oK I have been posting on here abit but do I really need to start preparing for Korea if I plan to go just after 26th March to get my VISA and Job? I work nearly 50hrs a week so I really cbf doing much but I just dont want to be worried when it comes down to crunch time thats all... Im an Australian by the way so I guess the criminal back ground check would be much shorter cause we aint a big country like USA.

Thanks!

Federal police check takes less than a fortnight. Passport similar if you need a new one.

I had to get my degree stamped by the university and I was able to do that in 3 days (thanks to express post) but that is the weak link because universities take massive holidays. If your university is still open you might want to do it this week before they go on holidays

Notarized happens on the spot and apposttile 24 hours.

Edit: late march.... you have heaps of time. You could leave it until early feb no worries.
