Real reviews from people using the KOVE system
I kept sending out my resume to companies in Korea and got literally zero responses for 8 months. I bought Korea Career OS after seeing it on my email. I was skeptical because I've spent money on useless things before, but this was completely different. The resume and portfolio bundles showed me exactly how to format my experience so hiring recruiters understand. Using the prompts included in the OS was a huge shortcut. Instead of staring at a blank screen trying to figure out how to write my 자소서, I followed the structures and generated drafts that actually sounded like me. If you're an expat trying to figure out the Korean job market on your own, don't waste months and get it!~.
I rarely leave reviews, but I had to write one for Korea Career OS. I was honestly at the point of packing my bags and giving up on staying in Korea after applying for over 100 jobs and silence. My biggest issue was that my resume was completely ignored. Korea Career OS gave me the exact bundle templates to fix this. I restructured my past jobs into project-based statements, added a visual portfolio link, and rewrote my summary using the custom prompts. I landed my first interview! I can't thank Rachel enough for building this system. It truly bridges the gap for foreigners trying to make it in the Korean job market.
As a foreign job seeker in Korea, I always struggled with what to write in my Korean cover letter (자소서) and 경력기술서. I saw it on Instagram and decided to get the Korea Career OS system. I had never used Notion before and thought would it actually work for me, but my mindset completely changed after opening it. Even as a total Notion beginner, everything is laid out step-by-step. The company analysis database, application tracker, and AI prompts made it so manageable to apply on my own. I used to be completely blocked on the application section, but using the prompt hub allowed me to craft a strong response
When I first started trying to get hired in Korea, I was so overwhelmed and didn't know where to start. I found it across Korea Career OS on my email and decided to get it! At first I hesitated because I didn’t know if it would work for me. But the OS system is on a completely different level. It covers everything from global company tracking, English & Korean resume formats, Korean cover letter, portfolio, and application prep all in one place. The system prompts give exact, high-quality responses for the Korean job market. I personally use the job application dashboard every day. I highly recommend it to anyone feeling stuck searching for a job in Korea!
I was so lost on how to actually use AI for my job search in Korea, but the prompts gives you a real, practical framework! The prompts for tailoring my resume and 자소서 have been incredibly helpful
| Korea Career OS | Generic resume writer | Free templates | ChatGPT with a basic prompt | Doing nothing | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cost | $37 | $200 to $400 | $0 | $0 to $20 | $500+ |
| What you get | Resume, portfolio, and 자소서 system built for Korea, plus templates, prompts, and trackers | One polished document | A blank layout | A fast draft | Personal help |
| The catch | You fill in your own experiences and work history | Does not know both the Western and Korean market. You get one or the other | No idea which resume to send, no Korea context, no examples | Gets filtered out by Korean resume scanners (ATS) | Great if you can afford it |

Four years ago I moved to Korea with no network, no visa and barely any Korean. I figured out how to land a six-figure role at a big tech company in Seoul, and now I help others do the same.
I work 1:1 with a small number of people on their resume, portfolio, interviews and job search strategy for Korea. Spots are limited to ensure that I can give attention to all my clients each month.

No. Many global companies and startups in Korea hire English candidates. What you do need is to understand how Korean hiring works, which is exactly what my guides and Korea Career OS cover.
