I should add, my SA contact proposed having trailing spouse come to SA fair, to see how things go. She is not registered with SA and he recommended that she did not register. However he thinks having her at the fair may work out.

Anyone else done this? Curious as to how this worked (or not) for others.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for the link to the blog post. I read it a while ago although it's good to refresh my thoughts on this. I am after fairly specific information for my situation and would appreciate any particular insights from forum members.

Regards,

Hello,

What are our chances of trailing spouse being offered employment at an IS? Particularly here in Asia.

I have researched air quality indices in China. From my experience of visiting in winter, travelling through Beijing, Shanghai, Xian, Guangzhou, and a number of 'tier two' and 'tier three' cities, it all seemed a bit grim i.e. polluted air.

If I had to work in China, what would be the least polluted city? From what I gather, Xiamen is amongst the best (least polluted), whereas Beijing amongst the worst. What about Shanghai? Particularly interested in hearing perspectives from those who've lived there more than a year.

When I left China after a three week tour (singing) - mostly in Shanghai, Hangzhou, Guanghzhou - not only I, but most of my fellow singers came away with a persistent cough that wouldn't go away for months. Horrible!

Hi PsyGuy. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks Sitka.

I am also subscribed to the TES Jobs, so that seems to cover (mostly British schools) jobs that haven't been listed on SA although there is also some double up. I figured that would be similar to TIE.

I am a registered and active SA candidate, starting to contact schools through the SA portal and through emails / school recruitment portals.

My question is, is it also worth subscribing to TIE Online and posting in their resume bank?




In short, have (a little) international experience and seeking positions in Asia.
