This employment concert is designed to provide young people who wish to build their careers on the global stage with a wide range of content and useful information related to overseas employment. Starting at 5 p.m., the event will feature a briefing session on overseas employment by the Human Resources Development Service of Korea, a special employment lecture, a 2:2 public mock interview, and "small group mentoring" sessions with current and former employees of global companies. The program will continue until 9 p.m.

Among the various programs, the "small group mentoring" session will feature 22 current and former employees from leading global companies such as Nike and Kakao, who will share their extensive work experience with young participants. Not only will renowned global companies such as Amazon and Microsoft take part, but major Korean global companies like SK hynix and Kakao will also participate.

Participating young people will be divided into 22 small groups and will have the opportunity to receive in-depth mentoring with each mentor for 25 minutes in three separate sessions. Through this, participants are expected to gain concrete job search strategies, including company-specific hiring information, job-specific required competencies, and practical work experience.
