I was looking at a job ad and I noticed they put a warning in there about removing "extra" jobs you've done in Korea for your resume. It's a good point and one you might not think of. The resumes are submitted to immigration and apparently they're going through your resumes very closely these days. Naturally, any off visa work would red flag you. I guess when I update my resume, everything goes on there. I've done some extreee work for some high profile clients (like city hall) and it looks good on the resume. You might be tempted to do the same. But of course, that's the exact kind of thing that could get you deported.

I'm not actually applying for a new job, mind you. Just something I came across during research. So heads up.

follow this mans advice. prepare two resumes - one with all your extras for job interviews, and one strictly to the visa one for your new place to send to immi after you get the job.
