I was hired online by both the principal and foreign principal. However, once I arrived, it was evident they had overhired foreign teachers and didn’t have enough classes. As a result, teachers were doubled up in classes. After the first semester, I was let go, with the explanation that they overhired and had financial issues.
On the positive side, HD Qingdao did pay my salary on time and honored my final pay.
