|
|
Ive been here for a year and Im not sure if Im going to re sign with my current (PS) school. Things are really good, I have it better than a lot of people I know. My payscale is on the low side (1st year public school) and I have a serious girlfriend who is willing to move anywhere I find a job (she has enough money to live comfortably without needing work), so Im not too worried about my social life. Any recommendations for nice places outside of the Seoul area? As usual, a lot of EPIK teachers will bail on their contracts last minute, since ill already be in country, there is a good chance I can pick up some offers, but Im not sure where to look. Somewhere by the water would be nice. Any recommendations? |

Busan or Ulsan are going to be your best bets for things near water. Finding jobs there is a piece of cake, there's tons listed on this site and others. |

Do you think going through a recruiter would be a good way to go about it, vs applying at schools myself? I kind of want to see whats out there. Jeju would be a cool location, i think but Im not that picky. I want to make more money and be tempted to spend less. Not planning on doing much traveling, so I could even go into the private sector (since I am willing to work more for more money, the only benefit staying PS seems to have is a guaranteed paycheck) |
