I'd concur with a lot of the comments here. If you're not interested in China then the e-mails can just be deleted. Personally, I'd say we are very lucky to work in an industry where this sort of thing is even considered a hassle. If things for me ever go pear shaped and I need a job ASAP then I know I can get something in China without too much sweat. China might not be high on the list of places where I want to live, but, I still find the fact that there are so many jobs out there reassuring. That's something that might come in very handy one day, although I hope it won't.

As a side note, I have an email address set up only for job seeking, so sometimes it does not have a lot of use or receive emails for a year or two while I am in my current position.

But you know what stinks? When you have a few interviews with schools you would like to work for. You check the inbox, see that "1" or "2" or what ever next to the inbox, you get all pumped, maybe it is one of the schools I skyped with.....No, just more junk unsolicited emails from China. Ya, in many ways job seeking is much easier, I get it. But still, when that little number is not what you are looking for..... I think some might know what I mean. Kind of like when you are 17 or 18 and waiting at the mailbox for acceptance letters from UNIs....Is it here today!!!.....bill, bill, junk, bill, UGH!
