|
|
With my letter of release in my hand, I am applying to new positions. I am ending my contract fairly early, a little over 2 months in. Would it be advantageous at all to include my current job that I'm quitting in my resume when applying for new jobs? |

Will they try and screw you over? Will prospective employers not hire you if you put it on a resume and they start asking tough questions? That's what you need to ask yourself. If it's "yes" to either question, then don't waste your time. |

The advantage you have with a letter of release is that you can change jobs without the cost or bother of a visa run. You are already in Korea. You are available now.
How can you explain having a letter of release if you don't list the job you were released from? This would be quite a red flag to an employer that you have something to hide. |
