Shanghai Wenlai IS-Strange HR

Post by derPhysik »

Found posting for this job through JoyJobs. Sent an e-mail with my CV at about 2AM. I've been staying up at night to filter and answer e-mails from other international schools. John H. cold calls me at 2:30, puts me on conference call with Sam H, and conducts a 40 minute phone interview. This is for a Physics/Chemistry/Biology/Math position. It goes well. The next day I send in scanned copies of my transcripts, certificate, and credentials, and a list of questions about the school, position, and package. (they want to know if I can be there by Feb 23).
Response from them? A couple of pages from someone's syllabus with 3 AP Calculus problems! Sam H. wants me to solve them in 24 hours, and send him my results to check my competency! Is that strange, or is that standard for the international schools racket? I'm a 13 year teacher, by the way, and only certified in Physics.
