Hi everyone! I'm a first time poster and appreciate all the info that I've been able to lurk off these forums. Thank you!

So I arrived here from the US a few days ago with an F-4 visa. I have all my documents ready, but i'm lacking an apostille on my CBC. I'm looking for a part time hagwon job and was wondering if i'd have any problems getting a recruiter because of the missing apostille. I would also be very grateful if someone could point me to some good recruiters around Seoul.

First off, the lack of apostille will be a problem. Until you paperwork is all proper and completed, things will not go well...hmmm not the best for you. Most recruiters will only deal with those that they see as easy to deal with, incomplete paperwork is not easy. Do look into seeing if an affidavit from the US embassy will suffice. Maybe not.. Since you are an F-4, you do not have to worry about immigration, more with MOE.
As you said you are in country, so that helps you a bit. It makes you a bit more desirable.

As to recruiters, please do some more leg work... In general use all recruiters. Do look on Facebook for some recruiters, too.

This question that comes up all the times.
Can some recommend a good/best/etc recuiter? People want that special recruiter that will get them the best job. Recruiters are just one part of the process. Never mind this what I call "string question" aka "How long is a piece of string?". For one person a recruiter is fine, to another the best, and to one person they wish death upon.

Here is the easy answer - ALL OF THEM. Do not use one, use them all. One will eventually find you a job.

I have complied a list of threads of this question... The threads where found with google and two words recruiter and ______> I used best, good, recommend, and
I tried to keep to the basic question of can some body tell me what recruiter to use. A few are quite old, some a little specific to a city or area. I mainly ignored specific recruiting companies.
