IMPORTANT SPECIAL NOTES:
Whenever possible, Four Seasons tries to promote from
within. Therefore we will give strong preference to candidates for
regular teaching positions who have a relationship with the company already.
Several of these positions have developed because the client recognized
the exceptional ability of their regular teacher and requested that they
work increased hours or full time with them. We will, occasionally,
hire a "fresh" Corporate Liaison, that is, one who has not started
out as regular staff, but we do prefer to keep it within the family whenever
possible.
However, one reason we often do go outside our family
for this position is that many corporations do want staff with intermediate
to advanced Japanese ability. Many of our regular teachers do not
have strong Japanese ability since their focus has been teaching.
Therefore candidates with less English teaching experience/education and
more Japanese language/life experience may be better suited for this position.
In addition, we have sometimes found candidates with particularly interesting
histories to appear to be exceptional matches with some of our clients
and have therefore offered them for our client's consideration without
a specific opening available. Register now to be considered for
the next available position.
