Schools with largest expat teacher population?

Which international schools outside of native English speaking countries do you think have the largest number of expat teachers employed? I'd love to hear regardless of any other criteria.

I have worked with ISS once before. I attended one of their fairs in Bangkok as a teacher. I'm not giving any details but I can't stand ISS. I'll never go with them again.

That is what I came across, that people registering in the UK did not have to pay the SA fee. I wonder if you have to be physically located in the UK to take advantage of that.

Nice that you could archive your payment so you did not have to pay again. I would like to take a look at what is available and info at SA even when I am not actively looking for a contract at a different school. But I don't want to have to pay the fee again and again.

Search A. fee inconsistencies and associate choice

I have had a teacher's profile at Search Associates for some years now. When I need my profile activated for a job search I contact my associate and pay my fee to him. But now I hear some teachers don't pay any fee when they have their profile reactivated. So here are some questions we may all benefit from hearing their answers.

1. Do some associates not charge a fee for activating your profile? Which associates? Do fees vary among associates?

2. Is it possible to switch from one associate being linked to your profile to another associate at any time?

3. How important is it that it be your associate running and being present at the job fair you plan to attend?
