ESLJobs.com

"This is a free comprehensive online guide written by career educators and experienced foreign experts in China for prospective and current foreign teachers that contains volumes of well-documented information about living and teaching English in China. It covers more than 50 topics and addresses what every foreign teacher should know before accepting a job offer. If you are thinking about living and teaching English in China, then you owe it to yourself to read this guide." This guide is enormous and really covers every topic you might possibly think of in terms of relocating to China for the purpose of teaching English as a second language. They suggest you start with the Prospective Foreign English Teacher Self-Assessment Tool to see if you are pursuing a realistic goal. Then, to get an oversight of the entire guide, check the Comprehensive Summary to quickly cover the most important points discussed here. Need something even shorter because you are trying to determine if a current job offer is good? Review their mini-checklist with links to relevant sections of the guide. Marvelous discussion and guide not just to working in China but also the many issues an ESL educator working in a foreign country needs to consider.

Language Jobs

...as you all know, I tend to stay away from sites operated by individuals who do not appear to have any real background in the employment / career industry. I am making an exception here, because this individual has set up a site with links to search of specific websites for jobs requiring skills in specific languages. No registration needed, and you only use this site to get to those. You can see the sites to be searched, and the search string used, and it is a pretty easy way to do a quick check to see who needs your language expertise.

The Russian Opportunities Blog

..."posting ads for jobs, internship and volunteer opportunities, fellowship opportunities, and other tidbits for people who are seeking to work in the area. There will be a mix of jobs based in the USA and abroad. And some may require additional functional expertise: such as health, finance, humanitarian experience, etc." That is on top of your language proficiency. This blog is operated by an individual who has been receiving these sorts of announcements for years and decided to create a place for them to be shared and easily accessed by all. He generally updates on Sundays, with possible extra updates for urgent postings. From the front page you can access all the listings in reverse date of posting, but check the tags on the right side to quickly access posts in specific groups (NGO - name, GOV - name, University, Russia - city, USA - city). All posts link back to the organization who posted them.

TeslJobs.com

...not a recruiter but a location for the posting of jobs for Teachers of English as a Second Language plus resumes, resources, and discussion forums. While the contact info on this free site is limited to an email address, the domain registration info shows the name and address of the operator (Nova Scotia, Canada). However, you do not need to register even if you want to post a resume/CV (these will be public), and he is not the go-between for the jobs posted here, so I am not too concerned about the lack of information. I do appreciate his warning to not send credit card and bank info to employers and the many scam warnings posted on the site. Be sure to report any scams or concerns to the site operator.

Ministry & Religion

ChurchStaffing.com

...nice site advertising various positions in churches across the US and Canada. I like that they add size of church, and worship style to the job search criteria, but you can also opt to search by the many categories on the front page (scroll down to see the full list on the left). Recent ads as well as recent resumes are featured on the front page, so be prepared for a very public presence if you post your resume here.
