scotia personnel ltd, legit or not?

Hi,

I sent my cover letter and resume to this company last night, and was contacted by a company rep this morning at 8 a.m.

I can't really find any concrete information about this company online. They asked for a CA $ 590 processing fee when a job is guaranteed, (apparently they used to ask for more, I found a forum posting from 4 years ago that said they used to ask for $ 1500 for processing fee)On the other hand, I did found a few blog posts about people who went through them and they seemed to be satisfied

Who is a Native Speaker of English by definition?

Hi everyone on the forum!
My worry of late has been around the question of who a native speaker of English is.I want to strongly disagree with those who claim that English can only be taught effectively by citizens from Canada,UK,NZ,US,AUS,SA and Ireland.

Hi guys,

I am wondering if anyone can help. I have became involved with a company http://www.experienceteachingabroad.com/

I am not entirely sure as to what "due diligence" i can exercise to ensure that the company is legit. Has anyone had any experience using them, or do you know of the best methods to investigate them?

South Korea Apostille and Background Check

If you ever need a background check and an apostille go here:

http://www.apostillepros.com

I went to UC Berkeley and I'm planning to teach in South Korea for a year because the economy in the U.S. is really bad. Anyway, they were very helpful in helping getting me get my background check and apostille.

Off to Korea for me. Hopefully, the Korean BBQ is good over there as it's good in San Francisco.

upon a site that reviews hagwons in Korea:  http://www.hagwon.reliableteacher.com/. They don't have lot of reviews up yet, but the site has a lot of potential. You could submit your own hagwon reviews too.
