Hey guys,

This may be a bit of a newb question but when is the best time to apply for a teaching position beginning in March 2007? My last uni exam will be sometime in February so I cannot guarantee I will get to China before March. I'm assuming it would be now but just want to double check.

Thanks

Now's a good time to start the application process. If you look right here at Dave's job advertisements you'll see many schools are advertising for teachers to start March 1st. Most schools won't want you here much earlier than March 1st because so many administrators are on holiday until the end of February. Don't wait until Feb. to apply because most everyone's gone for the holiday.

And because of the holiday this year I think school starts back either the end of febuary or right at the beginning of march.
