When I read an article about high school students who succeeded in business at a so very young age, inserted in a newspaper column with the headline High School Student Venture Start-up #1 or High School Student CEO, such talk seems to be from another world.

I wonder what the difference between myself and those who deserve a high regard on one hand. Though the majority lacked experience due to such a very young age, they realized things that they are eager to do by means of a clear goal consciousness much earlier than others.

This is the one secret which can educate people about his success story with more comfortable features than others. However, they are striving ceaselessly and running at this juncture too.

In recent years, the biggest headache in our society is young people's unemployment. The press media report on young people's unemployment every day. Even in movies and dramas, in stories where young people talk about subjects that are important to them, the theme appears time after time.

After these out-and-out libertines graduate university in harmony, they receive extracurricular work for employment, go abroad for language study and training, and strive to acquire a certificate of qualification. Though they go through second examinee times again like this, the windowsill for employment is still high for them.

Nevertheless, the dreams of young people and parents' passion for their children to graduate from university are not cooling down. Quick-witted people know that just a diploma from a good university don't guarantee employment and success.

Yet still for our country, university is not a focal point for an individual, but an entire family's dream. In more advanced countries it is different. Individual traits and the personal world are more important for them. There is not any country in the world population that is like Korea in the sense that Seoul is so crowded because university or education institutions are concentrated in the city.

Hence, such uniformity must be changed. To pursue diversity and to recognize diverse values are a road to which we should go in an era of internationalization and informatization.

Selecting a specialty is a big choice

As the global competition age is introduced in recent years, big changes happened for corporate talent employment systems too. The special manpower preference phenomenon which adopts necessary manpower at ordinary times was universalized, rather than rightly large-sized public employment.

Currently, a considerable number of large companies select necessary manpower by their duties. This means that a considerable number of large corporations pick out prepared talent who has equipped their ability to be able to carry out duties by each corporation. What is important above everything else is that each individual designs his or her own course in advance and must accumulate their competitiveness in their own special field through University.

It is still reported that a raft of new students suffer from conflict due to their course of study for which they applied without rhyme or reason.

A certain university's statistics that show that 40% of new students suffer from such a conflict with their course of study in the freshman year, is a disproof to this.

To select a course of study means to select a lifelong friend. Therefore it is wise to select one's own specialty in consideration of one's own occupation, that is, a job he himself is eager to keep close to him.

This is actually a shortcut which can pass a gate of employment more quickly than others at once. If job-seeker decides their specialty with consideration for what job society will need, I believe that he can grow as a real human resource in the upcoming century.
