If you were hired by ECC, please read on. because i was... and here i sit! I was hired by ECC in November of 2008. I was actually hired by 2 different companies but picked ECC because they seemed better. Well, after a year and a half of shoddy communication and waiting they just cut all of us from that 2008 hiring session that were not placed loose. They even had ANOTHER hiring session in San Francisco in November 2009... basically those of us who passed their test and were hired by them were just thrown away like so much trash. When i contacted the man that hired me asking if i could just re-sign a new contract and remain with ECC i got no response. The Toronto office said �sorry, you will have to re-apply� and also very coyly said �we are not even doing a hiring session in the US in 2010� of course not... you JUST did one in November 2009, AND you are now hiring exclusively out of Toronto. So now i am a year older, and so saddened by the experience. All of the applicants that were hired and not placed really went through a year of hell waiting and waiting.
So i warn you all! if you are hired by ECC do not stop applying with the other schools... because they have no loyalty to you. I am trying very hard not to be bitter but after a year of waiting and hoping and loyalty the company does NOTHING to reward that loyalty. Very underhanded and sneaky business practices. I could have really been a good caring teacher for them... could have been.

I'm a little confused. You worked for them for a year? Or you waited for a year for them to get back to you? In which case, why would anyone wait a year for a teaching job?

If this is the ECC in Japan, perhaps you should repost in the Japan forum.
