Thank you for the feedback.

I recently decided to give ISS a try instead of Search this time. Their prompt reply to questions and personal attention is excellent, but I do have questions. A friend of mine is signed up with Search and keeps telling me of job postings that I don't see on ISS. I set down with him to look, and sure enough on my top ten list of schools, six of them have jobs posted in my field on Search but not on ISS. Has anyone else had this problem or know why?

I also looked at the number of schools going to the Search Cambridge job fair, over a 120, and the number of schools going to the ISS Atlanta fair, less than 40. Does anyone have any insights into why such a dramatic difference in the number of schools attending?

I have had four schools I applied to through ISS email me and ask me to apply for the job through their school's site if I wanted to be considered. I thought one of the points of ISS and Search was that schools could evaluate your credentials without you having to directly apply to every school. Of course, I don't mind doing this I just don't understand why. I taught abroad in the past but have been home for several years now; it has been nearly eight years since I applied for teaching jobs overseas. Maybe this is the way it works now. Any insights?
