Can I stay in Korea while looking for a job after graduation?

If there is no job available immediately after graduation, you can change your status to Job Seeker (D-10) and stay in Korea to find a job. Once employment is decided, you must change to a residence status suitable for that job (such as E-7). To work part-time on a D-10 visa, you need a separate permit and the conditions are strict. Working without a permit constitutes a violation of your residence status. The length of stay and conditions vary depending on your degree, grades, etc., and change frequently, so I won't list the numbers here. Before graduation, check the current standards with your school's international student department and HiKorea·1345.
