Got a mate who needs a position - is from the UK, 3 years exp in hagwons, BA, who needs a public school gig in busan either from October or spring semester next year... which recruiters are dealing with busan positions right now? I went through the list on dave's, just wondered if anyone had any other links I could give to my mate so he can exhaust all possibilities.

Thanks in advance,

His best option would be applying through EPIK. He could apply for a spring 2010 position in Busan. EPIK will start taking applications in October.

Busan office of education only takes teachers from EPIK twice a year. The vacancies for the Sept 1 intake were filled weeks ago.
They dont do casual vacancies, and if there are any gaps remaining after the Sept intake there are many people already waiting with EPIK who missed this time.
Your friend will not be able to get any EPIK contract to Seoul until March 2010. He needs to apply to the Seoul EPIK website after October like it advertises on the site. Recruiters for EPIK just forward all papers to the Seoul office anyway.
