Hyundai Motor Company announced Wednesday that it is accepting applications for the "Hi-Tech Talent Track," a conversion internship program designed to develop specialists in advanced vehicle diagnostics and repair.

The Hi-Tech Talent Track is Hyundai Motor's service engineer recruitment and training program, which selects engineering talent and develops candidates into experts with high-level diagnostic and repair capabilities.

Applications open at 9 a.m. Wednesday and close at 5 p.m. on Nov. 30 through Hyundai Motor's recruitment website. Candidates must hold or expect to hold a bachelor's degree, though applicants with strong credentials in vehicle maintenance or diagnostics — such as relevant certifications — may apply regardless of degree status.

The selection process consists of a document screening, an aptitude test and interviews. Candidates who pass the first interview will take part in a three-week internship beginning in February 2027, covering foundational technical education, service engineer role training and on-site practice at a Hi-Tech Center. Those who clear the second interview and receive a final offer will join as full-time employees in the second quarter of 2027, working at one of 22 Hi-Tech Centers nationwide.

Hyundai Motor plans to provide final hires with hands-on field training as well as specialized instruction in advanced technologies, including vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communications and noise, vibration and harshness (NVH). Top performers identified during the training and practical phases will receive broad career development opportunities to grow as technical experts in the global mobility market.

Hyundai Motor will also hold online recruitment briefings and mock interviews on Nov. 25 and 26 for job seekers interested in the Hi-Tech Talent Track. Participants can speak with current employees to learn details about the hiring process and job responsibilities, and strong performance in the mock interview can earn bonus points in the document screening stage. Registration is open through Nov. 19 on the recruitment website.

"In the era of future mobility, the role of service engineers is expanding beyond simple vehicle maintenance — they are becoming technical specialists who understand advanced technologies and solve complex problems," a Hyundai Motor official said. "Through the Hi-Tech Talent Track, we will continue to identify talented individuals with advanced technical skills and support their growth into key figures who will lead the future of the service sector."
