Did all of the EPIK or school jobs not get filled? I thought alot of young grads were coming here now. Did they fall through?

By the looks of it, it looks like a teachers market again...any ideas?

thanks. Im going to quit my current long term position (3+ years) and try for something in Busan....Id like another HS. I see them pop up now and then..


I've read a few positive reports on the US economy lately. maybe things really have started to turn there.
Or maybe the E2 requirements here have finally just proved too much for a lot of people.



I just think people on Dave's like hyping the 'Korean English teaching market is going to change for the worse' prophecy. I could get a job here if I attended an interview covered in feces and drunk to the hilt.


Oh there are still plenty of garbage jobs around to judge by the number in the contract sticky thread alone.

It's getting a decent one that's the problem.



.......and how do you spot a decent one? Razz Very Happy

Contract...and if you like it...then negotiations.
You can generally get a feel for it after those.
