CV: they didn't answer me either. I had asked a few questions previous to submitting the application that were always answered in a timely fashion and when I sent the application I got a mere "Thank you" and never heard from them again.

Well, I asked just last week if I should just do a resubmission since I had more information...like passport info and also mentioned how I was in the process of taking my Praxis I test.

I did a resubmission. I just put in the body of the e-mail why I was resubmitting the application and was just honest about it, like how things have changed since originally submitting it almost a month ago.

I hope I get some brownie points for that. The main thing I changed, though, was my essay and added in that I was currently an ESL Volunteer Teacher.

Anywho, like you said, I am trying to play up my strengths and all that, but I just hope that I'm not being a nuisance to them, which is why I was hesitant to resubmit it in the first place.

I really am interested in JES, though. I hope I do manage to get contacted for an interview. I wonder how they actually do them or what's expected. How does one do a phone interview or a skype interview anyway? Seems it'd be difficult to figure all that's needed just through a phone interview.
