Are there any demands for accountants in South Korea?
Asked by Mitch
I'm an accountant and planning to go to South Korea to find a better job. And I have this information that right now, South Korea is only up to production and factory workers. I just want to know if I got other options when it comes to working there aside from entering as a factory/production worker. pls. help. should i just apply to these type of jobs even if its not my line of work? and is it okay to work there?

Best Answer:
To be honest nationality comes largely into play for this question. If you are Korean or at least speak fluent Korean then you might have a chance of an accountant job, although even then, it takes times in Korea and knowing peopel helps. If you do not speak Korean and are also not Korean then you will almost 0% chance of getting an accountancy job in Korea UNLESS you get a job with a foreign company and are sent to Korea representing lets say, an American, Aussie or UK company. Maybe not the anwer you wanted but I'm just trying to help with this information. You might fnd more useful info on http://www.seoulkoreaasia.com/trade-business.htm
