Written Exams Crowded on September 11
[Asia Economy Reporter Park Sun-mi] The scale of new employee recruitment in financial public enterprises for the second half of this year is expected to exceed 600 people. While banks are filling positions through occasional recruitment instead of large-scale public recruitment in the second half, financial public enterprises are actively creating jobs by finalizing public recruitment schedules despite the COVID-19 situation.
According to the financial sector on the 3rd, the Financial Supervisory Service is proceeding with the recruitment process for 90 comprehensive staff (Grade 5) in the second half of this year. Applications were accepted until the end of last month, and the first written exam is scheduled for the 11th. The second written exam will be held on the 23rd of next month, followed by first and second interviews in November and December, with the final successful candidates to be announced at the end of the year or early January next year. The Bank of Korea is also recruiting 50 new employees. The written exam will be held on the 11th, followed by interviews in October, with the final successful candidates announced in November. The Korea Exchange, which is recruiting 43 new employees, will hold its written exam on the 11th of this month.
Among the policy banks, IBK Industrial Bank of Korea has the largest scale of new employee recruitment with 100 new hires. Applications are accepted until the 24th, and after document screening, written exams, practical tests, and interviews, the final successful candidates will be announced in December. Reflecting IBK President Yoon Jong-won's philosophy of ‘unbiased and inclusive personnel,’ a separate recruitment track for high school graduates allowing ‘employment first, then further education’ is also being conducted. High school graduates can learn on the job after joining and receive support for obtaining a bachelor's degree through competency development support programs. Following the recruitment of 500 youth interns this year, an additional 250 youth interns will be hired in the second half.
The Korea Development Bank plans to announce new recruitment next week, with the number of hires expected to exceed last year's 59. The Export-Import Bank, planning to hire 40 people, is accepting applications until the 8th of this month. Without a separate document screening announcement, the first written exam will be held on the 11th, followed by the second written exam and interviews in October.
The Korea Deposit Insurance Corporation completed document submissions by last month to recruit 21 new employees in the second half and will conduct the written exam on the 11th of this month. The Korea Credit Guarantee Fund will publicly recruit 99 new employees in the second half. Document submissions are ongoing until the 7th of this month. In addition to 70 financial office personnel, 17 specialized personnel including 12 ICT and data experts and 5 technical evaluation experts will be hired, and 12 candidates will be selected through a special high school recruitment track.
The Korea Securities Depository plans to complete the recruitment process for 50 new employees within this month. Previously, the Korea Housing Finance Corporation completed recruitment of 72 new employees and is preparing for personnel appointments.
