Thinking about
working in Korea?

The Employment Permit System (EPS) is a South Korean government program that allows eligible foreign workers from partner countries to seek employment in participating industries.

EPS-TOPIK is the Korean language test used as part of the selection process. It assesses reading, listening and Korean used in everyday life and the workplace.

Passing EPS-TOPIK does not guarantee a job offer.

Applicants must still meet the relevant requirements and go through the official selection and employment process. Hiring depends on employer selection and other applicable conditions.

From preparation to employment

How the EPS journey works

Requirements and schedules depend on the official announcement for your country and industry. This is a general guide, not a promise of placement.

  1. 01

    Check eligibility and register

    Read the current announcement from the Philippine Department of Migrant Workers (DMW). If you meet its requirements, register through the official process during the stated period.

  2. 02

    Prepare for and take EPS-TOPIK

    Study Korean for everyday life and the workplace. The exam assesses listening and reading; results and selection follow the criteria in the relevant announcement.

  3. 03

    Complete the next assessments

    If required for your recruitment round, follow the official instructions for the skills test and any other screening. Passing the language exam alone does not complete the process.

  4. 04

    Apply for the job-seeker roster

    Qualified applicants submit the required documents and complete any checks requested by the authorities. Only those accepted onto the roster can be considered through the applicable process.

  5. 05

    Wait for employer selection

    Korean employers select from eligible job seekers. Waiting times vary, and being on the roster does not guarantee that an employer will choose you or make an offer.

  6. 06

    Contract, visa and departure

    If selected, review the employment contract and follow official instructions for the remaining medical, paperwork, visa and pre-departure requirements before travelling to Korea.

The reality of the journey

EPS can open an opportunity to work in Korea, but competition, eligibility checks, employer demand and processing times affect each applicant’s path. Passing a test or joining the roster is not the same as having a job offer. Be prepared for uncertainty and keep your documents and contact details current.

Use official announcements for fees, deadlines and instructions. Kaja can help you prepare for the language and skills tests; recruitment and hiring decisions are made through the official EPS process.
