Samsung Group officially opens its public recruitment for this year, and around 19 of its affiliates are participating in the hiring today, March 11. This group-wide job hiring is the first extensive open recruitment for 2024.
As mentioned in the PressReader, the Samsung Group is looking to hire new employees. The target is to enlist about 80,000 new staff in over five years, which started in 2022. Thus, recruitment to achieve the said workforce number is already in its second year.
Application Period for Employment
Korea’s Asia Times reported that Samsung will accept application documents through its Samsung Careers website until March 18 only. Once the submissions end, the company will schedule the GSAT for all applicants. This Samsung Job Aptitude Test is a written exam that will be held in April, and interviews will follow in May.
In any case, it was noted that while many major tech companies are announcing layoffs to reduce their workforce, Samsung is hiring hundreds of people every year. This is proof that the company’s chairman, Lee Jae Yong, is fulfilling his promise to hire 80,000 people.
Participating Samsung Subsidiaries
In a press release, the leading conglomerate in South Korea revealed that its 19 subsidiaries will start accepting applications today. The participating companies include Samsung Electronics, Samsung Display, Samsung Electro-Mechanics, Samsung SDI, Samsung SDS, Samsung BioLogics, Samsung Bioepis, Samsung C&T, Samsung Heavy Industries, Samsung Engineering, Samsung Life Insurance, Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, and Samsung Securities. In addition, the group’s other affiliates, Samsung Asset Management, Hotel Shilla, Cheil Worldwide, S-1, Samsung Global Research, and Samsung Welstory Inc., are hiring as well.
These companies will mainly target new workers with job experience or excellent talent. They will also consider foreign candidates who meet Samsung’s academic eligibility criteria depending on the roles they are applying for.
