'Job Demand Day' is a day dedicated to connecting companies with job openings to job seekers. Since November 2023, the Gimhae Employment Center has been holding more than two recruitment events each month.

This Job Demand Day was organized as a specialized event for the nursing assistant occupation, in collaboration with the Jangyu Nursing Academy, targeting graduates of the nursing assistant training program.

The trainees who participated in the interviews had recently obtained their nursing assistant certificates and had no prior employment experience in the medical field. To strengthen their employment capabilities, various programs for job seekers were provided, including a special interview lecture prior to the on-site interviews.

The recruiting company participating in the event was Gabul Medical Foundation Gabul Jangyu Hospital, which was identified in a prior demand survey as experiencing a shortage of medical personnel. The hospital plans to hire three nursing assistants to work in the integrated ward.

Prior to this event, the Yangsan Branch surveyed companies in the region with more than 30 employees regarding their new hiring plans. Among the 123 companies (771 people) that reported hiring plans for this year, 23 companies (147 people) indicated a demand for medical and health positions, making it the second highest after production jobs.

To respond to this demand for personnel, the Gimhae Employment Center prepared a recruitment event specialized for medical staff. Starting with this event in the Jangyu area, the center plans to regularly hold the 'Gimhae Medical Win-Win Job Demand Day.'

Kwon Kuhyung, head of the branch, stated, "We will continue to promote customized recruitment events that reflect the local employment situation and the characteristics of companies and job seekers. We will strengthen cooperation with related organizations such as training institutions to help solve local employment issues."
