Gyeonggi Province's 15 Public Institutions to Hire 70 New Employees in First Half of 2017

The recruitment scale for 15 Gyeonggi Province public institutions in the first half of this year has been finalized at 70 people.

Gyeonggi Province announced on the 13th its first half 2017 integrated recruitment plan containing these details and revealed that application submission will begin in April of this year.

The recruitment numbers by institution are as follows: ▲Gyeonggi Lifelong Education Promotion Agency 20 people ▲Gyeonggi Jobs Foundation 14 people ▲Gyeonggi Agricultural and Forestry Promotion Foundation 9 people ▲Gyeonggi Cultural Foundation 4 people ▲Gyeonggi Provincial Medical Center 4 people ▲Gyeonggi Provincial Youth Training Center 4 people ▲Gyeonggi Content Agency 3 people ▲Gyeonggi Provincial Sports Council 2 people ▲Gyeonggi Provincial Cultural Center 2 people ▲Gyeonggi Provincial Disabled Sports Council 2 people ▲Korea Ceramic Foundation 2 people ▲Gyeonggi Family and Women Research Institute 1 person ▲Gyeonggi Tourism Organization 1 person ▲Gyeonggi Research Institute 1 person ▲Suwon World Cup Stadium Management Foundation 1 person, and others.

By recruitment type, there are 48 new hires, 19 experienced hires, and 3 limited competition positions (for people with disabilities).

This public recruitment will be conducted under Gyeonggi Province's supervision through entrusting a recruitment specialist agency, with document screening, interview tests, and final selection of successful applicants to be carried out by the public institutions themselves.

Following last year's practice, Gyeonggi Province will provide all applicants with an opportunity to take a written test. However, the test subjects are planned to be customized differently according to each institution's characteristics and requirements.

Additionally, Gyeonggi Province will operate a bonus point system for hiring experienced workers from small and medium enterprises this year. Common to administrative and production positions, those with 2 years or more of experience will receive 5% benefits, and those with 3 years or more will receive 10%. The number of selected candidates will be up to a maximum of 30% of the field-specific selection, and will be applied when 4 or more candidates are selected per field.

The small and medium enterprise experienced worker preferential system was established with the aim of alleviating the management difficulties of small and medium enterprises that are experiencing challenges due to high turnover rates and creating a positive virtuous cycle.

Interviews will be conducted as blind interviews excluding personal information, and the composition of external interviewers has been set at more than two-thirds of the total to enhance fairness in hiring.

Additionally, interview consulting support will be provided to all applicants who pass the written test, offering know-how and information necessary for interviews.

Kim Yang-ho, Gyeonggi Province's Evaluation Officer, stated, "This public recruitment is intended to provide young job seekers with fairer and more rational employment opportunities," and added, "By hiring talented personnel based on ability rather than credentials, we expect to be able to provide the residents of the province with higher quality public services."

Specific recruitment schedules, application submission periods, and written test dates will be announced in April.
