So good news! We have done some interviewing and actually achieved the long awaited procuring of jobs in our search for work in Korea. The interviewing was actually really interesting, the language gap was very large in some cases, but in others it was really not a big deal. Amanda seemed to have a harder time understanding some of the interviewers, but was also experiencing issues with my phone so I won't hold it against her (much). The questions were pretty basic, like "Why do you want to teach in Korea?" "Do you enjoy working with children?" "Do you know the Muffin Man?" We had in total about 5 different interviews, while I was very nervous for the first one it goes easier as we went along.
We ended up getting offered two of the jobs we interviewed for. One in Daejeon which is one of the big places we originally wanted to end up, and Cheongju-Si which is the contract we decided to take. The school is a kindergarten which fits into our age range, and we will be finishing classes at 7pm which would work better for me since I am an early bird. We will post pictures and progress as they happen, our tentative leaving date is currently August 17th assuming all goes well with the visa process! We're hoping to send out our documents tomorrow which will cost us a lot of moolah but it will be worth it in the long run!
