Tomorrow Advancing Life tops the list, followed by New Orential Education with the most K12 teacher posts


As of April 23, TAL's official website releases 80 school recruiting positions and nearly 720 social recruiting positions for 2021.  


These positions are in eight categories: product operations, technical development, education management, teaching operations, content editing, design and creativity, marketing&sales managers, and functional management.


Teaching and Learning Research positions accounted for nearly 40 of the highest number of positions recruited on campus.


Of the social recruiting jobs, nearly 250 were posted by the Learning and Training Division and only three by the Online School Division.


The latest positions in the campus and social recruitment are mostly for K12 teachers and teaching content development positions.


In addition, the latest openings at TAL include positions related to hardware managers.


Previously, Late Post reported that TAL had set up a dedicated hardware division and was working on a smart desk lamp.


New Oriental is also looking for a solution for its smart desk lamp project.


However, we didn’t find any hardware manager position yet in New Oriental Onlie’s website.


According to incomplete statistics from Interface Education, New Oriental 2021 recruited in nearly 300 positions in campus recruitment in Guangdong, Nanjing, Shenyang and Hefei, while nearly 300 positions were also being recruited in social recruitment.


These positions can be divided into nine categories: teachers, functional, teaching and research products/teaching and research, management trainees, IT technology, marketing, customer service, course consultants, and others.


GAOTU EDUCATION is lagging behind TAL and New Oriental in terms of the number of job openings.


According to GAOTU EDUCATION's website and recruitment official microblog, a total of about 400 positions are open in 2021, of which nearly 300 are for school recruitment and nearly 100 are for social recruitment.
