Yes. Anthropic, OpenAI (Korea office), Lunit (medical AI), Moloco (ad-tech), Bear Robotics, MarqVision, and Mathpresso all hire foreigners on English-only postings. Naver Labs and Krafton's research teams have strong international representation. Coupang and LINE run large applied ML teams.

No to all three. /jobs is free for both candidates and employers. Apply links go to the original posting on the company's own ATS (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, or proprietary career page). Seoulstart adds visa context and curates for English-friendliness; the hiring relationship is between you and the employer.

Each posting is classified by its language signals: JD language, explicit Korean-fluency requirements, foreign-team mentions, sponsorship language, and the company's track record of hiring foreign workers. Roles that look Korean-only fall below our threshold and don't surface here. The classification is Seoulstart's read of the public JD; always verify language requirements directly with the recruiter.

Yes. Click any role and look for the free CV tailor link. It runs three free passes per day, takes a minute, and produces an ATS-friendly English CV mapped to the role's requirements. No upload required, no signup; resets at midnight KST.
