The International Schools Review Forum

Yesterday I was looking at the TIE website and was stunned to see that
this school no longer has as many listings for teacher positions
already!

I wonder, are Directors doing more early Skype interviews than ever
before ?

In any case, the job situation out there feels depressing.

Hi Missy,

schools like this tend to want to "lock in" any candidates early, to be assured they have teachers. Waiting until the fair means you might not get the quality you would like as you are now competing with other schools in much more desirable places.

You also need to consider that this is a relatively small school. They did not have a lot of openings to begin with. Look at BIS, or SAS (Shanghai) or DAA or DCS and you will see many more openings than were offered at the school you mention - and they are all in places with many more amenities and opportunities.

Just my 2 cents, of course.
