Only Native English speakers (UK, USA, Canada, Oz, NZ and SA passport holders) qualify for legal English teaching job in China.

 

Chinese employers won't reply, if they cannot place you at the advertised job for this or that reason.

 

Never stop sending your CV to the advertised jobs ...

 

Good luck!

Looking for the job is very personal thingy and it mostly depends on applicant ... your nationality and qualifications, appearance and more, so helpful advice is very difficult to give.

 

I was working as non-Native English teacher long years in China and I just wrote what did I do, i.e. apply everywhere .. and never stop sending your CV.

 

As I said, Chinese don't reply same as western employers with:

"Thank you for ... Position has been filled."

 

Chinese employers won't reply unless they really want you. It must be even worst now with replies in the middle of pandemic ...

Have a look at these English Teaching Jobs websites:

Tony Chung: Hong Kong activist detained near US embassy charged

October 29, 2020

 

 

Tony Chung, Hong Kong pro-democracy student activistTony Chung, Hong Kong pro-democracy student activist

Hong Kong teen activist Tony Chung has been charged under a new national security law, just days after he was detained outside the US consulate.

Mr Chung, 19, had reportedly planned to enter the consulate and claim asylum.

He faces possible life imprisonment if found guilty of secession, conspiracy to publish seditious content, and money laundering.

Mr Chung, the second person to be charged under the law, was denied bail by the court.

 

The controversial law was imposed by China on Hong Kong in June, making it easier to punish protesters and reducing the city's autonomy.

The law is wide-ranging and gives Beijing extensive powers which it never had before to shape life in the territory.

Critics say the law erodes the city's judicial independence and rights like freedom of speech, and that it has created a sense of fear and uncertainty in Hong Kong.

The United States, which under the Trump administration has taken a hard line against China, criticised the arrest.

"The use of the National Security Unit of the Hong Kong Police Force for the detention of a minor in a coffee shop is reprehensible," said a spokesperson for the state department.

Joshua Rosenzweig, the head of Amnesty International's China Team, said Chinese authorities had carried out a "politically motivated arrest", part of an "intensifying attack on human rights in Hong Kong".

What do we know about Chung's detention?

According to the South China Morning Post, Mr Chung was detained on Tuesday morning at a coffee shop opposite the US consulate.

UK-based activist group Friends of Hong Kong said he had planned to enter and claim asylum. Instead, footage taken from near the consulate showed him being carried away by plain-clothes police.

Mr Chung, a former member of pro-independence group Studentlocalism, had previously said that life under the new law had become more restrictive for him and other activists.

He told BBC Chinese in a recent interview that he felt he could not talk or act freely, and had to "worry about the red lines all the time".

But he also said activists had not given up fighting and that "at the right moment, we will come out to protest again".

"Yes we lose at this moment. But the road to democracy is always long."

He will remain in custody until his next court appearance on 7 January next year.

What is Hong Kong's new security law?

Hong Kong's national security law was imposed by Beijing in June after months of huge pro-democracy protests last year against an extradition bill.

The new law makes secession, subversion of the central government, terrorism or collusion with foreign forces punishable by up to life in prison.

In July, several were arrested under the new powers, including a man carrying a "Hong Kong Independence" flag.

Critics say it effectively puts an end to the freedoms guaranteed by Beijing for 50 years after British rule ended in Hong Kong in 1997, but China says it will return stability to the city.

After the passing of the security law, the UK's Prime Minister Boris Johnson said he would offer up to three million Hong Kong residents a chance to settle in the UK and ultimately apply for citizenship.

China criticised the suggestion, saying it would take countermeasures against the UK should it grant residency to Hong Kong residents.

 

It's only when you sit back and ask yourself, "What has Tony Chung actually done?" that you realise just how draconian Hong Kong's state security law is.

Among the accusations against Mr Chung: that he posted on social media advocating independence for Hong Kong.

According to Joshua Rosenzweig, the head of Amnesty International's China Team, "a peaceful student activist has been charged and detained solely because the authorities disagree with his views".

 

 

Consider it another way. Mr Chung is 19 years old. What views were you expressing when you were 19? What opinions were others expressing? Should you have been threatened with life imprisonment for them?

In just a matter of months, the pro-Beijing camp in Hong Kong has made use of the new national security law to erode the harbour city's once vaunted freedom of speech. It is nothing short of a disaster for the vast majority of residents who voted for the pro-democracy block in the most recent local elections.

As a document, the proposed law was frightening, but now people are seeing the reality: state security agents grabbing teenage activists from cafes and taking them away perhaps for the rest of their lives. On the ground in Hong Kong, the shocking reality of the new legal regime is becoming clear.

most of the jobs posted on this site are probably fake.
 

and you won't get a response if an employer is not interested.

I hope your application had better English than your question above, if not then I will admit I am not surprised at the lack of response.

"I have been applying for numerous jobs on this platform but not even a single feedback?? Are this positions advertised here even real?? Why is there no single progress or respond regardless the efforts invested?? Is this a waste of my time mybe or perhaps I’m just an inch away¿

do keep trying - eventually you will find a place - probably in a 3rd/4th tier city

Good to see you planning for the summer of 2021. Fun fact: if you're from a country where the coof if running wild you have Buckley's chance of actually starting a job before 2022.

Quinn68:

I hope that's not going to be the case. I would think if an American gets one of the several highly effective vaccine's which will be available to the general populace come March and April, he should be given the green light to start working in China in summer 2021. There is no logical, scientific reason why he should be denied entrance as he poses zero threat. This is what I'm banking on anyway.

Beam me up Scotty!

 

I'm sorry Captain, I can't.

 

Dammit Scotty, Beam me up now,, Commander Spock and I are being attacked by a gang of hot-looking teen girls who look like extras from Barberella! Beam us up now! 

 

Sorry sir- do u have a Govt validated COVID-19 certificate dated within the last 6 hours?

 

A what??

 

Scotty, Commander Spock here, your inquiry lacks logic, therefore I find it to be illogical. I therefore must assume the you are suffering from Covid-19 and I must use my logic to overide your request. Do u understand my Logic Mr Mechanic?

 

Sorry Sir, but the only hot-looking woman on the bridge, the black lady says the Prime Directive states u must possess current Covid certificate.  Therefore we must leave u down there to be raped to death by the horde of teenage girls in Spandex.

 

Very well Scotty, your logic is indubitably logical.

 

Thanks Commander, by the way can u ask the Captain where he hides the spare set of keys?

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change student visa to labourer one is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
