Hi!

I was just wondering if anyone knew if it was normal to be offered a job without an interview. I also havnt been answered about the level of my potential students (though not for lack of trying).
I've been offered 3800, housing, and partial air but need to take care of my own visa. Is this normal (in chengdu) for a newbie with no degree? I know its not a lot... but is it enough I wonder...

Thanks a lot for any help!

Post this in the China job forum (assuming chengdu is in China) ... and I'll tentatively suggest that you don't spend any money just yet.
Good luck.

They probably made similar offers to a dozen newbies like you, and just hope at least two will come over.
The one that sets his foot first on their threshold gets the job.
The other one will have do go elsewhere!
