I have to agree with you this time! If that's all there is to it, I'd be surprised if they got any takers. Do you have a link to a job posted with this salary?

I just remembered, I walked by a window of an English classroom of the CNCI in D.F., and saw on the board a list of words in English with their Spanish translations. If that's the way they do it, I guess anyone who can speak English will suffice!

That wins the prize as worst pay. I hope they at least advertised it as a salary and you deduced the hourly rate? What's the breakdown?

A wise man once said that to only look at the hourly wage shows a distinct lack of critical thinking.

I've never heard of this institution of higher learning. What does CNCI stand for? Is it a real university or just a higher-level trade school masquerading as one?

It's main market are those that didn't finish prepa and want to finish it quickly without actually studying - you pay, you pass o sea the Mexican education system in its crudest form.

It sounds worse than I had imagined. If its main market are those wanting to finish prepa, why does it call itself a university?

A quick glance at the first page of the website shows that it has two prepa programs and another offering licenciaturas online. Wow, what a university it must be!
