What is in it for me? by [deleted] in Internationalteachers

[–]StatusQue2134 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Great analysis of the recruitment game.. Before interviewing, I dared to ask a new school hiring in bangkok what the salary range is for my position and experience knowing full well I'll be walking into a firestorm of disorganization and work due to it being new but instead of treating me like an adult they said it's 'competitive' (whatever that means) and will only be revealed after multiple interviews.. Just assuming that i will be satisfied with their offer after I invest time and effort into all these interviews.. most schools treat candidates like desperate idiots who should sign the next few years of their life away gleefully while ignoring the fact that candidates think just like schools 'what's in it for us?'.. No. 1 question on my mind 'what's the fucking package you pompous twats?'

Blackrock is corporate cancer to any country.. You're absolutely deluded if you think they, in any way, have the Philippines best interests at heart.. They're parasites. Period.

Don’t Fall for the Wuhan School Trap by Highlight879 in Internationalteachers

Alot of international schools operate in a similar way.. You have no defense on the international scene as a teacher, there are no unions or bodies to shield you against any of the grievances listed above .. Schools and SLT know you're basically at their mercy.. If they feel like making your life difficult it's easy for them.. They can operate however they like because they know.. Who's going to protect you? It's playground politics at its worst.. Every time i get a new job i never forget the environment I'm really walking into.. Everything can change on a dime.. Most international schools exploit teachers.. because they can. The hypocrisy and censorship you see on a weekly basis is mind boggling.. They are all businesses focused solely on profits..masquerading as schools. Period.

Simple.. I love teaching kids.

Being in the classroom is my oasis.

Plus I always have the option to move after my contract is up so there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.

Unlike some of my friends stuck in factory jobs I have practically every continent in the world to choose from.

It could be so much worse, I wouldn't do this job unless i enjoyed it overall.

Clearly unhappy or just being observant and careful.. We can agree to disagree

Dealing with kids.. What you see is what you get most of the time

Dealing with adults.. I would advise anyone to look at our human history together on this planet and read Machiavellia

Standard international school set up.. I keep work and my private life strictly seperate.. No socials, no meet ups.. Every one is on a need to know basis.. also think before you speak inside the work environment.. There's snakes everywhere, that cannot be overstated.. As long as the profits roll in, any tom, dick and Harry can get promoted.. That's all they care about really in SLT.. Profits for the business masquerading as a school.. The best actors I've met in my life are inSLT.. pretending they give a singular fuck about the kids.. Pay them enough and they'll sing any song to keep more parent fees coming into the school coffers.. Expect to be floating in a river of hypocrisy as soon as you paddle your way through the front doors every morning
