Defying the ongoing wave of layoffs in the global tech industry, Samsung has announced plans to hire over 10,000 employees in 2025.

This hiring spree spans across 16 of its affiliates, including Samsung Electronics, Samsung Display, Samsung SDI, and Samsung Biologics.

The initiative underscores Samsung’s confidence in its growth trajectory and its commitment to investing in talent, even as other tech giants scale back their workforce.

Samsung Recruitment Drive Details

Samsung’s recruitment process for 2025 has already commenced, with applications open from March 10 to March 17 through the company’s official career portal.

The selection process includes an online Global Samsung Aptitude Test (GSAT) in April, followed by interviews in May and medical evaluations.

This structured approach ensures that the company attracts top-tier talent to support its ambitious goals.

The hiring push is part of Samsung’s broader strategy to onboard 80,000 employees over five years, focusing on key growth sectors such as semiconductors, biotechnology, and next-generation information and communication technology (ICT).

Samsung Electronics, the largest subsidiary, alone aims to recruit over 10,000 employees this year, reflecting its pivotal role in the group’s expansion plans.

Contrasting Industry Trends and Strategic Vision

Samsung’s hiring spree stands in stark contrast to the widespread layoffs in the tech industry.

Companies like Meta, Intel, and HP have announced significant job cuts in recent months, citing economic pressures, overhiring during the pandemic, and a shift towards AI-driven operations.

For instance, Meta recently laid off 3,600 employees, while Intel cut 15,000 jobs last year.

These layoffs highlight the challenges faced by the tech sector, making Samsung’s decision to expand its workforce even more noteworthy.

Under the leadership of Chairman Lee Jae-yong, Samsung has been steadfast in its commitment to innovation and growth.

The company’s five-year hiring plan, announced in 2022, aims to strengthen its capabilities in cutting-edge technologies and maintain its competitive edge in the global market.

By investing in talent, Samsung is positioning itself as a leader in sectors that are expected to drive future economic growth.

Samsung Workforce Expansion and Impact

Samsung’s workforce has been steadily growing over the years.

Since 2018, the domestic employee count at Samsung Electronics has increased by more than 24%, reaching 128,169 by mid-2024.

This trend reflects the company’s focus on building a robust talent pool to support its operations and innovation efforts.

The hiring initiative is expected to have a positive impact on the job market, providing opportunities for skilled professionals in various fields.

It also reinforces Samsung’s reputation as an employer of choice, offering a dynamic work environment and opportunities for career growth.

While Samsung’s hiring plans are ambitious, they come with their own set of challenges.

The company must navigate a competitive talent market and ensure that its recruitment efforts align with its long-term strategic goals.

Additionally, Samsung’s decision to expand its workforce amid global layoffs could set a precedent for other companies, encouraging them to invest in talent despite economic uncertainties.
