What's the word on the Kanto International High School? Dealing with the so-called coordinator to get some answers about jobs there is like pulling teeth.

Glenski;

I interviewed with them at the JALT conference and will give the job a pass. Pay is mediocre (300-350,000 a month with a one month bonus once a year). Plus, they dont help with moving or housing expenses. This is death around Tokyo.

What is worse, they dont help out with pension or health insurance in any way. Considering the school is a SELHI I was shocked by that.

No pension or health insurance assistance for FT work? What is this, an eikaiwa, not a high school? Sheesh.

Any other opinions or experiences?

Hey Glenski. Just curious, did you have correspondence with a fellow there with the initials JH? He wanted me to submit some huge lesson plan for teaching reading, plus go to the school for an interview (paid for by me, of course).

I tried to get more information about the position, but was unsuccessful I was disappointed. I thought that SELHIs were a little better run than this. The salary and benefits are pitiful for the work they expect. Particularly by disobeying the law and ignoring pension plan/health insurance for employees. How do they get away with it?
