 |
|
Has anyone (recently) had luck getting a job while they were in the U.S.? I've tried working with recruiters, and am having sh*t luck. I've gotten a few phone calls, but as soon as they hear I have a F-4, that's the end of it.
I really want to return, but I don't want to go back unless I *know* I have a job...Should I risk going back and hoping I get one when I get there? |

| I keep hearing this, why are F-4's being treated by lepers? Can anyone explain it to me? |

| F-4s are a dime a dozen here. |

| There is no explanation. Maybe the F4 are not the wonder-cure for the ills of Korean ESL they were hoped to be. Anyway, OP basically timed it badly. F4's are hired by GEPIK and some hagwons (CDI et al). Others turn their noses at 'em. Major hiring time for GEPIK is October. |

| I'm guessing it's the general ability of your average F-4 visa holder to speak Korean and get legal support if needed. That's pretty scary for most academies given the average level of shadiness one finds. |
