In response to VipKids in China (Shelly)

Shelly,

I agree with you that the application/interview/demo class procedure was tedious to put it lightly. From what I've been told, the company is aware of the problems and is implementing changes. I went through TWO interviews/demo classes but was eventually hired as a teacher. Since I began working for VIPKID, I've had no problems. I was paid for my practicum classes/training, I was paid for buying my "uniform" (orange polo shirts), I was paid for the equipment I would need to buy for teaching online (not including my webcam, PC, microphone, headphones.) Also, I'm paid on time each month, directly into my bank account without any arguments or "accounting errors".

In short, I feel that you are spot on saying that the application process for becoming a teacher is very difficult. What I can't agree with is calling the company a "scam". That implies that they are somehow taking advantage of you in some way. Other than the time you sunk into the application process, what did you lose? By that rationale, any company you interview with that doesn't hire you is a "scam". No?

Matt
