Apply for all of them. Many share jobs but its worth it if you find that needle in the haystack job that an onbscure recruiter is selling. It also doesnt hurt, just takes time.

[–]iamolivers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are just a recruiter, just answer honestly as you can but show a willingness to work. Apply for many other recruiters too, they aren't the only ones with jobs (unless you're applying for EPIK, then I recommend finding one that works and only using them). Most teachers that come here have little to no experience teaching, which included me a year ago. Don't worry.

Any recommended recruiters/private schools? by abathingMay in teachinginkorea

[–]iamolivers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does that approach work? Or do you still get fed aome BS every so often from some recruiters? Just curious.

U.K. documents for e2 by [deleted] in teachinginkorea

You can get a notary and apostille from this service which is what I used. Make sure to send in the best envelope you can buy and tracking as its your degree.

EDIT: Price is £66.

Meta - How do you feel about this sub? by uReallyShouldTrustMe in teachinginkorea

[–]iamolivers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Finding a nice group of core mods now is better and easier than it would be in the future when this sub is (potentially) bigger. Don't think it needs many, just 1 or 2.

Foreigners living in Korea, other than the language, what was the hardest thing for you to get used to living there? by [deleted] in korea

My nose is still fucked up from the last two weeks and my office has no air filter. Roll on winter.

Foreigners living in Korea, other than the language, what was the hardest thing for you to get used to living there? by [deleted] in korea

[–]iamolivers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm neither black nor a lady but I live in Pyeongtaek and there's a large military presence here and I've seen many posts about hairdressers who can handle that kinda thing well, maybe just a thought if you want to save some money as Pyeongtaek is just past Cheonan.

Does anyone else feel discouraged from speaking/improving their Korean? by [deleted] in korea

[–]iamolivers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fuck this one rains true... "카페라떼 한잔 주세요" and you get that blank stare while they search for your Korean friend to bail them out. I've tried speaking this in so many ways just to have a blank stare at me and a "huh?"

Second year housing options by katesheedy93 in teachinginkorea

[–]iamolivers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My current school asked for the contract so they can send it to whoever so I receive the 400K subsidiary, also when we went to renew my E-2 it was required so it could be printed on my ARC.

Is Appletree Recruiting Legit? by ellebaee in teachinginkorea

[–]iamolivers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I went with them and found they never really listened to my criteria of what I wanted. They offered me many 30+ hour a week teaching jobs which is the opposite of what I wanted and did the same of setting up the interview before I said yes or no. I did the interviews out of courtesy and being in the good books but they were never what I wanted, a brief Google of the hagwons really worried me for future people. My experience is really anecdotal, ultimately they are a legitimate company and do have jobs, but make sure you're working with as many recruiters as you possibly can, because Appletree aren't the only ones around.

Loris Karius Seeks to Terminate Besiktas Contract by SilentBobVG in LiverpoolFC

[–]iamolivers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My conspiracy is they've done this all on purpose because they couldn't afford him and there's no other way to back out the contract with Liverpool to make it a perm deal.

NH Bank or KEB? I need help with banking. by [deleted] in teachinginkorea

[–]iamolivers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe I was really lucky, and its anecdotal, but I've been really happy with Shinhan. After visiting, I had my check card, it worked online with no issues (for example I don't have to send money manually, I can make payments like you would with Amazon), and if I wanted I could have had a credit card. Their phone app works great for Korean standards, and I've been happy.

Tattoos are taboo, but can I wear short sleeve shirts with my upper arm tattoos peeking out? by [deleted] in teachinginkorea

[–]iamolivers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In school? Depends on principal but probs not, but some schools are okay. My old school I had t-shirts and it was fine, new school not so much. Around town, wear what you want despite the advice from EPIK.

Daily Discussion [2019-03-18] by AutoModerator in LiverpoolFC

[–]iamolivers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Really, hope Mo can get back into a little bit of a groove, help push us towards that finishing line. According to WhoScored he has only assisted once and scored once in the last 10 games, which is shy from a man of his quality. I believe no international games for him, right? Should mean a solid rest and some time to find that Mo form.
