Re: From Classroom to Administration

Lehigh University, University of Florida, and University of Minnesota all have online programs with summer visits needed for admin degrees. BTW..even if you need an internship, most schools/principals are willing to help you with that.

Re: Schools with good benefits package in Malaysia?

I'm in Malaysia now...maybe two schools that MIGHT come close....ISKL or Alice Smith...neither of those schools have housing that you're looking for nearby...you'd need to commute. The EPF in Malaysia helps you save...but you don't get the money until you leave the country.

Attesting Documents

I'll be in the US for 6 weeks this summer. Do you think that is enough time to get birth certificates and my marriage license attested?

Re: Updates from Bangkok

One of the biggest issues we had as a couple were all the jobs/contracts that got handed out at the ISS fair the 4 days prior to Search...really put a dent in the hiring process for my partner and I. We got jobs, but it was a real anxiety ridden process this time.

Re: Tattoos and clothes

At the fair, wear professional attire and cover the tats. Once you're hired, find out about the school culture and go from there.

Diverse Schools in China

Which schools would you say are the most internationally diverse in China? SAS, ISB.... not included please...Also is SCIS for profit or non? The site claims non profit status, but the reviews state otherwise...

Re: Fair Question

I used Search and went to the BOS the first time out. It was definitely worth it for the database alone and having the confidential references right there.

Re: Recruiting Help!

This is especially true if you're a newbie to IT. Schools will want to meet you face to face. Don't be shocked if you don't hear anything until the fair. It's beyond frustrating, but stick with it.

Individual School Fairs

I'm noticing a school in HK having their own fair in November? This seems new. Is it their way of avoiding Search/ISS fairs the fees? Do you think it's worth attending if it's a school you really want?

Re: Global Recruitment Collaborative, Dubai Fair

It looks promising, but you either have to be currently or previously employed by a school in its current database to join.

Re: Expat Life in India

My question is not about the schools..pretty happy with that. I'm interested in knowing about how the local population feels about expats in New Delhi and Chennai...

Expat Life in India

What can you tell me about living in India for an expat? I'm applying to two schools there. Some of my friends are saying that expats are treated badly there is that true? What can you tell me? All the forums I've seen and reviews don't mention this.

Re: Best Summer Plans?

We rented a house this summer near the beach for us and about 30 minutes from family...I used online real estate sites and finally settled on a local one....
