I'm just wondering if you've heard of the following recruiters that I am thinking about using:
1. Easy Consulting
2. Canada Connections
3. Asia-Pacific Connections

I've heard of two of them but was just wondering if anyone has personal experiences with them. I'm quite aware that the best way to get a good job in Korea is to go there myself to check out the schools but that is not feasible in my situation. I think I talked to Easy Consulting before but I can't remember (no comments about how stupid that is...I realize that )

Thanks for your help.

I have heard of Canadian Connection..... www.canconx.com.


Very reliable, and would HIGHLY recommend him. Hiring now for public school jobs starting in March/April!

I went with Asia-Pacific...Kris did a great job, and I am at a very good institute.

I would say that he can be a bit slow to get back to you...best thing to do is to call during the recommended hours, he is fairly consistant about keeping these. If you send an application on the web, it is essential that you follow it up with a phone call, as he gets alot of applications...if you take the extra initiative, he will know that you are a serious applicant, and will give you more consideration as a result.

good luck!

Just go throught them all. I think I used about 20 different recruiters this year. And the funny thing is, I found my job by myself, not through a recruiter. Use them as tools to find jobs. Thats all they are. Why go with only one or two?

Daechi is right.

Use them, and maybe you'll find something through them or on your own.

I got my job simply because my resume was posted on englishspectrum. They called me. Up until that point, I had been telling people the resume sections were worthless... sure changed my opinion fast!

Every little bit helps, I suppose.
