Amid economic uncertainty caused by U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff hikes and political and social turmoil from the impeachment proceedings, Gwangju Global Motors (GGM) is launching a recruitment drive for new employees due to strong domestic and international sales of the Casper.

According to GGM on the 20th, the company is set to begin full-scale production of the "Casper Electric Cross," which was launched on the 11th, and is preparing to manufacture vehicles for export to Japan starting in April.

To address the shortage of manpower, GGM will publicly recruit around 20 mutually beneficial local talents for technical positions (entry-level) and general positions (experienced and entry-level). This is the second round of recruitment this year, following the hiring of 37 new employees on the 8th of last month.

Applications will be accepted until 4 p.m. on the 5th of next month, and applicants must complete an artificial intelligence (AI) competency test by 4 p.m. on the 6th, after submitting their applications. Applications can be submitted through the recruitment website. New employees will go through the AI competency test, document screening, interview process, and health checkup, with final results to be announced in mid-April.

A GGM HR official stated, "As the Casper continues to receive enthusiastic responses from consumers both domestically and internationally, we need to increase production, which has led us to open up recruitment for additional staff. Through this transparent and fair hiring process, we hope to select mutually beneficial local talents and provide hope for young people in the region who are struggling to find employment."

The official added, "If strong domestic and international sales of the Casper continue and customer trust in GGM builds, we may be able to implement a two-shift system in the future. This would require an additional 300 employees, resulting in significant job creation."
