On November 11th, Shinhan Bank inked a memorandum of understanding with the Seoul Global Center and Openknowl at their Seoul headquarters to aid foreign students' employment and financial stability in Korea. The Seoul Global Center, a government-backed institution for overseas residents, and Openknowl, an AI-driven recruitment platform, are both involved in the pact.
The three entities aim to collaborate on joint support projects, including promotional activities through online and offline platforms, and cooperation at events for foreigners. Additionally, they plan to broaden customized services to alleviate the financial hurdles international students face in Korea.
Shinhan Bank's Customer Solution Group head, Lee Seung-mok, Seoul Global Center director, Kwon Bo-geun, and Openknowl vice president, Jeong San, were present at the signing ceremony. As part of the agreement, Shinhan Bank will attend the 2026 Seoul Foreign Employment Recruitment Fair on November 18 at SETEC's Exhibition Hall 1 in Gangnam District.
The fair, organized by the Seoul Metropolitan Government and the Seoul Global Center, will offer foreign job seekers direct financial consultations from Shinhan Bank. A representative from Shinhan Bank pledged to continue working closely with the Seoul Global Center and Openknowl to progressively enhance financial accessibility for foreign customers.
