Stephen Cho from EduOrgange was my recruiter, and I believe he did his best to place me in a good position. From my experience, he was helpful, reliable, and kind. I was able to call him for help whenever I needed it, he was always friendly and did his best to make my transition to Korea and time here easy and memorable. It is unfortunate what happened/is happening at the CIS Topia school, but from my understanding, since he himself is not the owner or director of the school, I don't think its fair to hold him to the same standard as the person who was actually holding wages from the employee's. I would definitely recommend Stephen Cho as a reliable recruiter. My suggestion is to do your own investigating on the school you are considering. There and so many websites where you can find all the information you need to decipher a good school from a bad one. If for some reason he offers you a position at this school, don't accept- simply tell him you'd like to go elsewhere. If it is true that he is an investor or part owner of the school, I am sure he would like to see things change, and will do whatever he can to make those changes, including offering you a position, and trying to sustain the school until things become better. Like I said, DO YOUR OWN INVESTIGATING. Bottom line, Stephen is a good guy, who means well. Whether you choose to work with him or not is your choice, but when I am looking for my next position in Korea, I will definitely use Stephen, and trust that he will find me a great job.
