Website:

Summary:
Cindy Park was the recruiter I dealt with. I wasn't too happy about it, I asked a lot of questions and she wasn't very inclined to answer some of them. She spoke to a friend of mine about 'worrying' if my attitude would be a problem for the employer because I ask questions. That didn't make me too happy considering questions are a natural part of getting a job and making sure your crap and their crap is in order, but she didn't like to answer them. I had a job lined up at one school but that school got 'postponed' and she moved me to another school with the 'same' contract and everything included the other one had. However I found a ton of differences in the contract and this is why I was asking questions, changing the contract, requesting where my apartment would be including the address etc.

So I was wondering how you guys felt about this recruiting group?

Cindy is sketchy. The same thing happened to me a few years back. I told her what I was looking for, she kept sending me offers that were "great" and "perfect" for me according to her, but were nothing like I asked for. So I reminded her of what I wanted. I never heard from her again. Maybe she didn't like my "attitude".

Whatever. I hear she does a lot of business so I'm sure she wasn't crying in her soju, and I ended up finding a good job.

Be wary of that one.

My recruiter is named James Jeong from ESL Park, though he's not working for ESL Park anymore. If you happen to talk to him, I highly recommend him.

No one else has used "good english"? Only one poster!? She does seem shady so I am curious to know more experiences.
