If you’re an international student in Korea, don’t wait until graduation to prepare for your next step. Start checking these early: ✅ Your visa options after graduation ✅ Korean language level (TOPIK/KIIP) ✅ Job fields you’re eligible for ✅ Required qualifications and certificates ✅ Documents needed for your visa change ✅ Companies hiring international talent Tip: Your major, Korean ability, qualifications, and job type can all affect which visa you may be eligible for. 📌 Start preparing before your final semester — not after graduation!

D-2/D-4 students generally need permission before starting a part-time job. Required documents: • Passport & ARC • Employment contract • Business registration certificate • Employer’s ID card • Certificate of enrollment • Academic transcript • Korean proficiency certificate (if applicable) Requirements can vary by visa and study program. Check with your university or 1345 before starting work. [You can apply online through Hikorea and remember it takes around 14 days so make contract to work after 14 days of your signed date]

Homesickness is proof that you have something worth missing. Keep building something worth coming home from.🥹❤️

Looking for a part-time job while studying or a full-time job after graduation? Don’t rely only on friends or social media. 📱 Check Korean job platforms such as Albamon, Alba천국, JobKorea and Saramin. 🎓 For international students, also check: • University career centers & job boards • Foreigners-only recruitment information • Government/immigration employment information • Company websites and LinkedIn ⚠️ Before starting a part-time job, check whether your visa allows it and whether you need permission from immigration. 📌 After graduation, start looking early and check which jobs and visa types match your major, qualifications and visa status.

International students in Korea: Before starting a part-time job, make sure you have permission. Students on D-2 (student) or eligible D-4 (language training) status generally need to obtain permission for part-time employment from immigration before starting work. Working without the required permission can lead to immigration penalties and may affect your future visa status. Always check your permitted working hours and eligible workplace before accepting a job, as the conditions can differ depending on your visa, Korean-language level, and study program.

If you're living in Korea as a foreign resident, you can now use a Mobile Foreign Registration Card (Mobile ARC) instead of carrying your physical card in many situations. Benefits of the Mobile ARC: ✅ Easy identity verification with your smartphone ✅ Same legal validity as the physical ARC ✅ Convenient for use at banks, public offices, and many other places ✅ Less risk of losing your physical card ⚠️ Before you use it: • You need a mobile phone registered in your name. • Some institutions may still require the physical ARC. 📌 The Mobile Foreign Registration Card makes daily life in Korea more convenient and secure. If you haven't activated yours yet, it's worth checking out! 💬 Have you already used the Mobile ARC? Share your experience or ask your questions in the comments! #MobileARC #ForeignRegistrationCard #LivingInKorea #InternationalStudents #ForeignWorkers #KoreaLife
