Hi all,

I was curious if anyone in Beijing has heard of a company named Intelbridge Education Corporation. Their president is Christine Kim. They are located in the Chaoyang District. I am speaking with them currently and wondering if anyone has had past experience with them. Thank you!

You've started 3 threads in a couple of weeks about the same company.

You gave the specifics of what they are offering in a previous thread and the uniform response was it's a crap deal. Move on.

Ask away, OP.

Ask for help, advice, and information as many times as you want.

The problem is that many of the uniform responses here are from the same group of regulars and old hands (shown by the number of posts), who rotate in and out of the mix on a continual basis, a list that includes a few curmudgeons (Who me? Never!) who may or may not have been banned.

Many threads asking for information on jobs and schools can go unanswered, because unless someone has direct knowledge of the job or school it's pretty much hearsay and/or speculation based on the experience, mindset, and perhaps mood of the current set of longtimers who contribute here on a regular basis.

My advice, as someone who's been intermittently following this site since his first year of teaching in 2002, is to remember to take everything written here with a fat grain of salt.

My motto, as a short-time regular poster (at least for now) is more about adding my two cents on ideas and topics that interest me or (IMO) need to be challenged, rather than trying to reproach others for general queries.

Telling someone to move on for trying to get more info. from someone, anyone, who hasn't yet responded or may have missed any previous posts (which, as I've mentioned, is unlikely) is about as grouselike as it gets!

How many threads per year start:
'Is it OK to come over on a tourist visa? My offer states the conversion can be done easily at any post office'.
Yeah annoying but you just have to get used to it.

I was simply asking again to get more responses to my question. I apologize for posting the same question, however I believe it was just fine. Thanks again Toast.
