Having a top university label and an eye-catching ID photo certainly didn't hurt one's chances

of landing a better job here in Korea.

But efforts are underway to change that trend... starting with public firms.

Relevant education, training, character and experience will play the deciding factors.

In our news features tonight, Oh Jung-hee gets us better acquainted with the new blind

recruitment system.

What's been making life more difficult for young job seekers in Korea, in addition to

the frozen job market,... is the widespread recruitment culture -- firms seeking students

from high-level universities with good grades, strong foreign language skills and extra certification.

But the Moon Jae-in administration is to make a change to that starting from the latter

half of this year.

(Korean) June 22, 2017 "Applicants to public organizations won't

have to write down discriminatory factors like academic background, hometown or physical

conditions.

This is to have those from different universities fairly compete from the same starting point,

evaluated by their competency."

[ , ]

(Korean ) "These days, students don't give a serious

thought to what their real dreams are... but instead are busy thoughtlessly earning certifications.

We want to end this and change our society to the one where people can first think about

their desired career path and diligently prepare for that."

(Stand-up) "The National Health Insurance Corporation

is one of the very few public institutions that's been conducting blind recruitment.

It adopted the new recruitment system in 2015,... so has a lot to share with other public organizations

on the system's strengths, and on how best to conduct the whole process."

80-percent of the corporation's work is taking civil complaints,... so communication and

problem-solving skills are crucial.

Current application forms don't ask applicants about their academic background or language

skills... but about whether they have related experience... or took related school courses.

(Korean ) "Through the blind recruitment system, we

can offer opportunities to more applicants than before.

Also, the time new employees take to adjust... is shortened from 6 months to 2 or 3 months."

Hwang Hee-yeong graduated a local university... and went through several failures in job-seeking.

But after highlighting her experiences as a teaching assistant and others,... her key

capabilities were acknowledged and she was finally employed.

(Korean ) "I also applied to other companies that weren't

'blind recruiting,' but I wasn't confident about myself, and if I failed, I'd blame my

academic background.

But my current company recognized my capabilities above anything else, and that motivates me

to work even harder."

Midas-IT, a mid-sized software provider,... has been hiring workers based on their personality

and work ethic for seven years.

Until 2010, the company -- just like others -- had been hiring people who graduated from

top universities... but now, the company takes that only for reference.

(Korean ) "We once did an employee investigation...

and found out those who were doing well in our company weren't from good universities.

And they were all more positive, proactive, passionate and strategic than others.

So we thought those traits should be the key standards."

Kim Dong-min, who's been working here for 11 months,... says he didn't graduate from

a famous university and doesn't even have a widely-required high English score.

(Korean ) "I thought that it was natural for companies

to consider applicants' university degrees... but for this company, no.

During the interview, I told the interviewers mostly about what I can contribute by working

here."

Korea is only at the beginning stage of becoming a capability-based society... and some things

need to be done to successfully implement and improve the blind recruitment system.

(Korean ) "There will be cases when companies have good

enough reasons to see, maybe not which university applicants are from, but what they majored

in.

The same goes for photos or gender.

The policy will have to become a bit more flexible if it were to be expanded to the

private sector."

After blind recruitment was first announced by the government, responses varied among

university students,... with some saying it's a reverse discrimination against those from

high-level universities.

But all in all, the new system has been praised just for veiling applicants' university degrees...

as it grants opportunities to more people to 'just give it a try.'

Attitudes, Strengths, Weaknesses in Public Speaking - Duration: 2:10.

Hello, my name is Elizabeth Jones and this is my second year at Santa Fe college.

I am hoping to get into the nursing program next year and that will be great!

I think public speaking is important because in your professional life, you need to be

able to convey information effectively and clearly.

It is also important to be professional when you are conveying that information.

It is also important in your private life, because you need to be able to effectively

communicate with everyone around you, in every relationship that you have.

My strengths as a public speaker are that I am a good story-teller.

I believe this is because I read aloud to my siblings a lot when I was younger.

I used to do all kinds of voices for the characters.

And so it makes it really easy for me to tell stories nicely.

I also do not talk with a monotone, because it really bugs me when people just monotone

the whole sentence and they don't even change their voice at all for the end of a sentence.

So I'm really good at not doing that.

I'm also pretty good at being loud because of my job, it requires me to speak very loudly.

My weaknesses as a public speaker are that I tend to get nervous with what I am speaking

about, I will often forget what I'm saying, forget what I'm talking about , even if it's

right in front of me.

I also tend to be unclear when I'm trying to convey information.

My sentences will get vague or casual and I can lose track of where I'm going with things.

I want to use this class to improve my ability at public speaking and I feel like this is

going to be a great way to do it.

Thank you very much.

Here is my notecard.

Yingluck will address public at appropriate time, Puea Thai party will carry on as before - Duration: 2:52.

Yingluck will address public at appropriate time, Puea Thai party will carry on as before: Statement

Thailands Puea Thai party on Tuesday (Aug 29) released its first statement since the disappearance of ousted premier Yingluck Shinawatra last week, saying that she would address the public at an appropriate time.

In the meantime, the party will continue fighting for democracy and human rights, it said.

The statement comes amid intense speculation over the whereabouts of Yingluck, who failed to turn up in court on Friday (Aug 25) to hear the verdict in a criminal negligence case that could have landed her in jail for up to 10 years.

Public prosecutors had alleged that she, as prime minister, had mismanaged the multi-billion dollar programme that paid rice farmers some 50 per cent above market prices for their paddy.

From now on, the party stands as a political institution for the people, it said.

All the mighty struggles of the party would make the party, members and supporters stronger and support each other more, it said. We will work for a peaceful society, good economy and for the benefit of the people.

We will carry out our obligations as before.. The rice subsidy scheme was a key campaign promise of the Puea Thai party, which won a landslide victory in the 2011 elections.

But it left state warehouses overflowing with paddy, and unseated the country as the worlds top rice exporter.

Yingluck, Thailands first female prime minister, was ousted by a court ruling in 2014 shortly before the rest of her government was topped by a military coup.

She was retroactively impeached in 2015, and had her assets seized as the military government tried to fine her some 35 billion baht for the rice scheme.

She is now said to be in Dubai, where her brother Thaksin Shinawatra - another former prime minister ousted by a coup - lives in exile.

The ruling junta, which kept her under tight surveillance in recent years, has denied allegations that it had helped Yingluck leave the country. Her imprisonment would have created a powerful martyr figure, and heightened political tensions in the divided Kingdom.

Public Health Medicinal Cannabis Bill 2017 - Duration: 2:37.

I support the Public Health (Medicinal Cannabis) Bill 2017.

I speak briefly of the case example of the former member for Newcastle, Bryce Gaudry,

who talked at his fifty-second wedding anniversary about love, mortality, pancreatic cancer and

cannabis oil.

The former member for Newcastle has had to deal with the devastating consequences of

pancreatic cancer and its treatment.

He has come out publicly to support the use of cannabis oil to highlight the need for

research into deadly pancreatic cancer, the lack of progress over the past 30 years in

increasing the survival rate, and developing effective treatments for dealing with its

symptoms.

He has a 3 per cent chance of surviving his cancer and he is using every possible pathway

to give him that chance.

Bryce Gaudry has used cannabis oil not as an advocate but because traditional medicines

have not helped him.

He had seven months of chemotherapy.

He was in constant pain and had an inability to eat.

He also suffered from nausea and projectile vomiting.

The use of cannabis oil stopped the vomiting and nausea and his pain decreased.

His wife, Barbara, is quoted as saying:

It would be wonderful if cannabis oil was available so that you knew exactly what you

were getting, and so you could have the confidence of going to your doctor and obtaining it for

system relief.

She said further:

It's given Bryce a quality of life that is so important to us.

What was available to help him didn't work.

It is also incumbent upon the health industry, pharmaceutical companies included, to address

the desperate needs of cancer patients to give them the best possible chance of survival.

It is heartening to see reputable institutions like the Calvary Mater Newcastle and the John

Hunter hospitals engaging in cannabis research to help patients with terminal cancer as well

as children with epilepsy.

I conclude with that very significant case study that is close to my heart.

I urge all members to support this important bill, which will go some way to helping people

in this terrible situation.
