Q1. 간단한 본인소개 부탁드립니다

My name is Jayden Cho. I am a Planning and Sponsorship Senior Manager in the Chamber’s Events Team. Prior to working at the BCCK, I was in the hospitality industry for a decade, principally, in the food and beverage and banquet and events area. I majored in Architecture and hospitality management.

Q2. 담당하고 계신 업무와 일과를 소개해 주세요

My job is to  ideate, organise and execute all BCCK events. Ranging from events which are focused on encouraging networking, to those which are more centred on the provision of content to attendees, I liaise with other Chamber to teams to ensure that we hold the best events in the city!

Q3. 담당하시는 업무의 가장 큰 매력은?

The most satisfying aspect of my role is seeing the realisation of my ideas. As a visual person who studied architectural design, I really enjoy the formulation of an event as an empty space becomes the platform for people to meet, engage and do business.

Q4. 해당업무를 수행하는 데 가장 필요한 역량은 무엇인가요?

In order to be successful in this role, you need to have a positive mindset. I always work by the motto, ‘Plan for the worst, but hope for the best’.

Q5. 이 기업에 입사하기로 선택한 이유는?

The BCCK is a small organisation which does a wide range of activities and it was the chance to try these different things which brought me to the Chamber. I am able to organise lots of different events, meet a diverse set of companies and work alongside a variety of people which I enjoy doing.

Q6. 사내문화와 부서 분위기는 어떤가요?

The company has a fast-paced and dynamic atmosphere. Decision-making within projects is vertically integrated but the organisation itself if very horizontal in its structure. The staff are young and talented in the area they are in and we learn a lot from each other.

Q7. 내가 입사할 수 있었던 비결은?

My background in the hospitality and events area was very helpful in entering the Chamber as I had experience in running an event as a host. In addition, my personal and educational connection to the UK helped to provide a link to the organisation as well.

Q8. 이력서나 면접준비를 하고 있는 예비지원자들에게 줄 수 있는 Tip 은?

Keep an open-minded attitude and take every opportunity to learn!

Working at the BCCK provides more than just another line in your CV. The connections and experiences you amass will help you advance your career in the direction you want. I think that my time spent at the Chamber could lead to me taking on a more marketing and sales role in the future.

Q10. 마지막으로 이 직무에 도전하고 있는 취준생들에게 해 주고 싶은 말은?

The real world of business is challenging and as such, you need to be committed and hard working to be able to achieve what you want and be a success!
