pschwart, I would be prepared to believe you won't have a job when you arrive here irrespective of the assurances you have with the recruiters with whom you are communicating. That being said, if you have a degree, a TESOl or Celta certifcate - and some teaching experience - you won't have a problem finding part-time work.
The New Hanoian Website posts jobs on a daily basis and Mekong ESL does likewise if you are going to HCMC.
If you don't mind teaching children, you'll be offered a lot of work. Don't make too many assumptions about the quality or longevity of the work you might be offered but rather regard it as a starting point. You might be lucky. You'll need to have an exit strategy should the new visa regulations adversely impact on you. |

Be wary of online job offers.
Think of it this way. Why would a school automatically want to hire someone outside of the country online? |

Why would a company offer a teaching position to anyone without qualifications knowing full well that the legal requirements have changed!
I would tell them that I accept the offer on the condition they pay for my travel costs up front (return, e-ticket), my visa, medical insurance, put me up in a 3 star hotel for a month. And a monthly income of US$1,800 NET.
Is this outfit recruiting tourists? |
