One-stop employment support from interview coaching to face-to-face meetings with hiring managers; security, facilities and tech roles on offer; pre-registration open through Tuesday
Yongsan-gu in Seoul will host a job fair offering job seekers interview preparation and on-site hiring opportunities in a single event.
The district office, in partnership with the Seoul West Branch of the Ministry of Employment and Labor, will hold the "2026 Yongsan-gu Job Dream Day — 2nd Edition" on Thursday from 1:30 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the small and large conference rooms on the second below-ground floor of the district office.
The event is designed to connect job seekers directly with companies and help turn those meetings into actual employment. A small conference room will host an interview coaching session, while the large conference room will be set up for one-on-one on-site interviews with corporate hiring managers.
Positions available include facilities management at Dragon City Hotel, computer installation and repair at Juyeon Electronics, and bus driving at Taeyoung Transportation, covering security, facilities management and technology roles. The district said it varied the job categories from the first edition, held in July, to address a wider range of job seekers' needs.
At that first event, 10 of 60 job seekers in attendance were ultimately hired, a placement rate of 16.7 percent.
A health campaign will run alongside the employment support activities. The district public health center will participate with an "eat less salt and sugar" campaign and a "Know Your Vascular Numbers Red Circle" campaign, which helps participants check their blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol levels to prevent cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease.
Those wishing to attend may pre-register through Tuesday by visiting the Job Plus Center on the first floor of Yongsan-gu District Office, calling by phone, or applying through the Goyong 24 website. In-person applicants must bring identification.
Yongsan-gu District Mayor Kim Kyung-dae said the event was organized "to provide residents with real employment opportunities through cooperation with the Seoul West Branch," adding that the district would "continue to push forward field-centered job projects and do our utmost to invigorate local employment."
