Shinhan Investment Corp. Announces Recruitment for 3rd Batch of Financial IT Talent Development Program

Shinhan Investment Corp. announced on the 23rd that it is recruiting the 3rd batch of trainees for its financial IT talent development program, the 'Pro Digital Academy.'

The Pro Digital Academy is an innovative project selected by the junior board composed of MZ generation employees within Shinhan Investment Corp. It is an employment-linked training program launched at the end of 2022 to cultivate financial IT development talent. The recruitment for the 3rd batch is part of the K-Digital Training program led by the Ministry of Employment and Labor. In August, Shinhan Investment Corp. was selected as the first securities company to operate the K-Digital Training course. K-Digital Training is a vocational training program aimed at nurturing practical digital and software talent.

The 3rd batch has significantly expanded both the number of recruits and the training period compared to the 1st and 2nd batches. The total number of recruits is around 40, and any unemployed youth who can issue a National Tomorrow Learning Card through the Employee Training Portal (HRD-NET), regardless of their major, can apply.

The training is conducted free of charge over six months and covers financial IT, cloud, front-end and back-end programming, and service planning. Notably, this training course includes financial special lectures and employment coaching delivered by current securities company professionals alongside the IT curriculum to support employment in the financial sector. It is expected to provide practical education on financial IT, which students usually find difficult to access, as well as a comprehensive understanding of the securities industry.

All trainees who complete the six-month course will be exempt from the document screening process when applying for open recruitment at Shinhan Investment Corp. Through the Pro Digital Academy training, Shinhan Investment Corp. plans not only to nurture software and digital transformation talent from the perspective of its group mission, ‘Warm Finance for the Future Together,’ but also to fulfill its corporate social responsibility by linking training with employment.

Additionally, by operating a differentiated IT talent development program, the company aims to create a virtuous cycle where the digital talents nurtured through this program become core human resources for Shinhan Investment Corp.’s digital transformation.
