If my application is not successful will I be informed? Due to the volume of applications we receive it is not possible to respond to all applicants individually. Only selected applicants will be contacted. However if you attend an interview then you will be informed whether you have been successful or unsuccessful, and if unsuccessful you will have the opportunity to receive feedback on your interview. If I am offered a position, what happens next? Upon final selection the offer is made directly by the school administrative staff who will liaise consistently from the point of visa processing, flights and accommodation arrangement (for overseas candidates only) through to the induction week. You will be sent the offer and a contract by the school and will then have a point of contact based in the school where you are going to work. This is usually the Principal's Executive Secretary, HR Officer or Staff Relations Officer or Manager School Operations. They will be your main point of contact until your arrival and start at the school. You will receive information on document attestation and the relocation process and will be asked to submit relevant documents. It is very important at this stage that you begin the document attestation process immediately and submit them promptly to avoid delays in Ministry approval and visa process. This could take approximately 4 ? 6 weeks from the time of submission of all relevant documents to the Ministry of External Affairs. The Employment Visa will be processed by the school. New teachers typically arrive around 7-10 days before term starts, in order to settle in to the accommodation and to attend the Induction Week.
