Hello,
I'm currently doing my PGCE, I don't have long left till I complete my teacher training course. I really want to teach abroad, specifically in the UAE. I have applied for a number of posts through teachaway. I haven't received replies, it just says 'submitted'. How long does it usually take for a response?
thank you,
farzana.
Hi Farzana,
Thanks for your note.
How long it takes to hear back really depends on whether you've applied for a position that is being handled by the school or by Teach Away's recruitment team. It also depends on the hiring timeline. If your application status is "submitted", this likely means it is being reviewed and that you should hear back soon. In the event you do not qualify for the position or that the hiring school decides not to hire for the position at the current time, you may notice the status change to closed. In this case, you will not receive an email or call from our team.
How long ago did you apply for these positions?
Further, I recommend completing your teacher training and adding this to your profile when you're ready to apply for more roles, as this could go a long way in making you a more desirable candidate for hiring schools.
I hope this helps! Let me know if I can provide further info.
Brett
