<Students are receiving counseling from consultants at the ‘Mobile Career/Employment Consulting Center’.>
The employment capacity strengthening program that YU (President Noh Seok-kyun) began offering for the summer vacation is receiving good responses from students.
The YU Student Capacity Development Office is operating the ‘Mobile Career/Employment Consulting Center’ to help students set career paths fitting their aptitude and to help them land jobs. Counseling is offered at the Group Study Centers in the Main Library and Second Library, which are frequently visited by students, from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m. during the vacation period.
Faculty and outside consultants specializing in employment are providing information and counseling for career paths and employment to students. They are providing career counseling and information on duties at work to younger students, while providing hiring information, employment counseling, application document clinics for resumes and cover letters, as well as interview information for different companies and mock interview programs for students preparing to find jobs. .
This has been very popular among students. Over 300 students have visited the consulting center that started on the 1st, showing the higher than expected passion for employment.
YU Senior in Mechanical Engineering Choi Gyeong-jae (24), who was recently selected as an intern for POSCO and will be working at POSCO as an intern for four weeks starting on the 27th said, “Counseling from the consulting center that ranged from writing resumes to preparing for interviews helped me greatly,” and added, “I will gain experience as an intern during vacation, and work hard during my last semester and land a job before I graduate.”
It is expected that YU’s assertive employment program that goes to where students are instead of waiting for students to come will help in the early career development and strengthening of employment capacities.
YU Student Capacity Development Office Director, Professor Kim Young-take (Mobile Information Communication Engineering) said, “It’s good for students to prepare to look for employment on their own, but by receiving assistance from experts, they will be able to make preparations more systematically and in detail.” He added, “As we are developing various programs to strengthen capacities of students and help them in landing their desired jobs, we hope that more students will take full advantage of such programs.”
Meanwhile, YU is planning to operate the ‘Mobile Consulting Center’ until August 14. The school is also planning to operate the ‘Customized Concentrated Career/Employment Consulting’ throughout the semester to help students with employment. Employment consultants will be placed in each department to provide information for career paths and duties to younger students fitting to their major, while providing employment information and operating employment support programs to senior-level students.
