No, my partner isn't looking at any unis there for his study at the mo. Only applied to Singapore so far and am waiting for HK jobs to come up.

Hi all,

I've been on the international scene for quite a few years now, and at my current post I picked up an African partner and a daughter! We're now looking to move on and my partner is planning to do his Masters. Am curious as to whether my new status will affect my employability...any thoughts?

I applied and also haven't heard anything. Fingers crossed.

I'm finding this really interesting. I tried to reactivate my profile just this week. I originally registered about 18 months ago, then quickly found a job separately from SA. I never went to any job fairs, and maybe looked at a handful of schools. I also thought the fee would be good for three years, as I had not found a job through SA. Apparently not. I was sent an invoice for the full registration fee again. I emailed to query this - have to say, I was annoyed and my email wasn't incredibly polite (whoops!). The reply I received was scathing. Really quite nasty. Told me maybe if I thought their fees were high then I am probably not best suited to their organisation or something along those lines. Personally, I think there is a difference between "registration" and "profile activation" and that this should be reflected in their fee (I told them this). Anyway, needless to say I won't be using them again. I could never be certain my associate was actually trying to help me, when he obviously doesn't like me very much!

Has anyone heard anything about St Joseph's school (the elementary, not the high school)? I know it's only been open a few years but can't seem to find anything on it??? Thanks.
