Hey Folks

I am now 7 months into my first year teaching in Korea. The recruiter I used to help get me this job was fantastic. She communicated with me regularly day and night.

Is it a good idea to go with the same recruiter while you are still employed by the school she recruited you for?

Or can that backfire on me somehow?

If she was "fantastic," why do you want to leave the placement she got you? Not so fantastic? Just asking.

She might be thrilled. Replace you & re-place you: double payday for her!

Its generally wise to engage several recruiters anyway -- more choices for you.

Name of recruiter and school?

Was it Anna from Global?

The reason would be to move to a different city from the one I was placed in. The school is good and stable but the city was not my first choice.

The city is Gwangju, an awesome city but I like to move around.

It wasn't Ann. Her name was Joanne. She was an amazing recruiter.
