Teaching in Dubai

[Lewy1983]

I've been actively look since end of January and have applied for a few jobs. Unfortunately not had an interview. I've decided to branch out further afield and am now looking for jobs outside the UAE as well, as I really want new experiences abroad!

Hi I've been looking for jobs in dubai since January too and have applied to quite a few now, It's only really been this week I've started to hear back! Got an interview on Friday in London and one next week in Birmingham so you might hear in the next couple of weeks or so don't give up!

English - what about you? which schools/companies have you applied to?

[Lewy1983]

I don't know whether you were asking me but I teach Art. Ive applied to Wellington school but didn't hear anything and I've applied for a couple in Qatar. Also sent my CV and covering letter to most schools in Dubai, and registered with trachanywhere.

I teach French. Have applied virtually every where too. Who is the London interview with? Just so I can tick off the list.

It's called school of research science it's a Muslim school rather than an international school like most others I've applied to. I've just read another post from a different thread that said theyd just sent their cv and letter of application to most reputable schools in Dubai regardless of whether they'd advertised and ended up with a decent job through that! So that might be worth a try? Think I'll try that if I'm not successful with the interviews I have!

I also emailed a few schools even before anyone advertised for posts. I got my job before Christmas in the end but was invited to interview by two other schools just after Christmas. If anyone wants any help with CV or letter I would be more than happy to help - just PM me

Could u help with interview questions? What was your interview like? I'm so nervous in interviews but haven't got a clue even what to prepare for this one!
