C'mon Dave's surely a new board for China jobs?What do you lot think?

I think they are having serious difficulty getting people to come teach in China. Also, it is a very big country.

It sounds like a good idea. At a glance, I'd say about 3/4s of the job postings are China. It would be helpful to see the postings broken down by continent - or at least 'China' vs "The rest of the world".

You have my support. It would be nice if those China jobs were not on the main board.

On the international job board the 6th and 7th job ads down are for China Confused

Yeah, I noticed that too. Actually there's still a bunch of them. It's probably just temporary though, like everything else in the universe, hopefully.

Completely agree, give the Chinese jobs their own space

I agree. I always have to scroll down past all of those China jobs... (No offense to those of you who work there and/or love the place, but I did a summer there and that was enough!)

If Korea is a big enough source of jobs to merit its own forum or job site, then surely China is, too!

too bad the search function on the job board doesn't have a "not" or "without" variable. Then we'd be able to filter out all kinds of garbage.

I myself find the board less and less useful in my personal emplyment search, though for certain sectors It's a godsend.
