There was a thread about this same company not long ago. You could do a search.

But they primarily appear to be a travel agency or ticketing company that have decided to start recruiting for Chinese schools. Laughing

The advertisement IIRC was asking for a payment of 200 GBP for arranging the accommodation. As the accommodation is usually supplied FOC with teaching positions at state schools, this appears to be a scam. They do no arranging! They just find you a job (which they get paid for by the school) and the FAO at the school will do everything else.

I guess they even wangle the situation in such a way that they sell you the air ticket as well plus arrange tours for the FT's that they have placed at a cost.

Why would anyone want to use this company to find a job?

Don't pay them anything! Do the donkey work yourself using Google or, if you are really desperate, use a site like Angelina's but don't give this bunch anything!

I had the same question as you; Iv tried to research them but only their own website comes up. I sent them an email and they rang me saying i had to send my passport photo etc. I asked for a contact of someone who has worked for them and they sent me one after a few days, but he has not replied to my questions yet. I am suspicious.
