Be careful!
I have heard all bad things about Top Flight and David Matthews for the past year.
Trouble with the contract, trouble with pay and unkept promises.
Apparently he is a big talker. Like most brokers.
As always read the contract before you go.

Agreed. He's makes a used car salesman look like the Pope :}
Avoid Dave Matthews like the plague.

I just felt the "love"of Top Flight. It cost me 700$. I talked to Chris of climbto350. He said he was going to block Top Flight from here on. I suggest you share you story with him. Also, I would like to know what you were told. I was interested in a job in Chendu. Promise of 11k US per month. Do you know anymore?

Actually, Dave and his sleazy add is on Climb to 350 today. If they are going to ban him, it won't be today. Caveat emptor!

There are several agents and brokers around the region, why not ask around and try.
Flying in Chengdu is a great pleasure!

Hi All
These guys are still advertising on climbto 350.
There have been a whole bunck of ads over the last month.
I tried calling their advertised number but it appears to be wrong or disconnected?
Does anyone have any more telephone contact info for them.
Who else out there recruits for china?
Has anyone got any more info??
Thanks,

Insert Name.. Uh, If Chendong Dave the scumbags published number "appears" to be inop or disconnected. Should'nt that tell you something?
Why on earth would you want to try? Try ANY other head hunter.

You don't look a Cobra in the eye and you don't do business with Dave Mathews.
END OF STORY!
Chengdu is a great place if you tolerate the variable interpretations of a Chinese contract...one side view of course.
Want to go to China? I have had good experiences with Dave Ross and Doug Mowdry. No plug here, they have been good to me.
Mathews got away with my money. Winkleseth didn't.
Expat 101...recruiters don't work for you. you don't pay them. We are just a commodity that fluctuates on demand and is always expendable.
