How about finding a PS job or hagwon job? Can he find anyone a full-time PS job with EPIK?

I've never met him and I'm sure he's a nice guy. That having been said, his name sounds like one you'd give to a bully in a young learner's novel.

I don't think Richard is a recruiter. I think right now he is doing a one off for a university in Daejeon. You best ask him yourself.


He's not a legal recruiter in Korea?

I know number of people he placed with EPIK, but don't know anything about his hagwon placements although he does have them in Daejeon, too. Uni contracts are just an intro and then you pay him if you are offered the job and you decide to take it. Nice guy, i would say above average as a recruiter.

Yes, but why would a recruiter charge an applicant if the schools pay the recruiter a fee? Does this seem honest?

I was simply asking a question. A number of people seem to be familiar with him as a recruiter. I didn't expect this thread to take a negative turn because I've never dealt with him. If anyone has anything positive to say, then please feel welcome.

I know Richard. He is a good man. He makes sure his university classes pass. He enjoys eating foreign food. He is almost a pillar of the community. He has no reason to deceive you, but like I said before, I did not know he was recruiting.

Universities don't pay recruiters.
