New services to analyze job seekers' employment odds, consult firms on hiring, and screen job postings for legal violations
Full launch set for August, with resume and cover letter consulting to follow by year-end
The government is rolling out a suite of AI-powered employment services designed to help job seekers find work and companies fill positions. The core features include analyzing a job seeker's chances of landing a desired role and identifying skill gaps, while giving employers tailored feedback to improve their odds of successful hiring.
The Ministry of Employment and Labor said Monday it will unveil three new AI-based services on Goyong24 — the government's integrated employment services platform — starting Tuesday. The ministry plans to run a roughly two-month pilot to refine user experience and AI response quality before launching the services officially in August.
The three new offerings are an employment-probability job-seeking consultation service for job seekers, a hiring-probability recruitment consultation service for companies, and an AI job-posting verification service for employment center staff.
The job-seeking consultation service analyzes a user's likelihood of securing their target occupation and recommends steps to improve those odds — including vocational training, certifications, and improvements to resumes and cover letters. Users can also connect to AI-powered training and job-recommendation services, covering everything from career preparation to job searching.
Through the recruitment consultation service, companies receive customized feedback based on a comprehensive analysis of their wage levels, employment terms, and job posting content. Employers can also type in keywords and have AI draft a job posting, which comes paired with suggestions for boosting hiring success and a talent-recommendation feature that surfaces suitable candidates.
Employment center staff will be able to use the AI job-posting verification service to flag potential legal violations before postings go live — such as gender or age discrimination or wages falling below the minimum wage. The ministry expects the tool to reduce repetitive review work and improve both the accuracy and efficiency of posting certification.
"AI-based employment services will serve as a smart hiring and job-search partner — connecting job seekers with tailored career pathways and helping companies find the right talent," said Cho Jeong-suk, director general for employment support policy. "We will continue to upgrade the services — adding job-activity planning support in August and resume and cover letter consulting in December — to drive employment administration innovation that people can actually feel."
