The university, designated by the government as an outstanding university for employment support, has been receiving strong responses for offering a range of support programs during the summer break to enhance students' employability.

The university operates more than ten employment support programs during the vacation. First, until July 25, it ran a re-enrollee capacity‑building support program under the theme 'Big Person Bokkbulbok Project' to raise the employment‑preparation mindset of students who had been away from campus due to military enlistment and other reasons.

Through this program, about 100 students received full support from the university to attend a free intensive TOEIC English course. The two‑night, three‑day career camp held in Muju helped reinforce their job‑preparation mindset, and special lectures by alumni who recently succeeded in finding employment allowed participants to learn strategies for employment success, all of which elicited positive responses from those who took part.

In addition, through the 'Youth Employment Academy', which has been operating since June 28, students preparing to become quality and energy specialists have been systematically preparing for employment by acquiring job‑related qualifications, developing job competencies, and receiving one‑to‑one mentoring with professional career consultants.

In particular, programs that guide students from drafting job applications to acquiring know‑how for recruitment at major companies, as well as programs that include visits to target employers, have received strong student support by helping them prepare their career paths in a systematic way.

The 'Special Lecture on How to Write Job Applications,' which provides clear answers to how to make the fundamental job application stand out, is held every other Friday in the Career Lecture Room through August 24. A master course for entering major companies, covering document screening, aptitude tests, and interviews, is also currently being run successfully. In addition, an 'Online Job Application Clinic Program,' in which current and former corporate HR officers review job applications one by one online on an ongoing basis, is being offered.

Also popular are programs that allow students to visit companies they wish to join during the break to acquire know‑how and practical preparation for employment. Through the 'Becoming a Company Expert' program, an outstanding program of the 2010 Education Capacity Building Project, a total of 319 students in 93 teams visited 189 companies, and the university covers all expenses for the visits.

Furthermore, by operating more than 50 employment clubs and supporting competitions and certification acquisition projects, the university helps students build employment‑appropriate qualifications during the vacation.

Lee Gwi‑jae, Director of the Employment Support Headquarters, said, 'Nowadays students view the vacation as an opportunity to solidly prepare for employment, and the university is making every effort to support student employment. I hope that through the many employment support programs the university has prepared, all students preparing for employment can steadily prepare for their futures.'
