Heard that next year might be the election, hence, year-end bonus might be unexpectedly generous. 1.1-1.5.

Polys are fairly autonomous and have some degree of free play in their policies, even those concerning recruitment.
The principal and higher management set the direction - some are very conservative concerning staffing, while others are more forward-looking and plan ahead for future expansion.
Some insist that new staff can only join at the lower ranks, never accepting a senior or experienced lecturer - that's why you see some poly advertising for 'Lecturer', while there are those advertising for 'Senior/Lecturer' - they really mean what they say!
Leave it for those interested to apply, get interviewed and find out!

Hi, I intend to quit my private sector job and apply for lectuter position in poly so that i have more time to spend with kids.
How is the working hours in poly? Eg. If my class finishes at 4pm, can I leave at 4pm?
Do i have to go back everyday during holiday?
What kinds of ECA i have to involve?
I have a local university honour degree. Have been working in finance industry for 12 years, holding a VP position now. What kind of salary I can get?
Appreciate replies from you guys. Thanks.

You cannot go home straight after your class ends. You have to stay until the official knock off time. The working life at poly is not that simple and free. Teaching is only 50% of the job scope.
There're many meetings and admin work to clear after the classes and we often have to bring our work home to do at night. Of course, it depends on one's time management skill. In addition to academic workload like teaching, supervising students' projects and setting test papers, you will be asked to organise events, do industry project, organise trips etc. There're problematic students and parents to handle too. Nowadays, people have less respect for the teachers.
One has to return to work everyday during the holiday unless one applies for annual leave.
Many colleagues said their workload at the poly is equivalent to their workload in private sector but poly pays them less. Poly definitely doesn't pay as well as MNCs in the private sector. Its benefits are job security and satisfaction if you love nurturing the youths (well behaved and nasty ones included).

I heard there are more people applying than the number of position available. Guess it will be in the range of 5k to 6k.

What is the official working hours? 9am to 5pm?
How many days of annual leave?
Sound like working hrs same as private sector, which means does not make sense for me to take a huge pay cut to switch to teaching. I am looking for shorter working hrs and i dont mind a lower pay. For my current job, i knock off at 630pm.
Actually I am a poly grad. My lecturers were very relax, they came at 10am if their first class started at 10am. And most of them left at 4pm.
