A few entries that we would like to highlight:<\/p>\n New Staff Orientation<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cThe next morning bright and early at 8.30 am a fancy Dulwich College Suzhou.<\/p>\n The coach pulls up at my compound (you can see some of the fleet more than 30 school coaches in the background of the school grounds here). I was sooo tired after my journey the previous day encompassing three airports, two flights and over 24 hours travelling. At least I wasn\u2019t the only one-there were 35 new hires on board equally bleary-eyed. Off we went to get our SIM cards for China.<\/p>\n Then it was off for lunch with the Headmaster and some of the rest of the staff, followed by a shopping trip to WalMart for housewares and food! I sure wasn\u2019t expecting to go shopping in a store that is so familiar to me.<\/p>\n The following day the coach took us to an Ikea store (another big surprise for me that this store was in China) for anything else we wanted for our apartments. What a hoot seeing sleeping babies in the show-rooms with equally exhausted adults! I\u2019m impressed with the care the school is taking to settle us new staff-members in.\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n New teacher orientation is super important! \u00a0All international school aim for a smooth transition for their new hires.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Want to read more about some new teacher orientation must-haves at international schools? \u00a0Check out our popular blog category called “New Teacher Orientation Must-Haves<\/a>.”\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n International\u00a0Substitute Teaching<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n \u201cI got my current job as an English B teacher at Chatsworth International School in Singapore through an agency called True Teaching. This was a very different experience than the \u2018meat market\u2019 feeling of the large recruiting fair \u00a0I went to in London for my job in China. Instead I registered with True Teaching for their Flying Squad for International Substitute\/Supply teaching. After a personal interview with Skype online I was offered several overseas placements and accepted my job in Singapore.<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.trueteaching.com<\/a>\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n It is good to know how an international school does to hire new teachers. It gives you great insight on how YOU can get a job there!\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n Want to learn more about how\u00a0international school teachers get hired at international schools around the world? \u00a0Luckily, we have a comment topic on our school profile pages related to this theme called\u00a0“Describe their hiring policies. Which recruiting fairs do they go to? How do they typically hire (e.g. face-to-face interview, Skype, etc.)? Are there any hiring restrictions mandated by the country?”<\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0Here are a few\u00a0examples of comments from this topic:<\/p>\n ‘The school has a low turnover of teachers and does not participate in recruiting fairs. The Director responds to cv’s received from whatever source. Teacher qualification is required. Experience with Scottish curriculum ideal.’ –\u00a0New International School of Japan <\/a>(Tokyo, Japan)<\/span> – 16 Comments<\/strong><\/p>\n ‘There are many internal hires (e.g. local hires) that happen at CIS. These are candidates that have been substitute teachers here for a year or so. Vacancies pop up here all the time, so the local candidates are very eager to secure full time positions (e.g. continuing contracts).’ –\u00a0Copenhagen International School <\/a>(Copenhagen, Denmark)<\/span> – 231 Comments ‘The previous school director attended the Search Associates recruiting fair in London. The new director has used the CIS website, Search Associates website, and the school’s website to post the new vacancies at the school.’ –American School of Bilbao <\/a>(Bilbao, Spain)<\/span> – 10 Comments<\/strong><\/p>\n ************************************ \u2022\u00a0ACS (International) Singapore <\/a>(Singapore, Singapore)<\/span> – 10 Comments Additionally, there are 41 International School Community members who currently live in South Korea.
