AI and robotics specialists are a key focus. Posco Holdings is seeking researchers in robot perception and control, while Posco and Posco DX are recruiting talent to drive AI transformation across manufacturing sites and office operations.

Posco has also created a dedicated AI engineer category for hires who will work on factory automation and workplace innovation.

The hiring campaign supports Posco Groupโ€™s โ€œTriple-Coreโ€ strategy unveiled in July, which reorganizes its portfolio around industrial, strategic and energy resources. The group aims to reinforce its position as Koreaโ€™s leading supplier of critical resources by securing talent in key growth fields.

Applications are open through Sept. 16 on Poscoโ€™s recruitment website. The group will also hold online and offline recruiting events, including career counseling sessions with current employees.

Volkswagen approves large-scale restructuring, including 50,000 additional layoffs

Volkswagen Group's supervisory board unanimously approved the '2030 Future Plan', which includes reducing 50,000 employees. As European production capacity exceeds demand by 500,000 units, it has been determined that it is impossible to secure future production at plants in Emden, Zwickau, Hanover, and Neckarsulm, and plans are to discontinue approximately half of the models by 2035. This measure is in addition to the 50,000 job cuts that have been in place since 2024, and is a response to the blow caused by intensifying competition in China, U.S. tariffs, and sluggish sales in Europe.
