IB Film positions?

Hello everyone,

I have looked on Search and Tieonline, and I can't seem to find any position for a IB Film teacher. Does it mean that it is pretty difficult to find such a position? Am I looking at the wrong place? Is there ever any position advertised for this type of position?
Your opinions, insights and suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Film is not a very common IB offering at most schools. I've only worked at one school that offered it and it was only offered because a teacher already there pushed for it. According to the last IB statistical bulletin for the May session out of roughly 130,000 candidates, just over 2,000 took IB Film. I highly doubt a school would advertise for a Film position by itself. You are probably more likely to get into a school in a related position and then take over Film from a departing teacher or push to add the course offering.

Just saw a position on Search yesterday for an IB Film Studies position in International School of Beijing. I can't recall seeing many before though.
