They shared each company's R&D vision and recruitment information with attendees.


Dozens of students attended the recruitment briefings at each university, where they listened to and resonated with the companies' visions and future plans.

To secure top talent, the division conducts global recruiting annually overseas and plans to continue a variety of initiatives domestically, such as expanding R&D conferences and industry-academia collaborations with major research labs.


Kim Kyohyun, Vice Chairman and Head of Lotte Group's Chemical Division, stated, "In line with our 2030 vision, Lotte Group's Chemical Division is specifying key initiatives for both existing and future businesses to set our R&D direction and expand into new business areas," adding, "We plan to recruit core research personnel by 2030 to secure critical technologies."
