LG Electronics and KT announce new recruitment drives

Major South Korean corporations LG Electronics and KT have announced new recruitment drives for entry-level positions.

LG Electronics is seeking talent for its future growth sectors, specifically focusing on robotics, mobility, smart factories, and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC). The recruitment covers 12 job categories across four business divisions, including R&D, sales, marketing, and supply chain management. To attract top talent, LG will hold recruitment information sessions at 12 universities in South Korea and six universities in North America, including MIT and Carnegie Mellon.

KT is doubling its recruitment of university graduates this year, focusing on roles such as network infrastructure, B2B consulting, and B2C marketing. A key component of KT’s selection process is the evaluation of artificial intelligence (AI) competency. Rather than testing theoretical knowledge, the company will assess how applicants use AI to solve practical problems within their specific job contexts.
