Andong City will continue to promote the local company internship support project this year as well. After completing the recruitment of participating companies last month, it is recruiting internship participants until June 17.

Eligible participants are unemployed youth aged 18 to 39 who have an address in Andong City, including unemployed individuals or graduates and prospective graduates of educational institutions located in Andong City.

The support types include ▲educational internships for workforce training at national research institutes, etc., and ▲employment-linked internships for training professional personnel to solve direct and micro-level corporate problems in the workplace.

The total number of recruits this time is 35, with 7 for educational internships and 28 for employment-linked internships. There are 18 companies eligible to participate, and participants apply to their desired companies, undergo a final interview screening, and then start working as interns from July 1.
