Source4Teachers???

Does anyone else sub for Source4Teachers? Do you find it more difficult than usual to find sub jobs? They claim there are all these jobs... but I'm honestly seeing far less than when S4T wasn't supplying the subs for the district I work in.

it's everywhere The sub rolls are definitely bloated due to the job situation. Laid off people outside of teaching, laid off teachers, and new grads are subbing. Last year my district used me every single day. This year I'm 3-4 days a week. Believe me...it's all around and has nothing to do with your subbing agency. In some states/regions more subs aren't even bei...See More

subber123 But the problem is that the company "claims" that there are all these sub jobs and you can work 5 days a week. I sit in front of the computer are all and nothing goes by.

didn't like source4 There was a sub shortage until the layoffs happened. I'll be honest, I started the process with source4 and found them rather annoying from the beginning.

I started the process with them, and went to their beginning seminar. ...See MoreThere was a sub shortage until the layoffs happened.

I wanted to have a back up to my regular district and thought it would be nice to be in different districts once in a while. I started the process with them, and went to their beginning seminar. There was a certain bureaucratic issue I had to deal with (odd and nothing wrong on their part). However, they never returned calls or answered email and I just found them very frustrating to deal with. I also found their process annoying for someone who is a certified teacher. They didn't really work with many schools in my region as well...which they should have told me from the start. I'm much happier dealing with a district directly....perhaps find the nearest very large multi high school suburban district to you? I'm getting work again every day since the flu is going around...hopefully work will pick up for you too.
