4 former Hana Bank officials convicted for recruitment scandal in South Korea

SEOUL – Four former Hana Bank officials have been found guilty by the Supreme Court of Korea for manipulating recruitment results in favour of graduates from certain schools and those recommended by high-ranking bank officials or financial authorities.

Song’s successor, Kang, was sentenced to eight months in prison, suspended for two years, and a 1 million won fine. Hana Bank, one of the biggest South Korean banks, was accused of fabricating applicants’ evaluation scores during the recruitment process since the suspicion was first raised in 2018 by Ms Sim Sang-jung of the Justice Party.

It had also replaced two female finalists with two male candidates who had lower scores, but came recommended.
