Filtering out the TEFL riff-raff

Was just looking at the IATEFL jobseekers page (via the great BESIG yahoo group). There are no jobs on there yet, but advertising with IATEFL sounds like a great way of avoiding the kind who still hang around at Tosser Dave’s ESL Cafe, doesn’t it?

Any other great ways of avoiding applications from the waster side of our “profession”?

    Likewise with the English Australia website in Oz Alex..

    (I am reliably told that EF Sydney is not as ass-backwards as the rest of the chain before someone notices and calls me on it!)

    Hi Alex,

    Do you mean that the IATEFL Jobs Market is a good way of filtering out riff-raff employers, or a good way for employers to filter out “waster” teachers?

    Thanks

    Eric

    Like CP’s comment continues with (thanks CP!), I meant a way of schools avoiding applications from waster teachers

    I take it back. Job number six is an ad by EF China (who are at least as ass-backwards as the rest of the chain) full of odd grammar mistakes:

    tesl.org
    chronicle
    higheredjobs

    are good.

    eslcafe.com still has a couple good jobs.
