So, I had my interview with S.M.O.E. and it seemed to go very well. Two days later I received an offer through the recruiter to work at the Seoul English Education Center in Gapyeong city.
During the interview I was told this was 1 hour away from Seoul. I’m thinking I should have asked specific questions about that!! Since the interview I read somewhere it’s more like 1.5hrs away. The plus side out about being “outside” of Seoul is 300,000 won more per month. The downside is that it will take a little longer to get to certain places and that means having to plan a little more getting places and meeting up with old friends.
Anyone mind if I couch surf on the weekends?
On another note I really hope that this mean less smog!?!?!
Then a few days later I receive an email letting me know that positions are filling up fast … whoever gets their information (below x several copies of each) to S.M.O.E. first – and it’s alright with no mistakes, legit, with all i’s dotted & t’s crossed – gets the job!
* Criminal Record Check & Copy of Authentic Degree – both with apostille
* completed application form
* sealed transcripts
* sealed & signed letters of Recommendation
* copy of passport page
* copy of Contract & Addenda
* resume & cover letter
* passport photos
* and any certificates you might have
PANIC!!! several small heart attacks later… and finally I get it done! Now it’s somewhere between here and South Korea.
