What teachers are saying about us

Staffroom has succeeded in involving me in a novel career development experience I have never lived before and succeeded in triggering my ambitions once again. They have also taught me how to compete with myself rather than focusing on the achievements of others and focusing on improving my own life and career. Honestly, I haven't experienced any challenges till now concerning the training material. Everything is well-prepared and planned. The only challenge I have encountered is the job market crowdedness. Generally, this training unleashed my skills and potential and led me to discover new hidden strengths inside me that arise while working. Staffroom also has a very energetic team always keen on innovating to turn challenges into real opportunities, so I recommend Staffroom to anyone who wants to grow internationally.

If any of my friends and colleagues in the international education world are struggling to get interviews or even responses from the schools they applied to, contact Staffroom. Staffroom has a wealth of knowledge and has helped me navigate through the new norms and ways of international school recruitment. They helped me whip my resume and cover letter into shape and I immediately had responses from several schools.

I want to let you know that I received a contract for my dream job and accepted a leadership position as Director of Athletics and Activities within an international school in Bangkok. After reviewing the training and utilising the strategies obtained from Staffroom, I was able to put forth the best professional and personal version of myself during the interview process. Thank you!

Thank you for helping me to revamp my CV completely and pushing me out of my comfort zone to try something different. I’ll never forget your message about my profile pic on LinkedIn - I was about to change it as I worried it wasn’t right and then your message gave me the confidence to leave it up as it showed me for who I am. The elevator pitch on my CV - I never thought I would do that. Having a CV that outlines results not just the day-to-day. What you are doing is amazing. Thank you! I’ll always recommend Staffroom to all who are looking for work and those who want to find staff!

I was waiting until I started my new job to post about it and write to you. I did your online course last year and found it so helpful. I fixed up my CV, wrote a new ATS CV using your template and did a lot of work to fix up my LinkedIn profile. I had 2 great interviews here in Hong Kong where I used the tips from the online course. So tomorrow I start at ****** here in Hong Kong which is an amazing international school that is very exciting and pays 40% more than my last school! Thank you again!

I was recently needing support with writing an effective cover letter and impactful CV. Having been off the market for a long time my skills were outdated and I needed direction. I chose to work with Staffroom because I found them responsive, knowledgeable and friendly. They seemed to be helping others and having great results so I thought I would give them a try too. They helped me by coaching and empowering me to be part of the process of improving my writing skills in line with what today's market are looking for. I would recommend them because they not only made the whole process easy but they helped me to have more confidence in my own abilities and achievements. I now have some new skills which I can use to promote myself on the job market in the future.
