|
|
Last year I was denied into EPIK because my references were too short. The recruiter, reachtoteach didnt help me with them.
This yeah I want to re apply and Canadian Connection just dropped me because they found out I was refused last year.
Does it effect my EPIK application?
Thanks |

Hi Justine,
You should apply directly, I agree.
Are you sure that is why you were denied? Be sure to confirm this information so that you are correcting the issue.

Considering that most Koreans aren't very tall, this is very surprising.
Maybe you could just get your references to wear platform shoes this time?
Has anyone else had this problem?
It is very curious.

Nice! Give my best to Radar�
OP: How were you notified that you were refused last year? Was it by EPIK directly? |

Is it true that if you were refused after you had an interview then you can NEVER re apply to teach through EPIK? |

Only 3 years ago you could've handed in a sheet of bog roll and they would've gladly accepted it.
Its crazy the way this whole thing has reversed.
looks like the Korean recruiters are having a field day now rejecting people for completely arbitrary reasons. |

EPIK isn't the only public school gig out there. Try CEPIK in Chungnam. Well, keep a ken eye on the job listings to see what's poppin to try more options. |
