Korean Horizons is the way to go

I went to the ROK on two separate occasions and both times Alistair was absolutely amazing.
On my first attempt I was at a complete lost as to where to start. I had originally started my search on DavesESLCafe and replied to numerous postings on there. Many recruiters for both public and private schools responded with instructions on what to do next and informing me of various positions they had. They quickly built up my hopes and then just as quickly abandoned me without any further word. They literally just stopped contacting me after several weeks of correspondence. In hindsight I guess they had found someone to fill the position and didn't see the point in helping me find another.

Fast forward to Korean Horizons..
Literally within a month of contacting Alistair, I was in Korea. The process was so fast and efficient that I barely had time to register that I was heading to a foreign country for the first time in my life!! Before I knew it I was stepping off the plane and began feeling overwhelmed. Unlike some others who went through Korean Horizons, Alistair didn't meet me at the airport. It was off season and he was assisting another client on the other side of Korea. However, he left me with such detailed instructions that I felt as if he was there with me. From the moment I landed and throughout the year, Korean Horizons provided continuous support.

When I decided to go back to Korea for a second run, I bypassed all the job postings from other places and simply emailed Alistair directly. He gave me a list of available locations in the province of my choice and told me to order them in my preference. He claimed he couldn't make any guarantees to give me my first choice, but I ended up getting it! Alistair was considerate enough to give all the options and honest enough to tell me there were no guarantees, but it was clear that he really tried his best to make sure I got the position I most desired.

Both of my experiences with Korean Horizons were beyond exceptional and now they offer even more amenities like fronting you for your first purchases while waiting for your first paycheck. Korean Horizons is definitely the way to go if you want to work in a public school in Korea. If I ever decide to do another year, I have no doubt in my mind that I'll turn to Alistair again.
