You accept a contract and provide your required visa documents and signed contract to the employer. He then files them into immigration to sponsor you. A visa issuance number will be issued by the immigration office for your employment. This visa issuance does have a validity of 90 days and during this time you cannot apply for any other job or have your documents filed for any other employer UNLESS your employer cancels this letter at the immigration office. In the case of working in a public school a letter of employment is issued - NOT an issuance number
The employer informs you of the original visa issuance number [or posts your employment letter to you for public schools]. You must be physically out of Korea and able to take the number, your passport, your original degree, ID, money and the visa application form to a Korean Embassy (NOT IN KOREA). The embassy officer will give you a short interview and then stamp your passport with an E2 visa stamp. You then enter Korea and present your passport to an immigration officer and your visa becomes valid for you to commence work immediately.
