s youth.


‘YouthBusanJobs’ goes beyond simple information provision by gathering youth job information scattered across various project implementing agencies into one place and providing it with one click.


The ‘Busan-led Youth Job Project,’ which was promoted separately by each agency, is this year being integrated and announced through ‘YouthBusanJobs,’ providing real-time recruitment and application status.


The city plans to integrate and transfer last year’s free interview suit rental service used by over 6,000 job-seeking youth and the Youth Dodream Center website, used by over 10,000 members, into ‘YouthBusanJobs.’


A new menu called ‘Cheongkkeul Companies’ (Youth-attractive companies), discovered from the youth’s perspective, has been added within ‘YouthBusanJobs’ to provide company-specific information on wages, stability, work-life balance (WLB), welfare benefits, and other factors that youth consider most important when choosing a job.


Busan City plans to monitor recruitment information in real time and provide customized employment support that matches the talents companies want with the demands of youth.


The city manages data on companies and job seekers to enhance transparency in the project participation process and accelerates management of mid-project dropouts and employment linkage based on actual corporate demand through professional counselors.


Since its opening on the 4th, ‘YouthBusanJobs’ has seen 1,380 new corporate members join in two weeks, bringing the total to 2,640 members, and the platform records an average daily visitor count of over 10,750.



Go Mi-ja, Director of the Youth Industry-Academia Startup Division of Busan City, said, “We will carefully manage to prevent job mismatches caused by information asymmetry between local youth and recruiting companies and do our best to create quality youth jobs.”
