Re: Schrole and ISS and Search files

Once again @Psyguy, you are both under-informed and incorrect. Don't let that stop you from giving your spurious advice though. You do you...

For those who prefer their information to be accurate, I received the below email from Schrole last week :

Dear XXXXX,

We're about to migrate to ISS-Schrole Advantage
In the next 24 hours we'll be turning off Schrole Connect and in the following few days, turning on ISS-Schrole Advantage. We'll be transferring most of your profile information to the new database automatically, however there are a few things we're going to have to do manually.
Here's a few tips for what to expect:

During migration
• The process begins by turning Schrole Connect off. If you'd like, you can log in to Connect and download existing documentation over the next 24 hours.
• We'll go offline for a few days while we check our data and test the deployment of the new system.
• Once we come back online it’s really important that you update your profile IMMEDIATELY so your account can be set to ACTIVE and recruiters can view your file. Most information will migrate from the old systems, but there are some new fields and updates needed. Your account will be PENDING until you make these changes and they run through our quality-assurance checks. We will send you an email notification when the system is open and ready for you to access.
• As soon as you receive that system notification, use the ISS-Schrole Advantage link provided to:
• Change your password
• Update and check your work history
• Update and check your personal information
• Check any open fields to make sure your profile is complete.
• You can also add more information, including uploading a photo.
• Enjoy being one of the valued candidates who has a complete profile ready for recruiters to view. Good luck on all those recruitment conversations!
OCTOBER (Start Job Hunting)
• More and more schools will become part of the ISS-Schrole Advantage system, so make sure your profile is up to date and ready to be viewed. If anything is missing, update it right away.
• Start exploring the new dashboards and looking at school profiles.
• Don’t forget to mark your calendar for upcoming ISS-Schrole Advantage recruitment fairs and iFairs®.
NOVEMBER (Peak Recruitment Season)
• Peak season is here--and you’ll be able to use ISS-Schrole Advantage to the fullest—Including being part of the recruitment fairs and iFairs®!
• We’ll be here along the way, as technology AND personalized service are central to what ISS-Schrole Advantage is about.

Please let us know if you have any questions. We are excited about ISS-Schrole Advantage - and are always here to help.
Happy job hunting!
The ISS-Schrole Advantage team"

There's nothing in there that suggests that there's any difference between ISS and Schrole candidates, and it's quite clear that as a Schrole candidate I get Fairs as part of the deal.

Re: Police check for UAE and criminal record

@PsyGuy The "more to the secrets" was in relation to the time-tr... never mind. If you don't get it I'm not going to explain it to you.

I'm done with this thread. There's too much talk of Cows, Zen Horses and Continuum's of Illegality ,which I am pretty sure is an imaginary construct. Some things are legal, some things are not. All if that is a distraction from the issue.

Don't fake your background check. It's Illegal, and it's stupid.

Re: Signing with ISS

@ Walter, Who is Dave?

@ teller I believe from what Search is saying that Apli is more of a system for schools to handle applications that something separate that we need to sign up for, and from what @radar is saying, Schrole and ISS have one fee that covers both, so if you've signed up for one you get the other as part of the deal.

Re: Police check for UAE and criminal record

@PsyGuy "He's living in the soviet union" - did he time travel back to the 1980's to do this? There's clearly more to whatever secrets he stole from the CIA's than meets the eye...

@chiliverde I completely agree. Aside from undermining the entire process of background checking that IS's have developed to protect students, and aside from the massive breach of trust that falsifying documents represents, there is no amount of money that would justify that risk. To suggest it's "all upside no downside" is naive at best, and flat-out stupid at worst.

Re: Signing with ISS

I must admit I am confused. I am looking to make my first overseas move (from Australia) and considered a few options before signing up with both Search and Schrole (and by extension, ISS if I'm understanding correctly) as between the two they seemed to have some good coverage of schools in SE Asia which is where I am hoping to end up (side note: Schrole has a few Australian International Schools advertised on their website, which I haven't seen much from elsewhere)

@Walter, when you say Search wont stand by and let "their" candidates apply though Schrole, what do you mean? Isn't it up to me how I apply? I thought signing up for both would be beneficial as it would give me more choice.

Re: Police check for UAE and criminal record

Surely there are no circumstances where faking a document of this importance would be a good idea, unless you have a burning desire to become intimately familiar with the inside of a Dubai jail cell. Suggest OP disregards PsyGuy's advice on this matter and takes the issue up with the school directly. @PsyGuy, what makes you think that advising someone to provide fake documentation is a good idea?
