Jeongeup-si Holds 'Part-time University Students Meeting'... Listening to Difficulties

On the 3rd, Jeongeup City in Jeonbuk held a communication session with about 50 university students participating in the 2023 Jeongeup City summer part-time jobs at the city hall's large conference room.

According to the city on the 4th, this meeting was organized to encourage the hard work of the university students participating in the part-time jobs, share their impressions during the job period, and listen to suggestions regarding city administration.

The event proceeded in the order of explaining Jeongeup City's youth policies, presentation of impressions, free talk with the mayor, and commemorative photo session.

Mayor Lee Hak-su is holding a meeting with summer part-time university students on the 3rd.

This summer university part-time job program was promoted to provide diverse experiences through field-oriented work such as at local children's centers, senior welfare centers, camping sites, and Cheonsa Heroes, moving away from mainly assisting administrative tasks at the main office, business sites, and eup/myeon/dong offices.

A student who worked in Chilbo-myeon said, "I realized that public officials do more work than I thought, and since I had been considering a career as a public official, this part-time job was a valuable experience."

The city operates the summer university student part-time job program every year to induce youth job creation and provide university students with various social experience opportunities.

Mayor Lee Hak-su said, "Although it was a short period of three weeks, I hope this part-time job experience becomes nourishment for the future you dream of," and added, "Since this is a very difficult time for local youth, we will do our best to create a livable Jeongeup by discovering and supporting new policies."

Meanwhile, the city plans to actively discover and promote youth policies for youth independence and growth beyond university student part-time jobs in the future.
