Ask HN: I need to quickly move to South Korea, How?
56 by krthowaway | 15 comments on Hacker News.
I'm a British Software Engineer. I just discovered my South Korean fiance has just been diagnosed with a terminal condition so I need to move over there ASAP. I've got a CS degree and 1 and a half years experience at a large news organisation. In my team we manage a web service written in elixir including all associated CI and aws infrastructure. I've been coding in python since I was 16 and java at uni. I've been learning Korean for the past year but its not business ready yet. So my main question is, given my situation, how difficult would it be for me to get a job in Korea? Other questions: How common are English speaking software jobs there? Could I get a remote job for a company outside of Korea while still living there? Does anyone here have insight into Korean job visa or marriage visas on here, that could point me in the right direction? Sorry if this isn't concise or the questions are easily googleable, I'm still reeling from the news. I just thought this is the most likely place to get the best advice! Thank you in advanced, your advice is greatly appreciated!
