Responding to Government Youth Employment Activation Policies
Selecting Talented Individuals with Excellent Job Competencies

The Korea Technology Finance Corporation announced on the 21st that it will hire 95 new employees in 2024. This is the third largest scale in history, following the recruitment of 110 employees in 2018 and 2021.

The number of recruits by department is as follows: ▲ 84 in the Technology Guarantee and Technology Evaluation division ▲ 6 in the Legal Affairs and Credit Management division ▲ 5 in the IT division. The recruitment will be based on the National Competency Standards (NCS) and conducted through a completely blind hiring process that eliminates unfair discrimination and bias, selecting outstanding talents with excellent job competencies.

In particular, this year, Kibo plans to newly hire 8 regional specialists (3 in the Chungcheong area, 2 in the Gangwon area, and 3 in the Honam area) to revitalize local jobs and nurture regional experts. To enhance expertise as a comprehensive support institution for small and medium venture businesses, professionals such as PhDs in Information and Communication, Data, Management, Economics, Mechanical, and Chemical Engineering fields, as well as certified professionals including Korean Institute of Certified Public Accountants (KICPA), tax accountants, lawyers, and patent attorneys will also be recruited.

Additionally, the corporation plans to expand socially equitable recruitment for veterans, persons with disabilities, youth preparing for independence, and talents from relocated areas, while adding extra points for carbon neutrality experts and safety experts, selecting talents based on job competency.

The recruitment process will consist of four stages: document screening, written test, first interview, and second interview, with successful candidates to be finalized in early November. Applications will be accepted through the Kibo recruitment website until 4 p.m. on the 8th of next month.

Kim Jong-ho, Chairman of Kibo, stated, “Considering the employment market contraction due to the complex economic crisis this year, we decided to conduct the largest recruitment since 2021, with 95 new hires,” and added, “We look forward to the active participation of outstanding talents who will lead innovative finance through support for small and medium venture businesses.”
