For the research participants, the age of the young job seekers was set at 19 to 35 years old, and a total of 15 people were selected, 2 to 5 for each job category. In-depth interviews were conducted with them, and through analysis, 7 types of motivation to participate in vocational training, job preparation activities by job type, and 4 types of employment plans based on long and short term specificity were derived. The main conclusions of this study are: First, there were 7 types of motivation to participate in vocational training among young job seekers. ①To get a job in a related field due to the company being closed due to Corona19, ②to find a job that suits one's aptitude because the company's job is not suitable, ③to get a professional job because there is no future in repetitive work, ④because of a generation gap they want to try something else because work communication is not working and recruitment practices are unreasonable, ⑤they want to have a feasible job after failing the appointment test, ⑥they want to learn something that matches their aptitude and talent because their majors don’t match university majors, ⑦they like their majors in college, but participated in vocational training for stable economic activities. Second, the job preparation activities of young job seekers were different depending on the training field. In the field of inforation and communication, individual and team projects were carried out, in the field of design, portfolios and contests were prepared, in the field of architecture and machinery, obtaining licenses was a top priority, and standardized portfolios made of practice drawings were produced. In the field of electricity, the first priority was to obtain a license to prepare for employment. Third, the establishment of employment plans by young job seekers was found to be 4 types depending on the specificity of the long and short term. Participants who have a long-term plan for employment, such as designing a career development roadmap, who have specifically planned the type of company and detailed job duties they want to work immediately after graduation, who want to quickly find a job at a company in a related field, but are uncertain about what they will do in detail, Those who want to quickly get a job in a related field, but are uncertain about which company to work for. The significance of this study is to confirm that vocational training is being used as an alternative method of regular school education for young job seekers, and to organically link college education and vocational training (accreditation bank system, contract department, etc.) to raise the need.
