THAILAND

Fair Organizers: Nick Kendell, Harry Deelman

A major recruiting opportunity for internationally experienced teachers looking to work in exceptional schools.

Search Associates invites you to the prestigious Bangkok 2025 Fair, your one-stop shop for connecting with a diverse range of international schools!

 

 

Why Attend?

If you’d like to meet multiple schools and recruiters in one place at the one time and possibly walk away with a job offer in hand, we’d love you to join us. Face-to-face interviews, networking, and meeting people socially are great opportunities to make connections. Learn first-hand about school cultures and teaching philosophies, to find the perfect match for your career goals.

 

  • Meet hundreds of recruiters: Network with representatives from around 120 schools (with many attending from Asia) who are seeking exceptional teachers from various nationalities and specializations. The list of schools attending has grown every week.
  • Maximize your job prospects: This renowned fair attracts highly qualified candidates, so stand out with the guidance of your Search Associates advisor.
  • Land your dream job: With a 40-50% acceptance rate, this fair boasts a proven track record of successful placements.

What to Expect:

Check out the fair schedule to find details - pre-fair preparation and mandatory days to attend. Be on time to the sign ups as that's when the majority of interview times will be arranged.

  • Effortless connections: Schedule face-to-face interviews and build valuable connections with schools from all corners of the globe.
  • Competitive edge: Receive expert advice from your Search Associates advisor to ensure you're a strong contender for the positions available.

Who Should Attend?

  • Seasoned educators: Experienced international teachers seeking a dynamic career move.
  • Strong teaching couples and singles: The fair welcomes applications from both individual and partnered educators.
  • Subject specialists: Teachers across all disciplines are encouraged to apply.

This fair is quite competitive. Recruiters know that they have other fairs to attend, so they may be selective.  We suggest asking your sponsoring associate to determine if this fair is a good match for you or if another fair would be a better "fit".

 

Candidates will be invited to attend the Bangkok Fair if they are considered to match the needs of the recruiters who will be at the fair and stand a real chance of receiving offers.

 

Some schools will be looking to employ candidates who have IB experience. Check the list of registered schools and do your homework beforehand. You may stand out more at a smaller fair, (as these fairs usually attract many local teachers who do not have international experience).

 

How to Apply:

CANDIDATES

  • Candidates who are new to Search and wish to attend the Bangkok Fair, look first at the region in which you live and register with the associate responsible for the region. If you are international (living outside of the US, UK, Canada, Australia/New Zealand), you may register with either Nick Kendell or Harry Deelman.
  • Contact your Search Associates sponsor: Discuss your career aspirations and determine if the Bangkok Fair aligns with your goals.
  • Request your invitation: Registered candidates can request an invitation through their Search Associates dashboard after August 16th, 2024.

Fair Location: MARRIOTT MARQUIS QUEENS PARK 

(not the similarly named Bangkok Marriott Hotel Sukhumvit!)

Address: 199 Sukhumvit Soi 22,

Klongton, Klongtoey, Bangkok 10110

Thailand T: +662 059 5555 ext.5124 M: +66 87 506 7931

How to get to the hotel

Suvarnabhumi (Sah-var-nah-boom) International Airport handles international flights. 

(IF ARRIVING FROM WITHIN THAILAND, YOUR FLIGHT MAY USE DON MUANG AIRPORT). 

 

Change money at the airport bank stalls; be sure to get a few Baht 20 and Baht 50 bills. 

METERED TAXI

The public taxi stand is located on Level 1 (ground level) near entrances 3, 4, 7 and 8. There is a taxi counter with personnel to ensure the driver understands your destination. Have the hotel and its address written on a piece of paper for ease of understanding. It is best to get a metered taxi to your hotel. You will be asked to pay the toll charges on top of the taxi fare, as well as a 50 baht fee to the driver (only applicable to taxis from the airports). Tipping is not expected, but appreciated. 

If you only have THB1000 notes, it is suggested that you use one to pay the toll.  That way, you will get change in smaller notes.

Estimated taxi fare: THB600 (one way)

Tell the taxi:  Marriott Marquis hotel, Sukhumvit Soi 22.

AIRPORT BUS

05:00 to midnight. https://www.bangkokairportonline.com/public-transport-services-at-suvarnabhumi-airport/

 AIRPORT TRANSFER

The Marriott Hotel is located 40 kilometers from the Suvarnabhumi Airport.

Alternate transportation: Bangkok Marriott Marquis Limo Service; fee: US$95 (one way); reservation required

CITY TRANSPORTATION

Bangkok traffic can be challenging. Be sure to add extra time if you are scheduled to travel between 07:00 - 09:00 and from 16:00 onwards. Friday and Saturday nights are particularly busy.

METERED TAXIS

Metered taxi is an easy way to get around Bangkok, though traffic jams are legendary. The hotel doormen will assist making sure the driver understands your destination and uses his meter.

RAPID TRANSIT

SkyTrain, (BTS) is half of Bangkok's rapid transit system. The nearest SkyTrain stop is at Phrom Phong BTS Station (although the Asok BTS station is not that much further in the other direction if walking along the street - Soi 22 is about half way between the 2 stations).

You can buy single trip tickets for the BTS using the machines at the station (having a supply of coins is recommended for this).  Alternately, you could purchase a Rabbit Card (for 100 baht) and then put some ‘credit’ on it, and use the turnstiles at any of the stations (tap on - tap off). This is often quicker as the queues at the ticket machines can be long at times.

There is also a subway (MRT). Get a BTS/MRT map from the hotel concierge. The nearest MRT stop is at Sukhumvit Station - see below (right next to the Asok BTS station). 

Location

The close proximity to BTS Sky train Station Phrom Phong, as well as the EM District lifestyle malls, enable easy access to some of the city’s most talked about hotspots. Only 400 meters or approximate 5 minutes walk from BTS to hotel via the Park. Please note that the gate is now open every day from 06:00 - 20:00.

SUKHUMVIT

The longest road in Thailand, both it and its many adjoining 'sois' (sub-streets) are poor on traditional tourist attractions but rich in of-the-minute shopping, eating and nightlife. The many fashionable restaurants, bars, air-conditioned malls, luxury hotels and hip clubs give the area a distinctly modern, cosmopolitan flavour. And little, stress-busting pockets of calm can be found in the sweet cafes, atmospheric restaurants and lush day spas that hide down many of its sois. Making exploring its staggering length incredibly easy is the Skytrain (BTS) that runs through most of its downtown stretch.
