Dear Mike,

Dalian is really great. It's one of the more mellow places in China. It's got about the same range of restaurants and activities as Beijing but on a much smaller scale. It's all there.

It's large but overwhelming and IMHO the city fathers have done a good job with a semblance of beauty about the place.

That being said, in winter, it can be brutally cold and the temperature these days has not been particularly clement.

If you're a Canuck, you are probably used to those kind of temperatures, but I surely am not. Today it was - 8 C. or something like that.

Look here, please kind Mike, for about all the answers that you will need

Answer of the DayMORE >>

Q: Can I get a job if I'm a non-native speaker with a BA degree from England?

A: Yes, you can get legal ET job by the Chinese Labor law. Pro

A:Yes, you can get legal ET job by the Chinese Labor law. Problem is, most Chinese managers and recruiters don't know, they can obtain Working permit for a non-native English teacher with BA completed in a native English country. I'd suggest, you mention possibility of legal employment for non-native English teacher with degree completed in a native English country at the first interview. It's a tough time in China at your example, IMO. Most recruiters and hiring managers in China know only "ET must hold a native English passport ..", so your job application get dismissed right there. The other thing is, never stop sending your CV to the job offers doesn't matter if no replies. At my time in China (pre-2017), I'd send CVs to every offer posted daily.I've even disregarded advert's requirement 'native English passport holder', and ... I got a reply or two in a month time. Take the last paragraph as a rule! Good luck! -- icnif77
