Posted: Fri Dec 23, 2005 2:26 pm Post subject: Tet hiring slowdown |
|
|
I was in HCMC for six weeks last March and April and was pleasantly surprised by what I saw and experienced. Now, four countries and nice slice of early retirement later, i've decided to head back to HCMC and teach English.
My question: this is late Dec. and Tet is two weeks away. I know teacher hiring slows significantly around the Tet Holiday, but I don"t know for what time frame. So, my question is, approximately how many weeks before and after the actual week of Tet celebration is the hiring significantly effected?
thanks for your help |

Everything comes to a complete standstill for a week or so during Tet and things are slow before and after.
Most teachers take trip somewhere as there will be at least a few days where classes are cancelled and again everything slows down.
Obtaining a position is probably not effected greatly, but actually working won't likely start until after Tet. |
