Hello everyone!

I was wondering if anyone could give me advice on how to best land a job at preferably an international school as a newly qualified teacher after this summer (so August 2013). Which countries are for example most open to this? I registered for many job listing sites, but most employers seem to require 2 years of experience. Is this requirement set in stone, or should I apply anyway?

With regard to my qualifications at the start of the academic year 2013-2014:
- I will be a fully qualified English teacher upon completion of my Master's degree in Education in the Netherlands this summer.
- In addition to this degree, I will have obtained the 'Cambridge International Certificate in Teaching for Bilingual Education,' which includes Content and Language Intergrated Learning (CLIL).
- In terms of experience, I will have had a year-long internship at a Dutch bilingual school and a three week internship at Rome International School.
- Finally, I am not a native speaker of English, but are often mistaken for one by native speakers. I hold a Dutch passport.

So, do I stand a chance as a newbie, or not? What do you think? =)

Oh and finally, I was also wondering if anyone could tell me if the NET Scheme in Hong Kong is a good program or not since it fits my profile perfectly. I've done some reading about it online, but got mixed results... One website said that it's a competitive and a more 'highbrow' program, whereas another website stated that teachers were dissatisfied with the program and went home after a year. Does anyone have any experience with this?

thank you so much in advance for your time!
