Greetings Teachers!!

Canadian Connection is one of the oldest and most reliable recruitment agencies for Korea (we've been around since 2001). Don't let our name fool you - we hire applicants from all seven countries designated by Korean immigration (Canada, USA, New Zealand, Australia, South Africa, Ireland, and the UK)

We're currently hiring for numerous positions in EPIK, Gyeongnam public schools and various private institutes. Take a look at what we have to offer and we look forward to hearing from you!

To apply, simply submit an online application via our website, and we'll touch base shortly after that to set up an interview.
