Important!

EPIK receives far more applications than they have open posts needing new teachers. As a result they are very quick to pass over poorly submitted applications. If they decline to interview you (step 4) then you will have to wait six months for the next intake before you can apply again.


You are therefore encouraged to coordinate your application process closely with YunOck JUNG to ensure your Application Documents set and the online  Application Form are all in order before you submit your application online by pressing the SUBMIT FINAL APPLICATION button.
