Hello Everyone!

I am a certified teacher looking for a job in Indonesia which would begin in approximately one month. I am interested in teaching with a National Plus school, that will sign teachers on for one year. I want to stay away from Jakarta and Medan. I have tried the Jakarta Post online, but can't seem to locate the classifieds--is it possible to view teaching vaccancies with JP online. If anyone has any information, I would greatly appreciate you help.

Regards, tass1

Thanks ls650,

I have sent my resume to many of the school listed on:

I am hoping for the best, as I have just sent my applications off recently, but I may be just another piece of paper to the school directors and I hear that they like to meet thier teachers in person (a wise practise), before they sign them on. I am hoping that some of you may have information about specific schools that are hiring. If anyone knows of anywhere that I can find online job postings for National Plus schools, that also would be helpful. I check daves, and tefl.com. on a daily basis, but I have seen a National Plus school listed only once.

Thanks again

Hi, you've selected not such a good time to apply to National Plus. The school year begins in June or July. So most schools wouldn't hire someone in February/March as the year would be close to over. If you don't mind sitting it out a little, I'd imagine you're best hope would be to find a position beginning in the new school year.

Also, National Plus do most of their recruiting at recruitment fairs in Western nations.

Good luck

Thanks for the information Rayman, it is very helpful, but disheartening. If only one could turn back the clock.
