International School Testimonial: Salesian International School

About Salesian International School

At Salesian International School, the mission is clear: to foster global citizens who are prepared to thrive in the 21st century. Inspired by Don Bosco’s vision of “Be good citizens,” Salesian has embraced a modern approach to education—one that emphasizes critical thinking, problem-solving, and global engagement.

With sister schools in 97 countries, Salesian offers students a unique international perspective, combining a rigorous academic curriculum with real-world learning experiences. This dedication to excellence and innovation extends to faculty recruitment, ensuring students learn from highly qualified, passionate educators.

To meet this goal, Salesian partnered with Schrole, now part of Tes, to enhance its hiring process. We recently spoke with Caleb Rinard, Assistant Director of the International Course, about how we have helped the school attract and retain top teaching talent.

The challenge

For Salesian, hiring high-quality teachers was a top priority. The school needed a reliable recruitment solution that could provide access to top-tier international candidates while streamlining the process.

“We were looking for a way to hire many highly qualified teachers,” says Caleb.

Choosing Schrole, now part of Tes

Salesian ultimately chose Schrole, now part of Tes, for its strong reputation and extensive network of active users. With our comprehensive recruitment tools, like Connect, now part of Staff Management, the school gained access to a global talent pool, making it easier to find educators who aligned with its vision and values.

“We were convinced by Schrole’s reputation and the number of active users.”

This number is now even greater, thanks to the tens of thousands of additional teaching candidates on Tes’ platform that are now accessible though our combined job board.

Achieving results

Since adopting Schrole, now part of Tes, Salesian has successfully filled all of its teaching positions, with most hires coming directly through our platform. The Applicant Tracking System (ATS) has been instrumental in helping the leadership team streamline hiring, ensuring an efficient and organised recruitment process.

“This year, we have hired for all positions, most of which through Schrole. The ATS definitely helped to streamline the process.”

Beyond efficiency, Schrole’s mandatory reference system has been a game-changer, providing valuable insights into candidates and ensuring the highest quality hires.

“In my opinion, the best feature of the platform is the mandatory references.”

Exceeding expectations

One of the standout benefits of working with Schrole, now part of Tes, has been the unlimited job postings, allowing Salesian to continually recruit and find the right educators without restrictions.

“The unlimited postings have exceeded our expectations.”

A recommendation for other schools

For schools looking to enhance their recruitment strategy, Caleb offers a key piece of advice: have a strong hiring plan and stick to it. With our powerful tools, international schools can confidently build a faculty that aligns with their mission.

With an 8/10 recommendation rating, Salesian International School’s experience underscores the effectiveness of our recruitment solutions in attracting top-tier educators.
