Has anyone heard of inter-corea recruiting agency. They have been very persistant in trying to hook me up with a job. I would prefer to deal directly with the school, but using a recruiter may be more efficient. If anyone has a tip on inter-corea or a good recruiter let me know.

Recruiting companies and the law

A sample:
1. Are you registered with the Korean Labor Board? What is your license number?
2. Have you personally visited the Employer and ascertained the working conditions?
3. Have you personally seen the proposed premises and accommodation?
4. Do you have authority to negotiate contractual changes, or merely convey them to the Employer?
5. Most importantly, ask if the recruiter/company is actually part of an education Franchise, and are you being recruited for a school within their own franchise system, thus their independent objectivity may be biased.
6. Some recruiters have comprehensive web sites, though some of the information is somewhat different to reality, however, these recruiters are to be preferred over those who hide behind mere e-mail address

Ask your recruiter those 6 questions.

Dalton...that was funny...

Most recruiters do not have any of those and still some of them do a fine job.

A good recruiter can lok after the well-being of the prospective teacher if he or she has a network in Korea.

Also, there is a difference between a representative and a recruiter.
