This paper pays attention to the recent increase of young Koreans working in the low-skilled service sector in Singapore. Such rapid increase largely results from the Korean government's initiatives to promote labour migration of young people and the concurrent proliferation of migration agencies, against the background of growing youth unemployment in South Korea. By exploring the motivations and trajectories of young people's labour migration to Singapore, this study examines to what extent they think their expectations have been met and how they interpret their migration and work experiences. There has been little research that examines the actual voices of young migrants as part of migration studies, whilst the majority of previous research focuses on the evaluation of government support programmes based on job matching rates, surveys of participant satisfaction and etc. Young people who went to Singapore to improve their English language skills and qualifications for future employment in Korea have become frustrated due to low-skilled service jobs that consist of low pay and high labour intensity. Their credentials are devalued and they experience deskilling through this migration process. Most of them were discontent with the Korean migration agencies they used and critical about programmes offered by government institutions and universities/colleges. Despite being subject to deskilling, they did try to actively cope or resist this situation. This study focuses on the various ways these migrants attempted to manage the gap between their initial expectations and reality. It also demonstrates how these migrants interpreted their work experiences after returning to Korea: whilst most of them did not cash off their Singapore work experience for a decent job after returning to Korea, they did not define their experience as a complete failure. Adding to cultural, social capital they gained through this experience, they acquired 'mobility capital' which includes confidence, the desire to move, and capacity to control one's own movement.

Recently youth unemployment has long remained a nagging problem in Korea, contributing to aggravating the economy as well as the society. As an alternative solution to this problem overseas employment has been encouraged by the government who started the "K-Move" program in 2013 by integrating existing overseas employment, internship, service, and entrepreneurship support programs administered by several governmental ministries. However, employment rate of overseas job seekers was only 24.5% in 2018. This study aimed to recommend strategic directions for increasing the overseas employment rate through a questionnaire survey of the overseas employed. The factual survey results showed the following four strategic directions. First, job seekers should set clear career goals for overseas employment. Second, overseas job seekers should thoroughly prepare in advance in terms of language and related certificates. Third, IT infrastructure for offering information on overseas employment should be improved and upgraded. And, fourth, overseas employment strategies should be tailored to the specific regional or national environment. These strategic directions are expected to be of great help to overseas job seekers as well as government policymakers for formulating and implementing overseas employment support programs.

외환위기 이후 기업의 신규채용의 감소와 함께 청년실업 특히 대졸 청년실업이 심각한 사회문제가 되고 있다. 많은 수의 대학생들이 취업난 속에서 본연의 전공 교육과정보다는 취업준비에만 열을 올리거나, 해외 연수나 공무원 시험 등의 준비를 이유로 대학졸업까지 미루는 실정이다. 또한 취업이 잘 되는 학과로의 편중지원, 이공계 기피현상 등 다양한 문제점을 양산하고 있다. 올해 기업의 신규채용이 다시 줄어드는 추세로 돌아서 취업 상황은 더욱 악화될 것으로 전망되는 가운데, 이제 국가차원의 청년실업 대책이 강구되어야 한다고 생각된다. 여기서는 청년실업의 원인을 분석해 보고, 이에 대한 대책방안을 모색해 보기로 한다.

본 연구는 현재까지 주먹구구식, 각 부처별로 평가가 이루어져 왔던 해외취업사업을 통계적, 경영학적 기법을 적용하여 객관적으로 평가할 수 있는 방법에 대해 제안하고자 한다. 본 연구결과를 통해 국가적 차원에서 새로운 정책 발굴의 여지가 많은 청년층 국가 간 교류사업 즉 해외취업사업에 보다 조직적이고 체계적인 틀을 제시할 수 있는 전략을 제공한다. 해외취업사업은 국가 중요 정책사업이면서 형태가 구축되지 않은 비표준 정책으로 정책의 완성을 위해 현재 이루어졌던 사업에 관련된 과거 데이터를 기반으로 사업의 미래방향에 대해 제시할 수 있을 것으로 판단한다.

As the society progresses to a knowledge economy, global demand is rapidly increasing in many fields of society. In line with this, interest in globalization is also increasing in universities. Accordingly, students who have graduated from universities are making efforts to find employment in Korea, but the barriers to entry for employment are high due to the high specifications and qualifications of domestic companies, so the government, local governments, and universities are putting a lot of effort into global overseas employment. This study is a training course design for the K-MOVE project aimed at employment in Japanese IT companies. To design this curriculum, we conduct a demand survey of recruiting companies and students, and draw a curriculum based on the results. Then, the effective link between regular subjects and K-MOVE education will be described. This study can be a useful resource for education experts planning overseas employment in the Japanese IT field.

저출산으로 경제활동인구가 감소했는데도 청년실업자가 늘어난 나라는 한국, 이탈리아, 그리스인데 이는 OECD국가 중 유일하다. OECD 청년고용률은 2009년 40.5%에서 2019년 43.5%로 증가했지만 순위는 30위에서 32위로 하락했다. 코로나19사태로 매출이 감소한 국내 301개사는 채용을 미루거나 포기한 비율이 전체 50.5%애 이르면서 앞으로 청년 취업 상황을 악화시킬 것으로 보인다. 양질의 일자리가 증가하면 이를 통해 개인은 경쟁력을 확보하게 되고 산업은 고급 인력을 바탕으로 성장구조를 만든다. 따라서 민간과 정부는 창업을 적극적으로 독려하고 활성화 시킬 필요가 있다. 청년창업대상자를 중심으로 진행하는 사업은 중소벤처기업부의 청소년 비즈쿨 사업과 창업에듀, K-스타트업, 청년창업사관학교, 학생창업유망팀 300등이 있다. 그러나 대부분의 지원 사업이 초기창업단계에 지원역량이 강화되어 있고 공급자 위주로 창업지원 사업을 운영하다보니 창업 성과는 미미하다. 통계청 자료에 의하면 20대는 생계유지에 대한 문제와 창업자금으로 인해 창업을 망설이고 30대는 가족을 돌보는 것에 대한 부담감과 기업가에 대한 부정적인 인식으로 창업을 기피 하는데 이는 40대이상 다른 연령층보다 높게 나타났다. 본 연구는 개인적, 환경적 요인이 연령에 따라 창업의지에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 비교분석하여 일자리 활성화를 위한 정부의 청년창업지원대책 기초자료에 도움이 되고자 한다. 청년창업대상자의 금전에 대한 태도, 창업역량, 성공한 롤모델, SNS 활용능력, 창업지원정책, 사회적지지, 인적네트워크, 해외시장 관심도가 창업의지에 어떤 상관 관계를 갖는지 비교연구를 진행하고자 한다. 10대의 경우 취업과 창업을 고민하는 특성화고등학생 150명, 20대 150명, 30대 150명으로 총 450명의 데이터를 가지고 SPSS 23을 통해 다중회귀분석을 진행하고 원인을 비교해 앞으로의 정책이 창업을 독려하고 지속력을 갖기 위한 방향으로 시사점을 제안한다.
