A huge thanks to the awesome candidates and schools who attended the job fair in Atlanta in December.
Applications to attend the Atlanta job fair are now closed. However, you can find and apply for upcoming job fairs and hiring events by visiting our events page today!
From December 3 - 5, 2017, over 60 international teaching candidates converged in sunny Atlanta, USA, for the chance to interact, connect and interview with hiring representatives from over 75 of the world’s top international schools.
We wanted to thank each of you who participated and made the Atlanta job fair a resounding success, for both our teachers and schools alike! Here’s just a few of the outstanding candidates who walked away with their dream teaching job abroad at the fair:
Irma is a qualified teacher from Toronto, Canada. She taught for a year at an International School in China. Having experienced teaching abroad, she enjoys making the process easier for first-time overseas teachers.
Ash heads up the recruitment team at Teach Away and has worked extensively in recruitment with international teachers, schools and ministries of education around the world.
“I think networking is great at these fairs. Even if there isn’t a position for you right now, there is the opportunity to meet with different schools and make the connection and talk to them opens many doors. I would definitely come back, this has opened up a world of new knowledge for me. I’ve never been to a job fair like this but it has been great!”
“I attended this fair because I have coworkers who have found jobs through ISS and Teach Away, so they passed on the positive recommendation. It was a great opportunity to meet a lot of different schools at once. I have nothing but amazing things to say about this experience.”
“I appreciate all of the information, perspective and opportunities that came from this conference. The networking has been great. I’ve met a ton of quality people and gotten a lot of helpful information. I would definitely come back.”
“You get the opportunity to meet a bunch of international schools and see what they are offering/looking for. You also get to meet a lot of other teachers from across our country. I would definitely attend another one of these conferences again.”
As a candidate, it was really valuable for me to see the school presentations before my interviews. Researching online is great, but being able to get that face-to-face time with hiring schools, who can give me insight into what it’s like to teach in their region, was key for me. I would attend this fair again in a heartbeat!
