Where these listings come from

• Posted by the school. A school signs in, writes the role, and submits it. A person reads every one before it goes on the board.
• Sourced from a partner board. The role was already public elsewhere. We import it, rewrite it, and attribute it on the listing itself. The school did not ask us to and may not know we exist until they claim it.

You can tell them apart: a sourced listing carries a line at the bottom saying so.

Sourced listings are restructured so they can be compared. The original text of an ESL advert is usually a wall of prose with the things a candidate actually decides on — salary, whether housing is included, whether the visa is sponsored — buried in the middle or missing. We pull those into fields, and rewrite the description so every listing on the board reads consistently.

The rewrite is machine-assisted.A language model does the first pass on the description; the structured fields are normalised by code. That means a rewritten description is our summary of the school's advert, not the school's own words, and it can be wrong in the way any summary can.

What we never change:

• The school's name.
• Where the role is.
• The salary figures, the currency, or the period they are quoted for.
• Where applications go — the address or link on a listing is the one the school asked to be contacted on.

The upstream data carries far more than a job advert — including account records for the schools that posted on that board. None of it belongs here, so the import is a strict whitelist: a field that is not explicitly named in our importer does not arrive, and there is no column in our database that could hold it. Personal contact details of individual staff are not imported.

Every listing submitted by a school is read before publication. We are looking for the things that make a teaching board dangerous rather than merely untidy: a role that is not a real vacancy, an intermediary posing as the school, an application address unrelated to the employer, or a salary that is not a salary. We reject those with a reason, and the school can fix it and resubmit.

Sourced listings are not individually read before import — there are thousands and they rotate every few hours. They are removed on request, and expired ones drop off the board automatically.

• Paid placement is labelled. A featured role carries a ★ Featured stamp wherever it appears. That is the only thing money changes about where a listing sits.
• Search ranking is by relevance and recency. It is not for sale, and paying does not move a role up the results beyond the labelled featured slots.
• We do not remove a listing because a school asked us to remove a competitor's, and we do not write favourably about a school in return for anything.
• Guides and country articles are editorial. Nobody pays to appear in them.

Two routes, and the first is faster because it needs no reply from us.

• Claim it. If the listing tells candidates to apply to an address you can receive mail at, claim the listing and you can edit or withdraw it yourself. Being able to read that mailbox is the proof — it is a stronger signal than any form we could ask you to fill in.
• Email us at hello@asianjobs.creabeast.com with the listing URL. Removal requests from the employer named in a listing are honoured — we do not argue about whether a role should be advertised.

Corrections are made to the listing rather than noted separately; a listing is a live advert, not an article of record.

A sourced listing is only as current as the board it came from. If a role is filled and the original advert is not taken down, it can stay here until its expiry date passes. Expired listings are excluded from the board automatically, but “filled” and “expired” are not the same thing, and we cannot detect the first.

So: apply promptly, and treat a listing as an invitation to contact the school rather than a guarantee the role is open.
