Korea Investment Management Recruiting Second Cohort of "ACE ETF" University Student Supporters View original image

The ACE Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) University Student Supporters (hereinafter referred to as "Supporters") program is open to university students residing in Korea, including those on leave of absence, who are interested in operating social networking services (SNS) and video production. However, students who will be in their second semester of their senior year as of the second half of this year are not eligible to apply. Korea Investment Management will select a total of 20 students through document screening and interviews, and plans to hold a launching ceremony on July 22.


The selected Supporters will participate in various online and offline activities to promote the ACE ETF brand for about five months, from the launching ceremony in July until December. All participants will receive a stipend and a welcome kit. After the program, outstanding teams and individuals will be granted an exemption from the document screening stage in future public recruitment processes for new employees at Korea Investment Management.


Special programs to help university students better understand practical work have also been prepared. As in the first cohort, executive lectures and practitioner mentoring programs—which received a great response—will be held this time as well. Through these, participants can not only gain specialized knowledge about the asset management industry and the ETF market, but also receive real-world career mentoring in the financial sector from professionals currently in the field.


A representative from Korea Investment Management said, "Following the success of the first cohort, we expect the second cohort of Supporters to inject new energy into ACE ETF. We hope that passionate university students will have the opportunity to realize their creative ideas, experience practical work in asset management both directly and indirectly, and explore their future career paths."



Detailed information about the application form and recruitment guidelines can be found on the official ACE ETF website and other channels.
