Kookmin University’s (President Jeong Seung Ryul) University Job Plus Center held two special training sessions on August 6 and October 14 for consultants from the University Job Plus Center and each college to enhance their expertise in career and employment counseling.
 
These special lectures were part of the “2026 Academic Year Kookmin University University Job Plus Center Consultant Capacity-Building In-House Training” program. They were designed to deepen consultants’ understanding of key job roles and hiring processes across various industries through sessions led by current HR professionals, thereby enhancing the quality of career and employment counseling provided to current students and alumni.
 
The first session focused on “Key Roles and Hiring at Cosmetics Manufacturing Companies,” while the second session addressed “Understanding Key Businesses, Roles, and Hiring Processes at Pharmaceutical and Biotech Companies.” Notably, the HR professionals directly answered questions submitted in advance by the consultants regarding specific company roles and hiring practices, sharing practical information that can be applied to guiding students in preparing application materials and preparing for interviews.
 
Through this training, the career counselors deepened their understanding of key job roles, work processes, hiring procedures, and required competencies in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical/biotech industries. They also examined job-search guidance methods tailored to specific industries and companies, gaining an opportunity to strengthen their ability to provide career and employment counseling aligned with students’ desired job roles.
 
Kookmin University’s Career Plus Center plans to continue offering capacity-building training for career counselors that incorporates real-world job and recruitment information from the industry, thereby enhancing the professionalism of the career and employment support services provided to current students and alumni.
