WARNING! Do not go abroad or even apply for an overseas job until you read this page! Surprisingly, many people believe that the easiest way to secure overseas positions is to respond to a job ad. Yes, we post a lot of international vacancies, actually we post them daily. However, do not rely exclusively on job ads! These candidates are no competition to seasoned international educators. Here's why...  Employment ads have a very high rejection level. And many of those jobs aren't that great. Consequently, a lot of people compete for a limited number of mediocre jobs -- missing out on great opportunities available elsewhere. Do you want to know where the real jobs are? There are about 35,000 American, Australian, NZ, British and Canadian teachers working overseas right now. They change schools and countries every 2-4 years, moving from Athens to Rome, Tokyo to Rio de Janeiro and so on. These are rewarding positions, with established international schools, offering comfortable tax-free salaries, great benefit packages including life/health/emergency insurance, free round trip airfare, yearly home leave, free housing and utilities, pension plans, bonuses, etc. The family atmosphere of these schools create outstanding conditions for professional growth. Are you interested?  You can have access to these jobs within minutes! We post new vacancies every 24 hours and you can use them to apply for work in 5 minutes! (We'll explain it in a few paragraphs.) But before you reply to the first vacancy ad  please read the whole program! Understanding of the overseas teaching market is what makes the international recruiters LOVE our candidates.

Split from the frenzied desperate crowd and  become a shrewd, savvy overseas teacher who succeeds by using the insider info and active methods.  We will show you exactly how... AND we'll give you the tools to go out and do it -- immediately.

And the four essential rules to success are... Rule #1. Do not re-invent the wheel! If you try to, you are taking a big risk. Model your job search after our proven methods that have been successful for us and MANY other people to boost your chances. We've taught in Europe for 8 years and there is little we don't know about the trade. Simply follow our guidelines + respond to our job ads, and you will be employed sooner than you may think!  The bottom line? Get the information BEFORE you apply for specific positions! Even many experienced overseas teachers do not know all their options. Rule # 2. The longer you wait, the more opportunities you will lose Do it now. Because "later" will soon be too late. There are visa procedures, recruiters' flights and relocation hassles so the international recruiting starts early in the year and the timeline is compressed! So let's get it right the first time. Rule #3. Do not fall victim to simple, inexcusable mistakes! Some people apply several times before they succeed. Oscar Wilde put it this way,  "I am not young enough to know everything." This is unbelievable but the hard cold facts are... Up to 90% of all new candidates are grounded by simple, inexcusable mistakes!  Such as:  not knowing their best options applying with the wrong schools missing deadlines ignoring international formats sending untargeted CVs interviewing poorly, etc., etc. -- these are preventable problems, there is simply no excuse for them.  Rule #4. There is no Rule #4. Read Rule 1, 2 and 3 again. What's the single most important thing you can do to land a great overseas contract? Hey, you always ask the right question at the right time...  If you are like us you tend to procrastinate. Believe us, this is the worst possible mistake you could make. Nothing compares to it! Thousands of opportunities are lost every year because of procrastination. Why is procrastination such a killer mistake? --Good question! The schools we are talking about are overseas. They do not have the luxury to interview you in your area - at your convenience!  They have deadlines. Their recruitment options are limited. You must be available at the right place at the right time.  You need a time cushion. Otherwise you will miss your boat! Remember, you must sign your contract early enough to have time for visas and relocation. Do you begin to see why so many good candidates fail? They start TOO LATE! It's not about sending your CV -- there's a whole process involved. Do not procrastinate.  Start your search NOW!  How exactly do I "start"? --Glad you asked!  First of all you need to learn about the overseas teaching market and how it operates. Study the specifics, define your priorities and follow the proven paths. If you do it right there is no way to fail. Most inexperienced candidates head in the wrong direction: they look exclusively for "free" job ads. Of course, we post lots of ads, too -- and oftentimes the offers are great.  Sometimes job ads are the only option, for example,  late in the season when the "regular" recruiting channels are closed.  Or, when you need to go abroad right away -- and you are ready to take up a job in any country - whatever is available. That's why we post our daily job announcements. However, if you want the best contracts in the countries YOU want -- use our ACTIVE methods! Do not rely exclusively on ads -- most great offers are not even announced! We will show you how to get these jobs; this is what The Insider Secrets to Finding a Teaching Job Overseas is all about. Right now, at this very moment, someone is using our resources to land a new exciting overseas position.

A special section is dedicated to the new Guerilla Methods. We will guide your though the design of your international CV to maximize your recruiting power (and pinpoint the deadweight that weakens most resumes). You will learn about the specific differences that exist in many cultures -- and how people sabotage their chances by ignoring them. Learn on their mistakes, not yours! We will walk you through  your application process and show you how to follow up on the schools of your choice. You will learn how to maintain visibility in the crowd of other candidates. Remember that your are competing against those who have applied and those who will apply - as long the vacancy is open. We will explain how to work with schools that do not advertise their openings and how to bypass the expensive recruiting firms. We will show you how to interview, what questions to expect, what their real meaning is, how to handle the interview and what to ask your interviewer (many opportunities are lost because people ask ridiculous questions)  You will learn what is going on in the recruiter's mind when he/she is  making a hiring decision and how to motivate a slow recruiter. You will discover how relatively easy landing an overseas contract can be!
