TEFL.com
TEFL.com is an online platform providing resources for teachers to find international teaching jobs, manage their resumes, and connect with recruiters globally.
I have submitted a job application. Will the employer acknowledge my application, and if so, where can I find their message?
We provide all recruiters with an automated acknowledgment system. Although we encourage employers to acknowledge applications, unfortunately, not all do. If the recruiter does acknowledge your application, you will receive an email which includes a link to your "My Job Applications" page. Within your applications page, simply click on the link in the "Acknowledgement" column to view your message.
Will my current employer be able to see if my resume is currently active and that I'm looking for a new job?
Only registered employers can access the resume database, and initially, they cannot access any contact information of the resume members. Information such as name, address, phone, email address, or anything that would identify the resume member cannot be accessed. If the employer wishes to access the contact information, an administrative fee (ResumeView) is payable, whereby we receive their credit card or bank information, which is recorded.
Does TEFL.com validate any of the recruiters advertising on the site?
No. TEFL.com makes no claims as to the validity or accuracy of employment information contained within an advertisement; we simply work as a conduit for this information. All job-seekers are advised to follow the guidelines we provide via our 'your safety', 'application advisory', and 'disclaimer' information which accompanies each job advertisement. You should also view our full Terms and Conditions.
I accidentally sent an incomplete application for a job vacancy. Can I re-submit the application?
As it is only possible to submit one application, please check your application carefully prior to submission.
I am trying to upload my resume to 'My Resume Attachments' page; however, it won't upload.
You can upload files of the following types: doc, docx, pdf, odt, rtf, txt. Please ensure that filenames do not contain any punctuation or spaces. The maximum file size is 10 MB.
Can I send a message to a recruiter to whom I have submitted an application?
If the advertiser is seeking a reply from the applicant, they will include an email address within your "My Job Applications" page.
I have noticed some employers listed in my "Resume Activity" page. What does this mean?
Your Resume Activity page shows all employers who have viewed (via resume search) either the summary of your resume (not contact information) or your full resume including contact information.
I am not looking for a job at present; how do I set my account to no mail?
You can set your account to no mail.
I am no longer teaching and wish to delete my TEFL.com account. How do I do this?
You can delete your account.
Although I'm subscribed to tefl.com emails, I haven't received any for more than a month. Is something wrong with my account?
Please check your email spam folder for missing emails. To ensure that you receive our mail, you may wish to add to to your email program address book.
