Hi everybody. I'm new here. I was wondering if anybody has heard of a job website called www.esljobfinder.net before? I tried searching for reviews on it but didn't find anything on Google. I applied for two jobs in UAE and got an e-mail back right away saying that one job I applied for and another job (the first in Abu Dhabi teaching 6-12 year olds and the second in Dubai teaching 15-18 year olds) were willing to hire me and I just had to select the package plan and how they recommend package plan 2. I'm thinking it is a scam and since I left my cell number which doesn't work down here in the hills they won't be able to do anything but leave a voice message if they call at all as I recieved another e-mail today saying the two schools had already set up phone interviews (one for Feb. 16th and one for Feb. 20th). I tried searching last night for more jobs and came to see that none of these other job websites (Dave's ESL Cafe, Go Abroad) are not asking you to pay money to get hired so I am thinking it is a scam and not willing to take that chance. Has anybody heard of this company and gotten a job from them before?

A fool and their money are soon parted.

NEVER pay for a job in EFL, NEVER.

I got that same email today from esljobfinder. I also wondered why I, a non-EU member, and proud of it, was being offered work from everywhere from Iceland to Estonia. Well, I'm going to unsubscribe although I am sure I never subscribed in the first place, and I hope that will be the end of that.
