'SW Inryeok Matching' Festival to Be Held for One Month

2023 Venture Startup SW Development Talent Matching Festival

The Ministry of SMEs and Startups (Minister Lee Young) announced on the 3rd that it will hold a Global Talent Matching Festival to resolve the deepening mismatch in the software sector. This integrated online and offline job fair, which will be held for about a month from the 4th to the 7th of next month, will feature participation not only from startups but also from numerous unicorn companies such as Megazone Cloud and Toss.

Youth from both domestic and international backgrounds who wish to work at innovative startups can apply through the online job fair website and select their desired companies to participate in joint recruitment procedures such as video interviews. Notably, this event will include participation from eight private educational institutions such as 'Multicampus' and 'Meotjaengi Sajacheoreom,' as well as 19 domestic universities including Kyungpook National University and Inha University, and even the Indian Institutes of Technology (IIT), supporting video online interviews between graduates (or prospective graduates) and Korean venture companies.

Minister Lee Young stated, "The Japanese Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry has announced that by 2030 there will be a shortage of 800,000 IT professionals, highlighting the intensifying global competition for talent," adding, "We hope this event will serve as a channel to supply excellent IT talent to innovative startups."
