Hi guys
I'm a new instructor and I was wondering the best techniques for hunting down that job.
Blindly sending off emails seems to be a little cold and unrewarding but a good way to get your message across that you're looking for work. Searching the dive company websites gets a bit depressing after a while as the place you want never turns up or the employer asks for loads of experience and thirteen different languages.
The best way it seems to me is to locate a place you'd like to dive, ask around the shops in the area and hope something comes up. However, I think this can be a risky strategy as funds for most of us are limited and if you don't find a job relatively quickly, then a certain amount of stress on yourself and wallet my ensue.
Have I just found a reality check as an instructor? What do you guys think? Any comments would be appreciated.
Cheers
Ben
