    - The First Step to Finding a Happy Job / Lee Seulgi, gap-year participant (gapper)


    ''The First Step to Finding a Happy Job'' course review interview
    Taking the first step on a once-daunting path.


    Name: Lee Seulgi



    Q.What prompted you to participate in the course?
    I needed to get a job but felt lost because I didn''t know what kind of work I wanted to do; I happened to find out about this program and decided to join.
     



    Q.Which class content during the course impressed you the most?
    Every piece of information we learned from the instructor in each class was impressive: the importance of self-analysis, information on the latest industry trends like startups, convergence, and e-learning, and employment methods other than public recruitment — all the classes felt fresh and helpful.



     
    Q.What do you think are the strengths or special features of this course?
    I think it''s the wealth of information.



      
    Q.What was lacking in the course?
    Among the books the instructor recommended in the last class was ''I Don''t Even Know Myself~''. If that book had been assigned as homework or recommended during the course period, I think I would have been able to participate more actively in class.



      
    Q.Who would you highly recommend ''The First Step to Finding a Happy Job'' to?
    Recommended for students who need to get a job but feel overwhelmed about where to start.
