Can anyone tell me how difficult it is to find work and accommadation in Nanjing. Should I organize this before I arrive in China or should I wait until I get there. |

I think Nanjing is an up-and-coming place! It used to be a backwater, but it has successfully attracted a lot of European investments, and there are international schools too. It's not too far from Shanghai - provided you were nt thinking of Nanning, Guangxi.
Housing should be provided by your employer! |

now I live nearby and visit often
It is great.
It still looks Chinese, but had a lot of foreign studentd and teachersthere so they are 'used to' foreigners.
It looks lovely, had a good history and a great social scene.
There are too many jobs for the teachers, so you will get offered them just walking down the street. Or if not, as aroubnd at the main universities and foreign students' dorms.
However, if you wan tto arrange it in advance, try
