Fake recruiter with no connections to schools I’ve been solicited numerous times by this fake recruiter. When I posted my resume on Dave’s ESL, he sent me a message claiming he could connect me with schools. And he demands $150 “as collateral.” Collateral for what? It makes no sense. A few years ago he said it was “because of Covid.” Dave's ESL has a banner warning you against these scams. It says, “Avoid scams by NEVER paying fees for a teaching position and stay far away if payment is requested (especially Western Union).” A real recruiter receives commissions from schools, not payments from teachers. So I wrote to “Golden Staffing” and asked him to name a specific school he recruits for. He doesn’t have an answer, nor does his website. Save your money and find a real recruiter who can directly schedule an interview for you with a school.

Went out of their way to assist me, thank you !!! I reached out to Golden Staffing and I immediately got a email from Angela and thereafter got a call from Gabriel assisting me in how to go about applying for online teaching. He was so extremely helpful and went out of his way to assist me in which schools I should apply for and said that when I do decide to teach abroad and not remotely I should give him a call. I am so excited now to keep job searching after that call and feel totally positive and excited to start teaching!! Thank you Gabriel and Angela!!!

THANK YOU!!! I would like to thank Gabriel for his prompt response to my message and email. His sincere interest and thorough answers to my questions gave me the thrust I needed to continue on my search for a job online. I just started the first steps with confidence and hope to continue to do so until the end. Keep up the good work!

Professional and always available Dealing with Golden Staffing for my first placement in China has been nothing short of wonderful. I have heard so many scary stories of how teachers find themselves in a less than perfect situation and loosing so much. Golden Staffing are professional, fast and efficient. Any queries are dealt with expediently. I recommend this company as often as I can, as honest and efficient recruiters are hard to come by, especially for China! Thank you to all those who assisted.
