Kookmin Bank will look to foreign college students in Korea, aiming at securing a deep pool of global manpower, the lender said Thursday.

According to the bank, it plans to employ a total of 100 non-Koreans studying at local universities this year as interns.

“The recruitment of foreign college students is in line with Kookmin Bank’s concentration on investment banking (IB) and expansion into overseas markets,” the official of the bank said.

“We will be able to acquire competent global human resources in advance with a view to unearthing and distributing a new growth engine because the internship program is expected to provide a deep pool of human strength.

“In addition, it will help cement our status as a global bank.”

The internship program is scheduled to last eight weeks during the winter break and foreign students, from more than 10 countries who attend Korean universities as of December 2010 are eligible to apply for the program.

The countries are those which Kookmin Bank has entered or plans to expand into.

Kookmin’s internship program differs as other local banks usually depend on local college students for their interns.

What is more eye-catching is that the bank will offer full-time jobs to interns with high marks, when it recruits new global bankers.

Interns will be deployed to the headquarters and will learn the bank’s state-of-the-art banking system, including its expansion strategy for overseas markets and the IB business.

They will also have opportunities to experience Korean traditional culture and corporate social responsibility (CSR) activities.

Applications can only be made at the website (www.kbstar.com) from Dec. 6 to 13.

Kookmin plans to announce the successful candidates in mid December.

“The foreign college students are expected to play the role of PR ambassadors in promoting Korean culture as well as Kookmin Bank,” the lender said.
