Upstage will focus on recruiting talented people with outstanding capabilities in this recruitment. A special job called 'Heroes', a job area differentiated from general corporate recruitment, has been added. Heroes pioneers essential tasks in the AI era, and performs creative tasks that cannot be limited to existing jobs. From discovering AI talent, recruiting talent, team building to AI problem setting, core product development, business strategy building, and actual service production, we are familiar with the expressions of work, but we are faced with challenges that are different from those in the past when we work in the AI business. The jobs that they break through with the spirit of challenge are grouped together and named Heroes.


At the same time, it will also develop the world's best AI talent by recruiting AI global residency. Through this course, you can experience not only technology development opportunities with former Papago and Clova development leaders, but also the experience of solving various AI problems with Kaggle Grand Master. In addition, world-class AI research is possible in leading academic circles, including the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. The period is one year, and pair programming and mentoring are supported in a remote work format that allows telecommuting.


Upstage's talent recruitment process consists of online algorithm coding test, culture interview, technical interview, and executive interview after receiving the job application form on the company's recruitment website ( https://careers.upstage.ai ). In order to recruit excellent talents for each job group, it was composed of a job-centered selection process.


IN PARTICULAR, UPSTAGE INTRODUCED THE 'CULTURE INTERVIEW' IN LINE WITH THE COMPANY'S MISSION TO GROW TOGETHER WITH ITS MEMBERS. 'CULTURE INTERVIEW' IS AN IN-DEPTH CONVERSATION BETWEEN UPSTAGE AND APPLICANTS, AND IS AN ESSENTIAL PROCESS IN THE AI FIELD THAT REQUIRES CLOSER COMMUNICATION BETWEEN TEAM MEMBERS.
