〔labor shortage and job mismatching solved through diversified job channels〕

GSFIC has supported them in various ways to settle a shortage of labor which the foreign companies have struggled with through diverse workforce networks.

The Online Recruitment Network(Workshop)(www.foreigncompanyjob.com) only for the foreign companies opened in 2018, which provides comprehensive information system that can be seen in one place, such as information on companies and industrial complexes, job openings and announcement, and etc.

The number of visitors to the web site during the first half of 2019 totaled 14,400 and it has broadened its position as a window of job and publicity.

Besides, GSFIC held “Visiting Job Strategy Briefing Session” for the colleges and universities in Gyeonggi-and Choongcheong-provinces, and Gyeongin Region, and introduced the concepts and culture of the foreign companies, job strategies, and etc. to ensure that talented job seekers can get jobs easily. In the first half of 2019, the briefing session expanded its scope to the specialized high schools, and the number of attendees totaled 665 in 9 sessions. In the second half, the briefing session is to be expanded nationwide to put more effort into finding a wider range of “talents”.

GSFIC analyzes systematically job announcements by job type and supports classified information through a variety of offline workforce networks. In the case of technical jobs and professions difficult to employ talents, compared to the office work, GSFIC has supported workers through interactions with vocational schools and departments in addition to posting “job offer” on the portal sites. And GSFIC has tried hard to solve the labor shortage, and so it supported 29 talents in 13 foreign companies through on-and off-lines in the first half of the year. GSFIC plans to further expand the workforce network from this time forward, and to continue support to prevent recruitment blind spots.
