I see that on a certain recruiting site that Mr Abdul Majid Majali is looking to recruit a language centre Manager.

Parts of the criteria read:

1. Experience: "No experience required"

2. Qualifications: "A recognised Bachelor Degree, M.A. in TESOL is an advantage."

Money is good though

i saw the ad but maybe from a different site (tefl.com), here's what it says about experience:

<quote>

Qualifications

A recognised Bachelor Degree, M.A. in TESOL is an advantage.

At least two years equivalent full-time experience in
administration of teaching programs;

Five years equivalent full-time teaching experience in
English Language programs (TESOL/EFL);
Sound experience in the area of IELTS and TOEFL preparation;

A mature understanding of the problems encountered by
language students, and a demonstrated ability to provide
the support they require;

Sensitivity to multicultural issues in a teaching and
working environment;

<end quote>

pay does look good but after reading all the negative posts about the recruiter, wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole...

...er... could it be that he knows he's washed up and needs a pseudo manager in his office to recruit under a fresh name while he still runs things? Hence, no experience necessary?

Caveat Emptor.

May I join y'all????
