The National Institute for International Education is an autonomous public institution under the Ministry of Education, aiming to cultivate global talent through international educational exchange. It operates various programs including the representative scholarship program for overseas talents to obtain degrees from Korean universities, the "Global Korea Scholarship (GKS)," as well as attracting, inviting, and supporting foreign students, and administering the Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK).

This agreement aims to support foreign students' employment activities by linking WantedLab's artificial intelligence (AI) matching recruitment service "Wanted" with the National Institute for International Education's "Study in Korea" system, thereby expanding employment opportunities for foreign students in Korea. The Study in Korea system is a dedicated site for foreign students, with a cumulative membership of 630,000.

The main contents include ▲supporting foreign students through the provision of diverse employment information ▲linking foreign student recruitment information on Wanted with employment information on the National Institute for International Education's Study in Korea system ▲collaborating to support employment activities for foreign students.

Since November last year, WantedLab has been operating a dedicated foreign recruitment section linked with the Study in Korea system. This dedicated section is recruiting foreign talents for over 180 full-time digital job postings including ▲development ▲business development ▲marketing ▲sales.

Taking this agreement as an opportunity, WantedLab plans to further strengthen its global talent recruitment business targeting not only foreign students but also foreigners residing in Korea and those interested in working in Korea. Based on its know-how accumulated through foreign recruitment promotions linked with its 30,000 corporate clients and various employment support education programs such as the "Pre-Onboarding Series," WantedLab will showcase diverse activities.

Lee Bok-gi, CEO of WantedLab, said, "As an HR company that best utilizes AI, WantedLab possesses recruitment know-how based on over 10 million matching data. Based on this, we will introduce various programs to support the successful employment of foreign students."
