This week Jun and Daniel scratch the surface of a big important topic: working life. Employment in Korea is generally considered for life, and it is nearly impossible to be fired. How does this impact work culture? What are the top companies that new grads in Korea want to work for? What is NaKaLaCouBaeDangTo? Why isn’t Samsung considered a tech giant in Korea? What is the process like for getting hired at Samsung, and why isn’t Samsung considered a tech company in Korea? What is a “CC”? What is an “alba”? What’s an exception in Korea, that is the norm in the US? What extreme tactic do Korean companies use to prevent paying employees overtime? How do you get a government job in Korea?
If you're interested in any of these questions, tune in to hear Daniel and Jun discuss all this and more! This week we also touch on an interesting and highly relevant restaurant concept, learn about Jun’s friends in high places, and discover that in Korea, standardized testing does not end in college.
Congrats J for starting your new job at Samsung! We’re so proud of you and can’t wait to see how your career unfolds!
