Hi expats. I've done some research on HUFS and found some pretty negative things in this forum about the campus. I was wondering if anyone had any up to date information about HUFS (Please keep any snobbish or derogatory remarks to yourself). Thanks to anyone willing to help me.

| Hey, sorry, I didn't realize it was in the job discussion forum. I've never worked there, so I can't answer your question. But I love the area and lots of good restaurants. |

the language/testing center has a horrible rep, likely the worst unigwon in korea, thats why they are always advertising, very high turnover.
the departments have an ok rep |

Thanks friend.... I'm so screwed. Although I will be part of a new department, which I might mean it won't be too bad.  |

The language institute ("unigwon") has improved alot in the past year or so with the new director. They advertise a lot because they've been expanding lately, not because people quit in droves. If you have a department job, good for you! Everyone I know there is happy with the conditions.
As for the neighbourhood, it's not the nicest part of Seoul, but there are enough good restaurants, lots of cafes, and a few good bars. PM me if you have specific questions. |
