This round of recruitment will cover all key divisions, including Home Appliance Solutions (HS), Home Entertainment (MS), Vehicle component Solutions (VS), and Air Solution (ES), as well as major organizations such as the Korean Sales Division and Manufacturing Technology Institute.

The recruitment fields span a total of 12 roles, including research and development (R&D) positions such as robotics, manufacturing technology, electrical and electronic engineering, and mechanical engineering, as well as sales and marketing, supply chain management (SCM), purchasing, manufacturing, quality, finance, human resources, and business and strategic planning. In particular, LG Electronics plans to concentrate hiring in core areas that will lead the company’s future growth, such as robotics, mobility, smart factories, and HVAC.

The company will also carry out a broad range of domestic and international outreach activities to attract top talent. Starting with the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) on August 31, LG Electronics will visit 12 major universities nationwide, including Seoul National University, Korea University, Sungkyunkwan University, Sogang University, Hanyang University, Yonsei University, Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST), Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology (DGIST), Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH), Pusan National University, and Kyungpook National University, holding offline recruitment counseling sessions with current employees and human resources staff.

Additionally, to secure global R&D talent at the master's and doctoral levels, LG Electronics will hold recruitment briefings at six universities in North America—including the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Carnegie Mellon University, University of Michigan, Purdue University, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and University of Wisconsin-Madison—starting September 9.

Since the second half of 2020, LG Electronics has operated a rolling recruitment system that hires talent based on job-specific needs, shifting away from large-scale public hiring at fixed times. However, during periods when demand for recruitment, such as university graduation seasons, is particularly high, LG Electronics regularly conducts both entry-level and experienced hiring by job position.
