Janepatricks:

He overstayed nd came back voluntarily without any criminal case nd had to renew his passport nd he is just lyk everybody else trying to fend for himself nd family isn't that the reason we travel outside the country.... thanthanks

Yes, we all are here to add great value to ourselves and the lives of the people around us(family n friends), but doesn't mean that we now have to flout visa rules in doing so, Dear JanePatricks, but just as the link specifies, his expensive mistake may have cost him a 5-year ban, and he apparently cannot do anything about it.
His actions have also directly/indirectly cost the image and reputation of the country he represents and the people genuinely coming after him. You really have to be here(or anywhere else) to see how local citizens /companies/institutions/Govt. parastatal negatively objectify and treat Africans(esp'ly Nigerians) abroad. I must be frank with you here!

So I encourage you to start educating him on the need to always legalize his status when abroad again rather than holding briefs for him. We all have a huge role to play in redeeming the lost image/credibility of that country.
Finally, i did clearly mention the possible reasons why he may have earned a 5-year ban(Paragraph 1), even with the web link. I did not imply or insinuate he was a criminal.
Please take a chill pill, we all are here to learn and help one another.

Cheers.

Nigeria as a country speaks better English language than the rest of the African countries(arguably), yet, we are not legally allowed to teach the language here or anywhere else for that matter. We cannot easily secure collar or lucrative jobs in other sectors too directly from Nigeria.
We are only allowed to do shitty and PT jobs abroad while studying. We are only allowed to first spend hugely on foreign education and then work extremely harder to now secure lucrative jobs abroad.
These are the consequences of the previous actions of our bros n sis abroad. The get-rich-quick syndrome have totally be-deviled their minds. They have practically ruin it all for the incoming generation, who now have nothing left.

For instance, sometimes it beats me why heavily accented English-speaking countries like South Africa, Angola, et al, could easily secure teaching jobs here, but we Nigerians, who are extremely qualified for such jobs gets turned down or ignored the moment we put-in our CVs.

Be the change you really want to see! Do needful when abroad. Stay legal, determined and focused. Stay away from crimes and criminality when abroad

Please how did you apply for the scholarship... How do one go about document screening and how to submit them.

You can apply to this scholarship by submitting your application to the korean embassy (embassy track quota) or by sending them to any of the participating universities (university track quota) in s.korea via courier.

I actually prefers and applied through the latter route.

Hope this helps.

Ladies and gents ..Been out of sight for a while ..Well am back to stay for good .
Well ..What he stated abt working in Korea is true ..But my brothers and sisters....
Don't even think abt working in Korea ..Am talking from experience after living in Korea for over 3yrs ..Lucky enough I was there on a special assignment and everything was provided for me ...But this is from my fellow Nigerians living there ..
Everyone of them hated working in Korea ..Long stressful hours ..With almost no time to eat or breath ..
U get paid nothin..
2. If u don't have the right documents to work ..U will be arrested at the factory and sent back home ...





quote author=WILL10 post=54393137]5 Legal and Basic Job types for foreigners in Korea(especially D2 Students)

Hello friends, just thought i should share my thoughts concerning the job prospects specifically for students, as this have always been the most popular and common questions i get through emails, week-in and out.

Korean Law states that students are only permitted to officially work on part time(max 20 hours weekly) and only after completing 6 months in Korea. However, these laws are often flawed or flouted by students. Below are the 5 cardinal jobs a student could roll-on with until graduation here.

1. Factory Jobs
-Usually long-term or monthly,
-Pay is bi-monthly or monthly and its awesome too.
-Minimum $1,800 USD monthly.
-Not so easy to secure for students as it requires documentations(most times), time-demanding and would sure affect your academics.

2. Tekbe (Arabite) Jobs
-Casual or short-term jobs.
-Pay is daily and good too.
-Minimum $70 USD or much more per day.
-Could be day, night or weekend jobs.
-Quite easy to secure and mostly okay to manage with academics.

3. English Teaching jobs
-Usually part time or purely full time jobs.
-Pay is bi-weekly or monthly and its awesome too.
-Minimum $2,000 USD Monthly, depending on the number of hours you work per week and your bargaining strength.
-Extremely tough to secure for anyone other than the recognized Native English speaking countries(check on google for the countries).
-Students could get it based of sheer-luck or strong familiar referrals.

4. Paid Internship.
-Purely formal company jobs.
-Usually medium-term or semester vacation jobs,
-Pay is bi-monthly or monthly and its awesome too.
-Minimum $1,500 USD monthly.
-Not so easy to secure for students as it is competitive.


5. Business, skill-oriented, short-term personal contracts, others.
-Importation/exportation business.
-contracts using your skill-sets (examples: App Programming skills, hair-making and cooks(for girls), remotely working as English translators, corrector, writers, etc.)
-No strings attached regarding timing and pay, as it is entirely up-to you and your clients.


Please be well informed prior to coming here so you don't get into a fix. "Fore-warned is Fore-armed"

NB: The info listed above are purely based on my personal opinion/experiences. However, they could slightly differ with the views of other Nigerian residents in SK.

U get paid nothin..what do you mean by you get paid nothing, do you mean everyone working in Korea don't get paid at the end of the job,how about people doing non factory job, do they also face such challenges.
