On that day, the junior students asked a variety of questions. They were curious about work types, graduation credits, which certifications to prepare, how to prepare for interviews, and whether being older was a problem for employment.


Senior Kim explained in detail about his employment experience, interview tips, work types, and welfare benefits. He also emphasized that mindset is as important as grades and advised students to take an interest in both on-campus and off-campus activities during their studies.


He said, "After joining the company, I realized that while grades are important, mindset is more crucial," and added, "Confidence is key in interviews. Also, since interview questions are often based on the self-introduction letter, it is good to prepare your own unique qualifications through various activities."


Kim especially emphasized, "Since a company is ultimately a place where people work together, the attitude and behavior of considering seniors and colleagues can be immediately revealed during the internship process."


The Department of Renewable Energy and Electrical Engineering has signed a customized education agreement with SK Siltron and operates the 'SK Siltron Agreement Class' following the company's required curriculum. As a result of operating this class, 10 graduates in February this year were employed by SK Siltron, and among the second-year students expected to graduate next year, 9 have already secured employment, with 4 scheduled to join this month.


In addition to these achievements, the Department of Renewable Energy and Electrical Engineering has shown outstanding results in employment at major companies in the electrical field. Over the past five years (2018?2023), it has employed a total of 383 people, including 58 at LG Group, 45 at SK Group, 16 at Samsung Group, 39 at Hanwha Group, and 15 at public enterprises such as Korea Electric Power Corporation, boasting the highest competitiveness nationwide among electrical departments.



Lee Jung-woo, head (professor) of the Department of Renewable Energy and Electrical Engineering at Yeungjin College, said, "Our students have endless opportunities to advance into renewable energy fields such as semiconductor processes, large-scale manufacturing plants like energy plants, and secondary batteries, which have emerged as key players in the 4th industrial revolution," adding, "We will do our best to nurture top talents in the energy and material components fields through customized education tailored to industrial sites."
