Re: Finding a good teaching job in China = Exhausting

The minimum age required for a genuine non guanxied visa is 25 thus you are too young. It may seem a stupid comment but it is very real for Chinese culture, if you are not white you will find it that much harder.
It also requires at least two years work experience AFTER graduation, work before graduation does not count.

Not sure about that, a friend of mine who is only 23 has got a job at a project 211 and 985 university! Trust me, they do not need to fiddle things nor take teachers that do not fit the legal requirements. I also know a lot of people who have come here before the age of 25, some even straight after graduation.
