[quote="Rover"]Just a thought - Should you really pay a recruiter to find you a job? Shouldn't they be getting their money from the employer like most recruitment consultants? Or are International Schools that different?

Just an idea. Do you really need them if you contact schools directly? For example isn't it also possible (but less easy I admit) to arrange face-to-face interviews with schools outside the fairs?[/quote]

Absolute rubbish the search people. getting cash from teachers and shoddy schools-total ripoff!

1) Would anybody be interested in contributing to a journalistic piece on the exploitation/bullying of teachers in international schools?

2) Ditto for the "trap" set for unsuspecting individuals at flashy recruitment fairs where "cash cows" posing as schools are fronted by well known recruitment agencies?
