○ Gyeonggi joins the 2025 Global Talent Fair with 24 foreign-invested companies to support global talent recruitment
○ Expanded support efforts include cooperation with FDI companies, tailored recruitment services, consulting, and post-employment support programs

Gyeonggi Province opened its first official booth at the 2025 Global Talent Fair, held at COEX in Seoul from May 19 to 20, operating a dedicated recruitment center for foreign-invested companies. A total of 24 foreign-invested companies based in the province took part, conducting on-site interviews with global talent and offering employment opportunities.

Organized by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and the Ministry of Employment and Labor, the Global Talent Fair is an international job fair that connects domestic and international job seekers with companies. Gyeonggi actively supported foreign-invested companies in recruiting top-tier talent more efficiently at the event. While foreign-invested companies had participated independently in previous years, this year marked the first time Gyeonggi directly operated a booth, providing more structured and coordinated recruitment assistance.

Participating companies offered job counseling and conducted on-site interviews with global talent across a range of industries, including semiconductors, electrical and electronics, chemicals, and logistics. Job seekers responded enthusiastically to the opportunity to explore job openings and hiring conditions on-site and take part in immediate interviews.

Alongside the job fair, the Gyeonggi-do Support Center for Foreign-Invested Companies hosted workshops tailored to the needs of foreign-invested companies and introduced a variety of support programs. In particular, the center provided information on support measures such as tax incentives, tailored consulting, and training programs aimed at helping foreign-invested companies establish a stable presence and achieve long-term growth in Gyeonggi.

These efforts not only enhanced the province’s environment for attracting foreign investment but also laid the groundwork for supporting the continued success of foreign-invested enterprises.

“The recruitment center for foreign-invested companies operated by Gyeonggi provided a meaningful platform for direct engagement between global talent and foreign-invested businesses,” said Yu So-jeong, Director of the Investment Promotion Division at Gyeonggi. “We will continue to actively support talent acquisition efforts and offer a range of assistance to help these companies establish and grow within the region.”
