Air Korea starts hiring campaign
Air Korea, Korean Air`s low-priced airline, is starting its recruitment campaign, company officials said yesterday.
After being granted an airline operating license from the Ministry of Land, Transportation and Maritime Affairs on April 7, the company has began recruiting employees through its website.
The air carrier plans to hire more than 100 new and experienced employees for its marketing, human resources and finance divisions. Applications will be accepted until April 20.
Company officials said pilots, engineers and flight attendants will come mainly from Korean Air and it will employ more flight attendants in June or July.
Air Korea plans to launch its first flight between Gimpo and Jeju Island in early July and will expand services to between Busan, Jeju Island and Gimpo by 2009.
Short-distance international routs to Japan, China and Southeast Asia are to be launched by 2010, company officials said, adding that JAL Express, Japan Airline`s low-fare airline, is launching its first flight to Korea next year. "With experienced core staff from Korean Air and new employees, Air Korea will try hard to become a successful low-fare air carrier," an Air Korea official said.
