Great experience with OK recruiting and my new School!

When I was searching for a teaching job in Korea, I came across Ok Recruiting on Go Oversea. My coordinator was very helpful and he took the time to answer all my questions and help me when needed. He made my arrival in Korea smoother and asked for updates. I really recommend. Using Ok Recruiting helped me find a teaching job quickly and followed me with every steps. Jay was professional and kind. I would highly recommend him and the platform. I'm happy with the school I'm in and everybody is welcoming.

Pros
  • Helps finding a job
  • Good communication
  • Answers question rapidly

Great Communication and Helpful

I found Jay to be very easy to communicate with and he was very helpful during the entire process. He was quick to provide available teaching positions and was very good at setting up contact with the school. All replies were prompt and he was available from the beginning of the visa process to my arrival day in Korea. I am an experienced teacher and not many recruiters are worth recommending, but I would certainly recommend Jay and OK Recruiting for both new teachers and experienced teachers who are looking to teach in Korea.

Pros
  • Prompt communication
  • Helpful
  • Professional

Great and helpful

I would recommend OK recruiting to others. When I was looking for a job I was nervous because I heard bad things about recruiters, but seriously Jay helped me so much. Anything I needed he was there to help, and always replied to my emails super fast. Jay also checked in with me several times after I started working, I really appreciated his help throughout this whole process. It can be very daunting to start the process of working abroad, but I assure you with OK recruiting you won’t have anything to worry about, your preferences and needs are taken seriously and you are treated like an individual that is important.

Excellent Service

I highly recommend OK Recruiting for those of you who are looking for job opportunities. I didn’t have to worry about the legitimacy of work advertisements, and Jay made the process quite simple for me.
I was looking for a job in a specific area and was given a list of job postings within the area. There wasn’t the pressure of having to stick with the first employer I interviewed.
Once I decided on an employer, Jay was so helpful in helping me through the next steps.
Emails were responded to promptly, and he answered every question I had.
Highly recommend.

Pros
  • Speedy Responses
  • Multiple Interviews
  • Ease of finding a job

Very helpful!

Would definitely recommend going through them. I have Jay as my recruiter and I couldn’t be more thankful for his help. He listened to what I was looking for and found the perfect school for me! He was so patient and kind, answered all my questions and responded so quickly to my emails! He found all the information for me that I wanted and went the extra mile to make sure I was doing okay during the whole process! I haven’t started yet as I start in feb but I am so excited and looking forward to the job Jay has helped me get! Thankyou so much!!

OK Recruiting - Helpful and Prompt

Jay was especially helpful on my job search and recommended me to the program that I was interested in. Before Jay, other recruiters that I had contact with would only recommend me to their ASAP positions and not let me interview for the ones I requested. So, I was very happy with Jay's work and am currently enjoying my job placement. Additionally, Jay was very prompt with communication throughout the process. I would certainly work with him again and recommend the company for those looking to work in South Korea.

Helpful

Professional, friendly and always answers emails and messages promptly within working hours. My recruiter checked in throughout the process to make sure I knew how to go about things and that everything was running smoothly. Answered every question I had, provided all the information and contact details needed and was a great go-between for me and my eventual employer. Made what can seem like a daunting process much easier to navigate. I definitely recommend using them if you're looking to move to Korea.

Pros
  • Timely responses

Jay was very helpful with finding me a school and was always friendly. He answered all of my questions as soon as he could. He also was very patient with me and always made sure I was doing okay and asked how I was doing consistently throughout the whole process from start to finish. He made sure to give me any and all details I needed before departure.I really appreciated all of his help and him being so friendly. I am glad Jay was my recruiter and I recommend him to anyone trying to find a job in Korea!!

Halfway mark

Jay was incredibly helpful through the entire process of getting to Korea and setting in my job placement. I have been teaching at my school for nearly 6 months and am really satisfied with the work and social environment I've been able to experience. Glad I'm able to work through OK recruiting :)

Found the best job for me

I want to start by saying I really like my situation. The main drawback is the money. It could be a little trying for someone who is interested in going out to restaurants, cafes, and going on fun expiditions on the weekend. I still do that but I have to be a little more conservative with my spending. I love my city and exploring Gyeonggido via the awesome network of river trails. I am also someone who studies a lot, so I took a lower paying job that was a little more relaxed in terms of the work load. Much of my spare time is spent reading and writing. All that said, the staff member who assisted me was awesome and very punctual with responding to my emails (sometimes within seconds). Go Overseas also has many others jobs with a varying payscale. So, remember that this is just my personal experience and that I sought out these conditions. You can find teaching gigs with higher pay and bigger cities. - I have to commute quite a bit to my school. But again, I sought out these conditions - I wanted a chill job that provided conditions for being a scholar in the cave. So, I would highly recommend this program because they found the best job for me. Perhaps they can find the job perfect for what you're seeking. Good luck!

Pros
  • housing (location and size)
  • teaching hours
  • punctual and supportive staff
Cons
  • pay
  • commute (distance to the school)
  • autonomy in the classroom
