Aroundus prepares for online auditions and recruitment in Korea

Aroundus, the Korean startup, is preparing to launch a public audition and recruiting event for candidates of the art and media industries. The event is entitled #Safejob.

The firm will select 100 persons who upload authentic applications on the platform and reward them with cybercurrencies worth US$300 to US$1,000, which can be used on the website. It will also provide them on a weekly basis 500,000 won (US$444) to 1 million won worth marketing sponsorship on social media platforms. 

The event is slated to end on April 4. The employer with the most authentic and open recruitment procedure selected at the end of the event will be awarded a 13-inch Macbook Pro.

According to the company, the event aims to break new ground in the recruitment process for talented applicants, such as actors, TV personnel and singers, who are often underrepresented in the job market. The hiring process for such positions are frequently kept private and informal, a huge drawback for applicants while exposing them to fraud. It plans to continue #Safejob in the future.
