Since the second half of 2024, the city has expanded the scope of its existing 'University Student Part-Time Job Program' to the 'Youth Administrative Experience Program' to provide all young people in Yangju City with opportunities to gain social experience.


The work period is three weeks, from January 5 to January 25, 2026. Participants will work at Yangju City Hall, administrative welfare centers, libraries, and other locations.


Eligible applicants are unemployed young people aged 19 to 39 who are registered residents of Yangju City as of December 9, 2025. However, university and graduate students who are currently enrolled may apply even if they are not registered residents, provided that their immediate family members are registered in Yangju City. Students who have been selected for the Youth Administrative Experience Program (including the University Student Part-Time Job Program) within the past two years are not eligible.


Of the 35 positions available, six will be prioritized for vulnerable groups, including recipients of the National Basic Livelihood Security Program, those in the lower-income bracket, and individuals with disabilities. Working hours are from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., eight hours per day, five days a week, but may be adjusted depending on the nature of the work and departmental circumstances.


The hourly wage is set at 11,560 won, in accordance with Yangju City's 2026 living wage, amounting to 92,480 won per day and a total of 1,664,640 won for full attendance.

Young people wishing to participate can apply online through the Yangju City website.


Selection will take place at 11 a.m. on December 19, 2025, in the city hall situation room through a random computerized draw. The results will be released on the city website on December 23, 2025.


Selected participants must submit a copy of their resident registration, bank account, ID, and relevant documentation for special selection via email, mail, or in person between December 24 and December 29, 2025.
