Find out why you haven't been able to secure an overseas job. Yet!

What is the difference between a regular job hunt and an international one?
Because the overseas recruiting season is compressed recruiters have very little time to learn about the candidates.

Imagine, the overseas recruiters have a week or two to interview the whole pool of applicants! They have no time to explain the basics to you. They expect a certain level of preparedness. If you do not know what a CV, what questions to ask, how to negotiate a contract or how to submit your paperwork -- you can’t even have a meaningful conversation, not to mention winning any job offers!

What are my chances?
We receive a lot of emails asking the same question: What are my chances? In fact, you have no chances at all unless you stop asking and start applying!

Seriously, everyone has a chance if they begin to look. Most schools look for diversity so every personal situation has a potential to succeed. The real secrets is to be flexible!

For more specifics, please complete the Self Evaluation part of the Insider Secrets... this will allow you to estimate where your best best are and what your chances might be.

Yes, you may be a great teacher and you should use your potential to the fullest. Bear in mind, however, that the international schools have their specifics that dictate who gets hired and who goes home empty-handed. Oftentimes,  it is not the best teachers who get selected but rather those who demonstrate the ability to fit in.

This is what our program is all about -- to reveal the inner mechanics of the market and prepare you for the new overseas job.

How do I find these recruiters in the first place?
We discuss several strategies that prove to be successful year after year. You will have more information than you need. The ideal situation is when you order the program in advance so you have time to prepare. A lot of people wait until the very last moment and then realize that there is not enough time to implement the program. 

The two popular methods are: contact employers directly and respond to ads.

If you look for work at an established international school you should never wait for a relevant ad to appear. Here's why.

Because these schools are all listed in our Overseas Schools Directory (including names, email addresses, phone numbers, curriculum info, special ed. programs, facilities, enrollment, etc, etc.) most of these schools do not post job ads any more and looking for these posts is a big waste of time. We will show you how to use our  information to establish a relationship with the school.

It is essential if you want a good contract as the best jobs are NEVER advertised.

TIP. Do not ruin your chances by starting your letter (email, fax) with "TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN" Always use personal names and proper salutations from the Directory.

Responding to job ads.

Yes, we publish vacancies daily. See some examples. Responding to posts is the way to go when you are pressed for time and need to land a job quickly.

We also maintain LARGE amounts of archived vacancies, dating back to 2000. This is because jobs postings can be used very effectively for generating hot leads.

This is particularly true for administrative jobs, librarians, school psychologists and other schools specialists but most of all -- ESL jobs. Almost every European country has several thousand of commercial ESL schools. They rely on advertising, both online and offline.

The other employers are Christian schools, US military schools (US bases overseas), US government agencies (e.g. USIA), foreign government programs (JET- Japan);  international organizations (such as United Nations, UNISEF, Organization of Security and Cooperation in Europe)  and many other  private funds and programs.

Read the Chapter KNOW THY EMPLOYER before your even begin your search. You need to know the market to determine your best options. Ignorance is costly.  Information is power:

What is the biggest mistake?
Procrastination. A lot of people only dream about going overseas, never taking any action. Dreaming will not get you anywhere. Here's a good example. There is a small town in upstate New York that we visit every summer. Year after year we pass one house; there is this woman sitting on her porch, yawning. We have been around the world, with 2 dozen visas in our passports while she is still sitting there. We are all free to make our choices.

You must start as soon as possible, even though you do not plan to go overseas immediately. Start with exploring the Overseas Schools Directory. All reputable schools are listed. Not just names and addresses but comprehensive descriptions, curricular, country fact sheets, staff specialists, class sizes, enrollment, accreditation, etc.

Why do I need these details?
Because this information will give you a totally different view on what is available and where you should direct your efforts. You must be focused and organized. Preparation will save you from the agony of the last minute decisions.

What about the other resources, books, for example.
Use them! Of course they are twice as expensive, contain less information and do not come with any of the extras we offer: free online resumes, daily vacancies, direct support.  They are for reading. Our program is a practical tool for LANDING  jobs.

Why your program is so different?
Having taught overseas for many years, we distilled our experience and research into this  resource.

We believe that in the world of automation a personal approach will become more and more effective.

So we read and answer every email - using the keyboard, not an auto responder.

The webpages that we build for our customers (online resumes) are made by hand and so on.

What kind of people order the program?
We have an outstanding customer base. Teachers, students, ESL professionals, administrators, and just curious people. Because of the low price it is affordable to everybody. Where do people come from? Primarily USA, UK, Canada but also Australia, New Zealand as well as other countries.

Obviously, we receive tons of email, for example:

It has been a great pleasure to run this site. We are lucky that we have this kind of customers. Teachers, especially overseas teachers, know that the world is indeed small and those who have more friends ─win.

Kind regards,
