Abstract |
Securing a young population is important for regional development, therefore it is necessary to understand the movement patterns of young
people. The main causes of young population movement are college admissions and job options; occupational mobility of college graduates
are closely related to regional development. Therefore, this study aims to analyze the employment movement between regions of college
graduates. The movement types of college graduates were divided into regional completion type, residual type, return type, leakage type, and
flow type; the regions were divided into Seoul metropolitan area (SMA), Seoul area, Gyeonggi area, Chungcheong area, Jeolla area,
Gyeongsang area, Gangwon area, and Jeju area. The 2009-2018 graduate occupational mobility survey (GOMS) data provided by the Korea
Employment Information Service was used, and a descriptive analysis was performed on the movement of college graduates between regions
during this period. The analysis results revealed that the SMA, Jeolla area, Gyeongsang area, and Jeju area had high rates of college
admissions and employment in their hometown. The proportion of movement from other regions to the SMA for college entrance and
employment increased. Gyeonggi, Jeju, and Jeolla areas showed high rates of college admissions and employment in their hometown, but the
rate of leakage to other regions upon college graduation increased. Chungcheong and Gangwon areas had a high rate of inflow from other
areas and moved back to other areas or hometowns upon college graduation. In conclusion, the movement of college graduates was analyzed
to show various patterns by region. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the types of youth movement in each region and to promote
regional development policies based on these. |
