Korea Racing Authority to Recruit 60 "2026 Experiential Youth Interns"… Applications Open Until the 15th
Four Recruitment Categories:
Administrative and Technical Support,
Equine Industry Specialists,
AI and Big Data Specialists,
and Illegal Activity Monitoring
On May 4, the Korea Racing Authority announced that it will recruit 60 “2026 Experiential Youth Interns” to provide young job seekers with practical work experience and support them in strengthening their employability. Applications will be accepted until May 15.
The recruitment areas are as follows: ▲Administrative and technical support (26 positions), ▲Equine industry specialists (16 positions), ▲Artificial intelligence (AI) and big data specialists (3 positions), and ▲Illegal activity monitoring (15 positions), for a total of four categories. Successful candidates will gain on-site work experience for six months, either at business locations nationwide—including Gwacheon, Busan Gyeongnam, and Jeju—or through remote work.
Eligibility is open to young people aged 15 to 34, regardless of educational background, gender, or academic major. To ensure a fair selection process, the Korea Racing Authority strictly applies a “blind recruitment” policy that excludes factors that may introduce bias, such as educational institution and family background, during the application and interview stages. In addition, a separate “social equity track” is operated for recipients of the National Basic Livelihood Security Program, young people preparing for independence, North Korean defectors, single-parent families, multicultural families, and women with career interruptions.
