The event focused on providing practical employment opportunities for young people and creating a platform for outstanding local companies to discover tailored talent.


The venue was bustling with local youth and students who gathered to obtain job information.


A total of 25 booths were closely operated at the fair, including a "Company Recruitment Hall" featuring 14 leading companies from the Yeongcheon region, an "Employment Consulting Hall" with 8 booths aimed at strengthening job-seeking competencies, and an "Additional Events Hall" with 3 booths for diverse experiential activities.


Relevant employment support agencies, such as the Gyeongsan Employment Welfare Plus Center and the Yeongcheon Youth Center, also provided comprehensive support.


These organizations received an enthusiastic response from participants as they introduced key job programs run by the government and local authorities, such as youth employment policies and the National Employment Support System.


This job fair did not simply provide information; it focused on achieving tangible recruitment outcomes.


Human resources managers from participating companies were present at the booths, offering company and job introductions, on-site interviews, and one-on-one employment consultations simultaneously.


Participating students had the opportunity to gain a vivid understanding of the actual workplace atmosphere and the competency requirements for each role.


A student who attended the fair shared, "When I was preparing for employment alone, I often felt lost, but being able to access a wide range of information in one place was a great help. Above all, it was meaningful to have direct conversations with HR managers from outstanding local companies and receive specific advice about job roles and recruitment directions."


Yeongcheon City stated that, using this event as a stepping stone, it plans to further strengthen its job cooperation network with related organizations and universities.


Choi Jeong-ae, Acting Mayor of Yeongcheon, said, "Youth employment is the most urgent and important issue that our society must address," adding, "As this job fair has shown, solving youth employment problems is only possible when the government, companies, and the local community collaborate together."



She further stated, "We will continue to work hard so that young people can have hope and build their lives in the region, by mobilizing more support from the government, companies, and universities to create even more job opportunities."
