Blind Launches "Campus," a Dedicated Channel for University Students Preparing for Employment

University Students Can Now Create Posts and Comments
Access to Employee Reviews and Salary Information Opened

The workplace social platform Blind announced on May 27 that it has launched a dedicated channel for university students preparing for employment, called "Blind Campus."

Blind Campus is a student-only space within the Blind app, designed to facilitate information exchange among university students preparing for jobs. Previously, student members could only view posts, but now they can actively participate by creating posts and comments in the Campus channel.

Currently, the "My School" channel, which allows students to communicate with peers from their own university, and the "University Alliance" channel, which connects students from different universities, have been pre-released. In the future, additional channels such as the "Major Alliance" channel for connecting students of the same major, and the "Alumni" channel for asking questions and receiving answers from working alumni of the same school, will be opened sequentially.

Existing channels dedicated to working professionals, such as company and industry channels, will remain accessible only to employed members as before. Spaces for interaction between university students and professionals will be provided separately, while the communication environment focused on current employees will be independently maintained.

Features previously available only to working professional members, such as employee reviews and salary information, will now be accessible to university students. Student members can freely browse all company reviews and salary information without having to write reviews themselves. In addition, they can use features such as "Follow Companies of Interest," which aggregates recruitment news and posts from professionals at selected companies, and "Real-Time Popular Posts Curation," which highlights trending posts.

Blind plans to expand "Blind Campus" beyond a student community into a data-driven career solution. The company aims to support prospective professionals' entry into society by introducing features such as the "Career Roadmap," which analyzes professionals' career histories to suggest optimal career paths, and the "Practical Skills Guide," which provides required competencies and outlooks by job category.

Yoojung Jeon, Head of Korea Business at Blind, stated, "There has already been significant demand from university students seeking employment information through Blind, but previously, they were limited to viewing posts, which restricted active information exploration. Blind Campus aims to help students preparing for employment obtain practical career information by enabling two-way connections with fellow students, students of the same major, and working alumni."
