First post so forgive me if there's any discrepancies/been posted before, I did a forum search but couldn't find any.

Anyway, i've been using quite a few agencies from Korea, but one has been far better than the rest, he says the best thing to do is to gather all my documents and forward them to him, and he will get a job for me within 2 weeks for sure. He was very confident, he gave me the contact details of references (I contacted them and they only had good things to say).

What do you guys think, is this normal practice, to send all documents to a recruitment agency?

Thanks guys, and help would be great

Start a file on your computer and keep scanned copies of your documents as you gather them. Print out hard copies to keep for your personal files too in case they get accidentally dumped from your computer.

Email attachments of the scans so he knows you have them and are all set. Don't send the complete package until he emails you a contract and you're ready to sign it.

DON'T send him the hard copy of your degree. Get it copied, notarized, and apostilled. (Copy and scan that) The apostilled copy is all they need.

Make sure the school has signed the contract before you sign it, and certainly before you send any documents. Make sure that the contract
has EVERYTHING filled in...not a letter of intent, but a real contract, spelling out everything, and that the school has signed that and it has to be in English.
