Gwangju Nam-gu, Consulting on 'Employment Strategies and Salary Management' for Youth

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Jin-hyung] Nam-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City, will provide one-stop education covering everything from job success strategies to salary management methods to strengthen the job-seeking capabilities of youth participating in the region-led youth employment project.

According to Nam-gu on the 21st, the basic education for participants in the 2022 region-led youth employment project will be held over two days, from the 27th to the 28th, at the 8th-floor conference room of Nam-gu Office.

This training will include 38 youths participating in the Youth Hope STAY Employment Support Project and the Successful Startup Ecosystem Creation Project, which were selected as Ministry of the Interior and Safety public contest projects at the end of last year.

Nam-gu plans to invite experts from various fields to enhance the youths' job and job-seeking capabilities by providing consulting on overall economic activities of youth, including preparing employment strategies through analysis of employment trends, personal branding and image making, and salary management methods.

On the first day of training, Kim Su-mi and Ki Mi-hyun, co-CEOs of PMA Consulting, will each provide about five hours of consulting under the themes of “Establishing Job Success Strategies” and “Successful Interview Image.”

CEO Kim Su-mi will first explain the employment trends and the DISC behavioral type analysis, which classifies people's behaviors into four types, describing how to complement individual behavioral characteristics, strengths, and weaknesses.

The DISC behavioral type is a personality test developed by Professor William Marston of Columbia University in the United States, classifying consistent behavioral tendencies influenced by one's living environment into Dominance, Influence, Steadiness, and Conscientiousness types.

In the afternoon, CEO Ki Mi-hyun will introduce image making through personal colors that leave a good impression for successful employment and social life after employment.

On the second day, Kang Cheol-won, CEO of Enough Erave, and Joo Se-yeon, director of the Gwangju Youth Wallet Training Center, will take the stage to lecture on manuals and success cases for early entrepreneurs and methods to realize dreams through financial consulting such as salary accounts.

A Nam-gu official stated, “We will actively provide expert consulting to help local youths successfully settle in socio-economic activities and support networking at least once per quarter to foster solidarity among youths.”
