My favorite parts:
They literally list out the JET pay scale, which is significantly higher than what they offer, and then immediately follow up with
Interac salaries are competitive within the ALT industry
Right. LMAO.
ALTs should be financially responsible people and continue to be budget-conscious during their time in Japan.
They note that JETs get up to 20 days of pto, and Interac only gets 10 – with 5 of those dictated by the company as company holidays – so in actuality, 5 days of pto. BUT they sugar coat it with:
Infact, Interac goes a bit above the standards and actually grants the holidays after 3 months (instead of half of year), and then each April for successive contracts.
Wow. Such an unbelievably generous company.
Is it your dream to immerse yourself in Japanese culture and customs? To experience the personal enrichment of teaching a language and inspiring the next generation? Are you passionate about building a career in education, or career in Japan more generally? If so, then Interac’s for you.
Yes, I am so convinced that Interac is the better choice after reading this article lmao.
