I'm interested in finding a public school job in Seoul. I'm currently on an E-2 visa. I also have my original diploma here with me in Seoul and an old FBI check issued in February being apostilled right now and sent to me. With that information I have a few questions:

1. What is the best way to go about getting an EPIK job? Recruiters?

2. My FBI CBC will be 6 months old sometime in January. Will I be able to give my 2 month's notice in early November and be hired by EPIK in time to get a new visa issued? I'm worried that the actual visa process will take place some time after January and I'll have a defunct FBI CBC on my hands, and be stuck without the right docs and a job I'm about to quit. I'm also thinking about this as if I don't get a LoR from my current employer.

3. How much better are my chances for landing an EPIK position since I'm already in the country and on an E-2?

Any other options I need to consider?
