I heard its a pleasant medium-sized city and would prefer that to chaotic Istanbul.

Yes you are that wrong. You will get the story that you must have or create you own work visa...Ect.... Or it's we want to hire you , but we only have 8 hours a week.. So, unless you are rich don't bother.. Izmir is the same too. Actually Turkey has reall gone down hill.. Looking to leave..

It is not like that in every school. There are really good schools and they handle everything properly or at least they tell you what to do before you start work. Turkey is not going downhill but some EFL teachers do not know how to sell themselves! They need US and let them know that they do. If they want qualified and experienced EFL teachers, they have to get them with teachers' terms as well as theirs.
