The center will provide comprehensive employment support for university students preparing for job hunting by offering a variety of employment programs.

Participants will take part in programs offered by the Saeil Center, including ▲special lectures to strengthen competencies such as career development trends for the MZ generation, ▲the live class "Chwijunjindam" with employed seniors in each job field, and ▲employment special lectures and one-day classes.

In addition, they will receive free online employment support services such as resume clinics and mock interviews through "Dream Wings," the foundation's online career development center.

Hong Chunhee, Head of the Women's Competency Development Division, said, "The foundation is making multifaceted efforts to operate various career interruption prevention and employment support programs for university students. We hope that through this program, students will be able to strengthen their job-seeking capabilities and overcome the difficulties they face in finding employment."
