CJ Olive Young招聘引入Krafton的AI评估工具并举办AI黑客松

CJ Olive Young announced on the 21st that it will conduct open recruitment for experienced developers and introduce a new artificial intelligence (AI) task round in the hiring process.
Until now, Olive Young has used a "live coding" round requiring candidates to implement code in real time within a set period when hiring for developer positions. But for this recruitment aimed at discovering AI talent, the company will introduce a new "AI task" round. The move aims to more closely verify applicants' ability to use AI, as "AI literacy" — understanding and utilizing AI — and "AI native" capabilities, meaning solving problems together with AI, have emerged as core competitive strengths.
Recruitment runs from the 20th of this month to the 9th of next month, targeting three positions: commerce platform engineer, core platform engineer, and AI recommendation system engineer. Applicants must have at least two years of relevant experience. The process consists of document screening, an AI task, a first-round interview, an online personality test, and a second-round interview, in that order.
The AI task round will use "Cofa-Probe," a recruitment and evaluation solution developed by Krafton. Olive Young plans to comprehensively evaluate the entire process — not only the final output submitted by candidates but also how they define the problem, how they utilize AI and write prompts, their iterative improvement process, and how they verify results.
To discover and cultivate AI talent, Olive Young will also hold the "Krafton × Olive Young AI Hackathon," organized in collaboration with Krafton, on the 30th. Participants must solve AI tasks presented separately by the two companies within a time limit and submit their results. Olive Young plans to present tasks based on real distribution-field problems that combine customers, products, and data. Winners will receive a total of 10 million won in prize money, and those who place in the Olive Young task will also be given the benefit of passing the document screening stage of this developer open recruitment.
"As the paradigm of the development environment has changed, we have proactively changed the way we discover talent to match it," an Olive Young official said. "Through the newly introduced AI task round, we will find 'AI native' talent and lead innovation in retail tech."
