Went thru a series of interviews and their debrief was last week. Got an email from the recruiter/HR asking for employment verification and salary data. Does this mean an offer is coming, or is this standard for Coupang/korean companies to collect documents even if I'm not inclined (i.e. no offer)? This is for a position in Korea. Blind tax YOE 12 yrs TC 250k
No idea, I don't have an offer yet, hence this question lol
Coupang is one of the best paying companies for software engineers in Korea. If you wanna work for a Korean company, choose one of the following: - Naver - Kakao - LINE+ - Coupang - Baemin Some other good companies: - Dangn Market - Ohouse (Today's house) - Toss
I do not recommend working for a Korean company
It depends. You're gonna have to do some research on the team and department you're gonna be working for. Even a good company can have a bad team.
For those of you curious, turns out I did get an offer and it was a negotiation call the recruiter wanted to have
Op what was the offer? Thanks for the update. Do you have to relo to S Korea?
Yeah still negotiating but it's actually lower than my current TC and yes relo to S Korea
I think they try to negotiate based on your current salary for positions in Korea (not just for foreigners but mostly for Koreans). You should give them any competing offers if you have them
Thanks. I just had my negotiation but it was a significant pay cut...probably because im non tech, non sde
@ppiper_hee curious about it. how did it go? you now in coupang? is it commerce? eats? play?
Whatβs your level? L7?
Did you end up giving? I thought it was strange they asked
