How do I find a job as a new PADI Instructor?

[HantsDiver]

I woudn't

Hey, maybe an IDC student asked them this exact question... and after an obligatory all-hands brainstorming and googling session they concluded they have no idea.

If a CD has no idea how to find work as an instructor they have no right conducting IDC's. It's like an OWSI not knowing how to put their equipment together.

Great idea! Perhaps the next thread from IDCBali will be called "How do I assemble a SCUBA kit? Any suggestions?"

Froom the IDCBali Website:
"Job placement services – Blue Season Bali has a vast network of industry members looking for top quality PADI professionals."

You would be more credible in stating first "this is what we teach our students" and asking how it may be improved upon. Though to me, finding a job as an instructor is just like finding a job in any field. There's some legwork and networking involved. I would never expect a job to fall on my lap. I have to go get it.

yes, you are wrong.
This board is for discussion, yet you just copy and paste texts from your diveshop's website.
Some of that information is even.......not correct. Instead of participating in the discussion, you just ignore everybody and start a new thread. Ergo: advertisement.

Shenanigans.

Disingenuous and insulting shenanigans.

You make yourself, and your IDC program, look awful.

Please don't treat people like they're stupid.

You need to stop holding back and let people know how you really feel. He will never learn unless you tell him straight.

This thread has confirmed that, in the unlikely event of me wanting to turn pro, I will never, ever consider IDCBali as an option.
