Incheon City Selects 100 Young Job Seekers for Job Training... Internship Salary Support for Companies

Incheon City is supporting job training and corporate internship opportunities to enhance the practical skills of young job seekers. The city and the Incheon Employers Federation are recruiting participants for the 'Incheon Youth Leap Base' project, aimed at improving the job skills and accumulating work experience of young job seekers residing in Incheon, until the 6th of next month.

This project, launched for the first time this year by Incheon City to address youth employment difficulties, offers young people practical job training and internship opportunities at promising companies, while providing companies with the chance to hire prepared talent through a new type of internship program. The city fully supports the job training costs of about 3 million KRW per person along with a 3-month internship salary (2.4 million KRW per month).

The Incheon Employers Federation, the project operating organization, has previously selected a total of four institutions for job training and is currently recruiting young participants and local companies wishing to participate in the internship.

The recruitment fields include five areas: ▲ New media content production using video (20 people) ▲ E-commerce shopping mall (20 people) ▲ Employment course for business office workers (20 people) ▲ Corporate computerized accounting, tax + ERP + Hangul, Excel course (20 people) ▲ AI video production and editing using Chat GPT (20 people), with a total of 100 participants to be recruited. The curriculum is designed to reflect corporate demand and focus on practical training to cultivate young job seekers into talents suitable for internships.

Eligible participants are job-seeking youth aged 18 to 39 registered as residents of Incheon City. Applicants can apply to the respective training institutions by job category and will be selected through a first round of document screening and a second round of interviews. After completing about three months of job training starting next month, they can apply for internship programs at desired companies from January next year.

An official from Incheon City stated, "We hope that young people can gain confidence in employment and improve their adaptability to job duties after employment through the job experience and training they most need during the job preparation process."
