In just 3 weeks, there are people whose ‘experience’ turned into a ‘career.’
This is not just a simple supporters group.
A project that created real cases leading to employment in Korea,
it is the Vijob Global Supporters 1st Cohort for international students.
🌍 20 international students, 7 countries, and 3 weeks
On March 28, at the auditorium of Two Sun World Building
the completion ceremony for Vijob Global Supporters 1st Cohort was successfully concluded.
This 1st cohort included Vietnam 🇻🇳, Mongolia 🇲🇳, Myanmar 🇲🇲, Thailand 🇹🇭, Kazakhstan 🇰🇿, Peru 🇵🇪, and the United Kingdom 🇬🇧
It was a 3-week short-term hands-on project joined by 20 international students from a total of 7 countries.
In addition, this supporters program brought together international students enrolled at various universities such as Seoul National University, Sogang University, Ewha Womans University, Chung-Ang University, Gachon University, and Seoul Women's University, making it a program that created deeper collaboration and synergy by gathering students with different backgrounds and experiences.
✨ International students who experienced “real work”
This program was not a simple activity.
The international students directly
✔ planned and produced content
✔ promoted actual services and carried out campaigns
✔ collaborated through team projects
They experienced the actual marketing work of a Korean company just as it is.
✨ 3 weeks proven by results
At the completion ceremony,
🏆 team mission awards
🏆 outstanding participant awards
🏆 team leader awards
were presented, making it a time to share the deliverables and achievements created by the international students together.
However, the true value of this program did not end there.
✨ Experience → Opportunity → Career
Through Vijob Global Supporters 1st Cohort, a real case emerged of an international student successfully finding employment in Korea.
This was not just a simple experience, but a result that showed that international students’ practical experience can be connected to a real career.
✨ What international students gained
During the short 3 weeks, international students gained
✔ practical marketing experience in Korean companies
✔ understanding of Korean society and organizational culture
✔ collaboration and leadership capabilities
✔ global networking experience
and, in the process, built an experience of growing not just as simple participants but as ‘For Leaders’.
✨ The message contained in the supporters program
This program is also deeply connected with the ‘Foreader’ community that Vijob is building.
Foreader is a combination of Foreigner and Leader, referring to leaders who help foreign nationals successfully settle in Korea by serving as a bridge for those who will settle in Korea in the future.
Also, Foreedom is a brand that stands as a reliable partner in the journey where these Foreaders grow together and create new success stories in Korea.
Vijob Global Supporters is also operated in a structure where participants share their own experiences, learn from one another, and grow together based on the experiences of Foreaders formed within Foreedom.
✨ The change created together
International students from different countries became one team based on different universities and majors, collaborating and sharing experiences, and these 3 weeks became more than a simple activity—they became a meaningful period of growth combining global international student collaboration with hands-on experience.
✨ And, the next step
Starting with this 1st cohort, Vijob Global Supporters
✔ will provide more practical experiences for international students
✔ expand participation of more diverse international students
✔ strengthen a structure that leads all the way to careers
and will continue to develop further with these goals at the center.
✨ Not just an experience, but a career
20 international students, a 3-week journey
And the changes and possibilities created within it
Vijob will continue this journey in the future as well.
✨ Now, it is your turn
If you are looking for an opportunity that leads to a career for international students, join Vijob and turn your potential into reality.
