My name is Derek O’Grady, and I am the executive director for Embark Recruiting. Embark Recruiting started in 2003 as a Native English Teacher recruitment agency. We provide information about teaching and working in Korea. I have a lot of experience being on both sides of the recruiting process and understand how difficult it can be. My, and Embark Recruiting’s, goal is to make the process as smooth and painless as possible.
