So happy I chose Korvia!

Korvia simplified every part of the process of teaching in South Korea. I am so glad that I chose Korvia because they were able to accommodate my needs and desires for teaching abroad, like being in a central location and teaching at a school that resonates with my values. I am so thankful to Jessi for reaching out to me with a job offer; she hit the nail on the head with everything she communicated with me. I really felt like Korvia was trying to understand and meet my preferences. I even got shuttled from the airport, no extra cost to me, and I have recently received a welcome package from Korvia, a most welcome and pleasant surprise :) You just cannot go wrong with a recruiting agency like Korvia!

Korvia is so Helpful!

I'm actually glad God pointed me in Korvia's direction. They are extremely helpful and persistent with the work they do. The staff is super friendly, they keep you in the loop about the status of your application no matter the stage. Also, if you are not accepted into one program, that's no problem for Korvia. They will continue to help you until you are accepted and it's to your own approval. They truly put in a lot of effort and you'll definitely experience wonderful benefits as a result: pre paid sim card for your phone, connect you to a reliable bank, and advice on how to get a new phone and phone plan. They really take care of you so no worries with them.

I felt happy and at wasy with all the constant support and information. The assistance with every aspect was commendable. I am so happy i went through Korvia. The service was unique because of the quick responses,easy insteuctions and guidance and most importantly the support i got.

Korvia

Korvia was a great help in getting me here and keeping me here when it was time to renew or look for a new school. They have a very friendly and hard working staff. Whenever an application became complicated, they helped me through it as well as any other snags. They also are very professional and understand the stess that can come with moving to a new country. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to teach in Korea.

Best recruiting company!

KorVia has been absolutely amazing! They were there for me every step of the way. The application process, setting up interviews, visa arrangements, they did it all! Jessie was a star. I definitely would not be here without her. She was always prompt when answering any questions I had, and she truly went above and beyond to make the transition a smooth one. I love my job and city, and I'm so grateful that I chose KorVia!

Korvia is awesome!

I started working as an English teacher in Korea back in 2015 through the EPIK program. Even though I am very thankful to EPIK for getting me to Korea, I am super thankful that I switched to Korvia in 2017. The staff are amazingly helpful (Yay Ann!), I received multiple interview offers at different types of schools, and I got to pick the school that I liked the most. I just renewed with the school Korvia helped me get into and I absolutely love it here. Thank you, Korvia! :)

YASSS! Use Korvia!! :)

I've been in Korea for over 5 years and I have to admit, Korvia is the best recruiting companies I've used. They helped me twice in finding a new job in Korea. They are very professional and helpful. In the two times I've used them, almost all the recruiters helped me in different ways. But I have to give my love to Jina, Ann, Jessie and Thelma! They are the sweetest and most understanding recruiters. I'm a nervous wreck when it comes to applying for jobs and they pretty much held my hand throughout the whole process! I don't know what I would do without them. I've used other recruiters before, but they are the best!! :D :D :D
