Seoul City to recruit foreign workers

By Kim Rahn

Seoul City will hire three foreign contract workers as part of efforts to make policies friendlier for expatriates.

Those recruited will promote and develop the city’s foreign policy, hold dialogues with communities, and conduct field studies on living conditions. They will also act as mentors for foreigners who come to live in Seoul after them.

Foreign residents in Seoul including migrant spouses who have lived here for more than a year or naturalized Koreans are eligible for application. They have to be fluent in Korean and experienced in cultural exchanges, journalism or public relations.

The city plans to give an advantage to Asian natives, who take up 90 percent of Seoul’s foreign population of some 330,000.

Application forms are available at the city government’s Foreign Residents Assistance Division at the Seoul Press Center between April 18 and 22. After reviewing resumes and interviews the final selection will be made in early May and the post will start in June.

For more information call the 120 Dasan Call Center or the division at 02-2171-2294, or visit www.seoul.go.kr or global.seoul.go.kr.
