The Department of Business Administration at Gwangju University announced on the 11th that it held a "TeamBeyond U.S. Internship Briefing" in the ERP lab to enhance students' global employment capabilities.

At the briefing, which was held the previous day, Byungjin Jeon, CEO of TeamBeyond Inc., a U.S. internship specialist organization, was invited to introduce U.S. local company internship programs and strategies for preparing for global employment.

CEO Jeon provided detailed guidance on the professional internship system based on the U.S. Department of State's cultural exchange visitor program (J1 Visa Program), including the participation process, preparation steps, and actual working environment.

This program allows students to work for about one year in their major-related fields at U.S. companies, gaining both hands-on work experience and exposure to the global business environment. In addition, various cases of internship recruitment in fields such as logistics, trade, marketing, accounting, and IT were shared, along with real-life accounts from students who participated in the program and their career paths.

It was also emphasized that some companies offer practical, work-centered experience along with salaries of approximately $19 to $21 per hour, making it an excellent opportunity for students preparing for global careers.

Professor Daeseong Jeong, who led the briefing, said, "Direct experience in the global business environment is an important opportunity to enhance students' employment competitiveness," and added, "We will continue to support students in becoming globally competent professionals through overseas internships and global employment programs."
