I work a private class with this outfit, but I have not been able to contact them for a few days. Does anyone know if they have gone the way of the dodo?

Thanks.

Personally, I'd stop doing this private until you contact them.
Have you seen any money from the yet?

I just talked to my contact at Worldhunt, and she quit a week or so ago. It would seem that they have indeed gone out of business. I hope I am wrong, but it does not appear so.

didnt know they had gone bust. had a call from them a couple of weeks ago asking about public school positions. they had a nice group of staff there actually. i think their number was up from last year though. they had the contract to do the gimhae public school circuit. they advertised the full public school holidays and no camps. after they had interviewed and gave out contracts to all the teachers it seems gimhae turned around and scrapped all those vacations and put camps in instead. naturally a ton of the teachers tore up their contracts so i think they were screwed and couldn't find enough people in the end to fill them all which must have cost them a lot of money and face with the education board.

Yeah gimhea contracts were nice I almost worked there. @ month prior notice of camp or no camp clause was sweet.

Any who it turns out my school might do just one camp and not two.

This situation is getting weirder; the company I work for called Worldhunt today and got through no problem, but when I tried to call, still no answer. It has now been over two weeks with no contact, and my pay date is up coming and they still do not have my banking information to pay me. So it appears the company is still around; maybe.

Do you think they might be screening their calls?
