On Labor Day, May 1, a unique Homecoming Day event was held for YU alumni. The 6th YU <Employment Senior Tacit Knowledge’ event was held online.
The ‘Employment Senior Tacit Knowledge’ is an event where YU alumni working in different fields of society including conglomerates and public corporations after graduation provide employment consulting for their juniors at YU. This year, alumni and students gathered online due to COVID-19.
A total of 89 alumni working at conglomerates such as Samsung and LG, as well as at major public corporations such as the Korea Electric Power Corporation and Korea Railroad Corporation, and local companies participated in this event. They used the online career and employment support system that was constructed by YU in March of this year to open their online rooms to pass on their knowhow for professional life and to provide employment consulting to their juniors at YU in real-time. At this event that lasted from 10 a.m. Until 7 p.m., over 600 students logged on to show their huge interest.
Kim Min-ae (25), who graduated from the YU Department of German Language and Literature and currently works at the National Health Insurance Service, said, “I received a lot of help from my seniors through the ‘Employment Senior Tacit Knowledge’ while in university, which helped me to successfully land this job. I wanted to help my juniors preparing for employment after I graduated.” She added, “It was a bit unfortunate that I could not meet my juniors in person due to COVID-19 this year. I hope that next year I can come to the school and meet my juniors to pass on my knowhow.”
YU University Employment Center Director Lee Seung-woo who organized this event said, “The Employment Senior Tacit Knowledge event has especially high satisfaction levels among students compared to other employment programs. Despite most lectures and programs being offered online at the university due to COVID-10, over 600 students participated in the event on May 1.” He added, “Students receiving counseling can gain more confidence as seniors currently working at companies offer their own personal experiences.”
