Q: Struggling to find jobs as a light skinned American with an STEM background.

Hi, what hs your guys experience been with getting jobs as I've contacted folks for potential jobs but haven't been getting luck. I have my local background check, MS degree, and TEFL. My introduction video has me well groomed and speaking normally however... I would say my background in studies is proving an issue and I do not like lying.

I ain't sure if this will help, but I used to say ...:

"Never stop sending your CVs, not even if you already have an interview invitation!"

 

MS degree is completed online ... That might be the reason 'cause I don't think employer in China can secure legal Working permit by presenting degree completed online.

 

TEFL Course completed online was/is acceptable, but I'm not sure about your MS ...

 

Have a look at the requirements for Z visa in China ... 

 

Good luck!
