I just sent a selfie photo and a resume out for an R&D job located in Bundang. The company (no idea of the name; the company is listed on Craigslist, where many parties prefer to remain anonymous until people get to know each other) says it wants a "gyopo," i.e., someone ethnically Korean who has lived overseas a long time, but I'm not sure whether that means they want someone who's Korean-fluent. If so, then this job is already a bust. The ad itself was time-stamped "30 minutes ago" when I first opened it, so I'm hoping my paperwork will be among the first of the resumes they see. I told them I'm available to interview next week, so we'll see what they have to say, if anything. I didn't include a cover letter, but I did write a sincere email to which I attached the photo and resume. We'll see what the reaction is, if anything. Fingers and tentacles crossed.
