Seems almost impossible to get hired, but I guess once you do then you have experience for the next one.
Is everyone who gets hired for these an MBA with blonde hair and a hillary clinton suit?[/img]

MBA certainly helps but a BA in business + TEFL will usually do the trick (especially for someone without EFL experience).

In that game it is all about connections (usually made by being here and working in a hagwon for your first year).

You'll get some part time work - to see if you can actually do it, then get offered a more lucrative position.

I have several years experience here. In my 5th yr now.
Must be the connections thing. I'll look into PT first

Although I don't know about this specific market; almost everything in NE Asia is a connections thing.
