In this blog post, we will give you specific tips on how to structure a one-minute self-introduction that will catch the attention of recruiters.

 

Research and Development Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
If I am hired by your company, I would like to utilize my research skills and areas of interest to develop processed foods with therapeutic effects. My belief that health can be maintained through food rather than medication was proven by case studies and research results on food therapy that I encountered during my undergraduate studies. While conducting culture research for the development of supplements as an undergraduate researcher, I discovered my aptitude and talent, which led me to pursue a career in food development. With my experience and interest in food therapy based on traditional Korean medicine and natural healing, I wanted to develop products that would meet the needs of a wide range of people.
I believe that while the food market has focused on delicious and new foods, the time has come to introduce healthy processed foods for a healthy life. In particular, I am most interested in food development and planning through traditional Korean processing and food processing. Research on traditional processed food development, which determines the competitiveness of companies and, furthermore, the competitiveness of the country, is my vision that I have cherished throughout my undergraduate studies.
I would like to contribute to the growth of your company by developing “healing processed foods” through the technical and academic combination of health foods and processed foods, and become a researcher who leads the new food market. In addition, with my calm and meticulous personality, tenacity, and patience, I will grow into a talented individual who will capture the global market at your company.
Thank you very much.

 

 

Sales Management Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
Influenced by my parents, I grew up believing that social skills and a challenging spirit are important values. Growing up as the eldest son in a large family, I developed a strong sense of responsibility, which is one of my strengths. Throughout my school days, I was active as a leader in groups and organizations, which taught me the importance of communication, and this has also become one of my strengths. As a leader, sincerity and responsibility were essential skills, which naturally became my competitive advantages. Therefore, I am confident in recommending myself as a candidate who possesses the leadership and sense of responsibility that your company values in its employees.
I majored in business administration and had a keen interest in marketing and sales. I believed that my proactive and positive personality, leadership, and communication skills would enable me to achieve good results in sales. My academic achievements, language skills, communication skills, and problem-solving skills, which I have acquired through my sincerity, are not only necessary for my job, but also lead to my personal growth and self-reflection, and are therefore my unchanging competitive advantages. In particular, I believe that sales management is a position where I can immediately see the results of my hard work and efforts, based on my pride in your company. I believe that this position is a good fit for my personality, as I am able to recognize problems quickly and gain motivation from seeing results and achievements, which is why I decided to apply to your company.

Management Support Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
I was raised by parents who valued sincerity and responsibility. My parents believed that the biggest problem was not poor academic performance or getting into trouble, but rather a lack of sincerity, and they taught me strictly. Thanks to them, I have become a person who is responsible and able to accomplish tasks in a planned manner. I have a lively and positive personality, but I also tend to be cautious, which carries over into my relationships with others, and I strive to maintain long-lasting relationships.
I am meticulous and detail-oriented, and I have a unique talent for organizing and quickly recognizing various issues. In addition, I have had many opportunities to experience leadership because I have maintained good relationships with my colleagues. After entering university, I worked as a teaching assistant to help with departmental administrative tasks. In particular, I developed the habit of keeping records so as not to make mistakes or overlook important matters, which had a positive effect on my work. In addition, I focused on improving my language skills to develop abilities suitable for the era of globalization, and I tried to make friends from different cultures through active club activities. In particular, through my foreign friends, I was able to learn not only languages but also about different cultures and communication.
I would like to gain a lot of experience in human resources and accounting. This is because I believe that these are the core tasks of the management support team, which is the foundation of corporate competitiveness and fulfills the fundamental mission of a company, which is to generate profits. Although I have acquired knowledge in my major through my studies, I do not have any practical work experience, so I would like to learn the job thoroughly through this internship. I will make the most of this internship as a valuable experience and look forward to working as an employee, demonstrating my adaptability and aptitude. I have a dream of becoming a key leader at your company and leading the international market, and I will work tirelessly to achieve that dream.
Thank you very much.

 

 

Overseas Sales Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
I was born as the eldest daughter of a father who runs a small business and a mother who is a teacher, and I grew up without any shortages. However, my self-made father taught me that I should avoid “luck without effort” at all costs, and told me to become an independent person who makes decisions on my own rather than being dependent on others. Thanks to my parents’ strict upbringing, I studied hard and worked part-time jobs without their help during college.
I worked at convenience stores, cafes, restaurants, and clothing stores, where I met many different people and learned how to communicate with them. As I became more comfortable interacting with people, I was able to save enough money to send my parents on a trip and go on a working holiday during my junior year of college. Although my goal was to earn money, I believe that these experiences, which gave me the courage, independence, and strong will to live my 20s, will be an asset in your overseas sales department.
In particular, while on a working holiday in Australia, I worked at DOME, a local coffee shop, and became deeply interested in coffee, which led me to study it. DOME is the largest franchise café in Western Australia, and after completing a training course and passing an exam, I was awarded a barista certificate. I passed the English-language training and exam and proudly obtained my barista certificate. After returning to South Korea, I continued to pursue my interest in coffee and obtained a barista certificate from the Korea Coffee Association. I have now also obtained a Q Grader (coffee taster) certificate.
I would like to work in overseas sales/corporate management at your company. Ultimately, my goal is to achieve the globalization of Korean coffee culture through your company. I have no doubt that your company will be able to showcase Korean coffee culture to the world. I would like to prove that the most Korean things can become global with your company. Thank you very much.

 

 

Food and Beverage Industry Overseas Sales Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
My strength is that I have my own way of overcoming failure. This is a skill I have acquired through numerous challenges and failures. When I fail, I don’t dwell on my failure, but rather overcome it by researching ways to speed up my next challenge and success. This ability has allowed me to continue learning new things and developing new talents. In particular, I have actively worked to improve my language skills and apply them in practice, and since my school days, I have demonstrated leadership and the ability to communicate positively with others. Based on these skills, another strength of mine is my positive attitude toward people and work. I would like to continue to grow and demonstrate these skills at your company.
I have a cheerful and proactive personality, and I enjoy interacting with people and exercising leadership. I also understand the importance of continuous self-improvement and enjoy the process of learning new things, so I believe that my diverse qualities and abilities make me well-suited for a sales position that generates profits. In particular, it was my experience in the Philippines during a language study abroad program that drew my attention to overseas sales. Seeing the growth momentum of the Asian market, including the Philippines, and experiencing the culture, I decided to become an overseas sales specialist who would pioneer and grow these new markets. So, I learned local business conversation in Southeast Asia as well as English conversation, and I also worked part-time at a Korean company’s Philippine subsidiary.
If I join your company, I hope to gain practical work experience, quickly fill in the gaps in my knowledge, and demonstrate my hidden talents. With challenge, learning, and passion as my core values, I will grow as a member of your company who is not afraid of growth and change. I hope you will appreciate my positivity, ability to adapt to organizations, and versatility as a sales professional. Thank you very much.
Thank you.

 

 

Public Relations and Marketing Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
My parents always wanted me to grow up to be someone who can clearly express my opinions and speak up for what I believe is right, and I have strived to live up to their expectations. Since I was young, I have been interested in communicating with others based on sound values, and as a result, I naturally took on leadership roles, such as serving as the president of my high school student council and representing various organizations in college. In addition, while performing my duties as a leader, I was able to develop the ability to express my opinions in a logical manner, persuade others, and gain their trust. I believe that these skills will play an important role in public relations and marketing.
My strengths in the field of public relations and marketing are my values and pride in public relations and marketing. I believe that public relations and marketing is the process of discovering the infinite value of a product or service. Without love and pride for the product or service, it is impossible to effectively persuade customers. I am confident in my ability to persuade customers through the communication skills and trust I have built up since childhood. I am also confident in my ability to create new value that goes beyond existing value with love and pride for the product or service.
The ability to turn potential into value and the belief that it is possible are what make a marketing professional. I am confident that I possess these qualities and that I can achieve high performance through reliable public relations and marketing. With this confidence, I will become a key member of your company, enhancing its value within your vision.
Thank you very much.

 

 

Food and Beverage Industry (Marketing) Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
I was raised by my mother, who taught me that I should treat people with sincerity and gratitude. I learned that there is more to learn from people than from school, and under her guidance, I naturally learned how to live by meeting and interacting with people.
I majored in marketing at university and also studied psychology and business administration to learn more effective marketing techniques. In addition, since I learned from a young age that I need to interact with people in order to live, I tried to apply that lesson to my marketing studies. So, I rented a small delivery truck with a friend and started a “mobile mini cafe.” That’s how I learned marketing through hands-on experience.
I believe that your company’s enterprising corporate culture is a good fit for me. I sincerely hope to have the opportunity to contribute to your marketing efforts with the knowledge I have gained through hands-on experience. I will work to solidify your brand value as a company that is both Korean and global by observing customer reactions to your products.
Thank you.

I am applying for this position because I want to create a new future for your company with the organizational integration and compromise skills I have gained through my experience as a leader.
I majored in business administration and received scholarships throughout my college career. I am also clear in my expressions and have strong drive, which has earned me the trust of my classmates, and I have gained a wealth of experience through various extracurricular activities. I am confident that my basic computer skills, administrative experience gained through student council activities, and knowledge related to my major are second to none. In addition, my challenging nature and leadership skills will be a great asset to the company.

Food and Beverage Marketing Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
My school days can be described as a race toward creativity. As an advertising and public relations major, the word I heard most often was “creative.” My desire for new and creative things and to do things that others had not done before was born from that word. So I participated in various contests and experienced many failures. Then I decided to participate in a contest for a campaign to promote love for rural areas, and in line with the purpose of the contest, I decided to compete with a video, photos, and a line of copywriting that would touch people’s hearts. The concept of reviving something familiar that had been forgotten struck a chord with the judges, and I won first place.
With coffee shops overflowing and foreign brands flooding the market in Korea, the key to your company’s survival may lie in a line of copy that resonates with your customers. I want to create marketing that clearly reveals your company’s identity. I love your company, a Korean brand, more than anyone else. In particular, I want to conduct marketing that conveys the spirit of being “number one” to customers, from Korea’s first barista, Korea’s first coffee farm owner, and Korea’s first overseas sales team member to open a branch in China.
Upon joining the company, I will conduct a detailed analysis of all of your company’s publicity, advertising, promotional materials, events, and promotions to date, as well as a thorough analysis of your competitors’ publicity strategies and current status. In this way, I will become a passionate marketer who knows how to market your company’s coffee in the best possible way. I hope you will give me the opportunity to share my unique ideas as a new marketer.
Thank you very much.

 

 

Marketing Self-Introduction

Hello, my name is ○○○.
“Even if I don’t know what you choose, you will surely choose what you think is best.” This is what my father always told me, and these words made me feel loved and trusted by my family, which in turn made me feel a strong sense of responsibility in everything I do. Under my father’s guidance, who taught me to be confident in my choices and have a sense of purpose, I developed a value system that encourages me to always try new things. Furthermore, my parents’ strong trust and love gave me self-esteem, which allowed me to interact with others with confidence and gain their trust.
While attending university, I enjoyed taking on creative and challenging tasks, so I joined an advertising club. As it was a joint club, I was able to meet people from various universities and develop my social skills. My main activities in the club were applying for contests and participating in social activities. In particular, I developed my marketing skills and strengthened my communication and empathy skills by providing free marketing support and educational services to self-employed people in difficult circumstances, utilizing my major knowledge. In addition, through my active club activities, I was elected club president and exercised my leadership skills, earning the strong trust of the members.
Through my activities in the advertising club, I discovered my competitiveness in the field of marketing and realized that I could enjoy my work. I also thought deeply about whether I could take pride in the company I work for, which led me to apply to your company. Your company’s corporate mindset of promoting the value of reasonably priced coffee and building close relationships with customers in order to compete with large coffee franchises is consistent with my understanding of the true meaning of marketing. I will work diligently in marketing to help your company become a global brand with pride in your company. Thank you very much.
I look forward to working with you.
