Seoul City Recruiting Companies for 'Middle-aged Talent' Internship Participation

Support for Part-Time Work for 3 Months

[Asia Economy Reporter Kiho Sung] The Seoul Metropolitan Government announced on the 21st that it will expand corporate-linked jobs reflecting the experiences of middle-aged and older adults through the focused support project for middle-aged and older adults, ‘Seoul Run 4050’.

The Seoul 50 Plus Foundation is recruiting Seoul-based companies to participate in the middle-aged and older adults internship program to expand job linkage opportunities by discovering companies with hiring demand for middle-aged and older adults.

Participating companies are Seoul-based companies (institutions and associations) with hiring demand for middle-aged and older adults, where middle-aged and older interns can work part-time for three months.

Companies wishing to participate in the middle-aged and older adults internship program can apply through the 50 Plus Portal starting today.

Lee Seongsu, Head of Business Operations at the Seoul 50 Plus Foundation, said, “If a company is experiencing a labor shortage, it can overcome difficulties through middle-aged and older talents with job experience and career,” adding, “We hope many companies that want to newly recognize the middle-aged generation and grow together will participate in the internship program.”
