Job applications - difficult/easy/quick/slow?
Posted: 12 Nov 2012, 07:26
Hey guys.
So I have some questions and would appreciate any help.
Switching from being a high school English teacher to an English language teacher next year. Myself and my girlfriend were accepted into a CELTA course in Thailand beginning in January. We plan to spend the month after completing the course just doing a bit of travel before hopefully finding a job in Korea or maybe Japan.
What is the application process like for getting work? Are there typically quite a few positions available and is the process generally quite fast?
Can we expect to find a job and (successfully) apply for it within a month of getting our qualifications, or should I be applying for jobs now, before I have the CELTA certificate with the expectation I will get it? Are language schools ok with this?
Any information, anecdotes, or dirty jokes are appreciated.
Thanks.
