if you give more details, such as an answer to the above, then you have earned a better answer.

to many of the recent posts do not appear to be genuine, as they are either 'post and run' or have obvious flaws in their 'story'
thanks

I'd say, yes, you have chances to get ET job with only 1-year of working experience and right age, i.e. not too young as older than 18 - 20 years old.

2-years of working experience was put in place to prevent too young teachers apply for a job in China.

Just send your CV to every ET job vacancy you see and then ... tell us all about.

Good lucky!

hello, i have a masters in english linguistics, a c2 language qualification, a 160 hour tefl certification from cambridge and 3 years of university teaching experience and i live in pakistan. For some reason, i can't seem to land an interview with schools. Is there something i am missing?

icnif77:

You are a non-native English sneaker, so you don't qualify for a legal English teaching job in China.

See any search engine with: "Requirements for an ET job in China" what will broaden yer horizons on the subject.

One's degrees and what not do not matter. Not even Shehbaz Sharif could land a legal ET job in China.

Only native English passport holders (UK, USA, Canada, Oz-land, New Zealand, S. Africa) qualify ...

How could I forget Ireland ...

Q: job oppurtunities for non-native ESL teachers

A: 1. Apply at FindJobz, top L corner of this screen! 2. Have a look

A:1. Apply at FindJobz, top L corner of this screen! 2. Have a look over the Internet with "Requirements for an English teaching job in China" in search for more details.You could also look at the guidance titled "How to use an Internet, search engines in particular ..." for more in-dept knowledge. 3. As you can see from no. 2,, main requirement for an ET job in China is holding of a native English passport (UK, Ireland, USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and S. Africa), no different than anywhere else in the world. 4. Non-English native passport holders qualify for an ET job in China only if they hold BA degree completed in the native English country.However, most recruiters and hiring managers in China aren't aware of that exemption, so if you hold a degree from one or two native English countries, I suggest you include that into Introduction letter. Good lucky! P.S.Application for the NASA's Moon-to-Mars Program at the Cape Canaveral is less stringent than applying for an ET job as a non-native Englisher ...That of course, is an opinion of a non-English native teacher with lengthy English teaching experience in several different countries. -- icnif77
