Hi all. Anyone done one of these? Any pointers on what to expect, format and likely questions I'll be asked?
Cheers |

| That university seems to be constantly advertizing for teachers. Almost every time I scan the job ads on this site, there's Woosung University looking for teachers again. Before bothering with that skype interview you might want to do a search on the university. Maybe it's okay, but I think the fact that its always in need of teachers is a red flag. |

Woosong is a bottom tier Korean Uni. Woosong is sort of run like a Unigwon. They have various department even some childrens classes. Woosong I think is a good starting position for people wanting to get on the Uni track. For foreigner teachers it is an OK job. Not great, not bad. They just have a whole bunch of positions to fill usually because the employee many teachers.
Have a few friends that worked for them. Never really heard of any serious issues. Through there was something about a bit of expat politics and power games between foreigners. I think it settled down. |

Word on the street is that lots of teachers bailed after verbally renewing.
Apply on mass by snail mail/email.
Provided you've got a little bit more about you than the average hagwan-er/Cass swiller, you might just get lucky. |
