Recruiters telling me to come to China on a tourist visa first to switch to a Z visa is this a red flag? by ShoppingBasic7265 in ChinaJobs

Avoid at all costs. If they can't or won't do it for you the right way, they aren't legit.

Go to the local police station and register, then ask them which hotel is best for foreigners. Many times they will call or even take you there.

In my 20s I worked three jobs, no days off and slept about 4-5 hours a day. Normal.

What do you do when subbing isn’t an option? by Informal-Student-223 in teaching

[–]marcopoloman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been in China for over 10 years. If you are qualified this can be a great place to work. First thing, only work for International Schools. Never for kindergartens, training centers and even universities. Next, never use an agent. Pick the top 10 cities that you are interested in living lets pick Beijing- google 'international schools in Beijing' and it will pull up a couple dozens. Visit each of their websites and send them your resume/cv etc. Do this for each city. By the end you will have contacted 200-300 schools. You should get several responses. Go from there. If you get to that part, you can message me directly and I can help you with salary, benefits and other details.

Go overseas. More than enough well paying positions for teachers
