    Re: I can't find a teaching job!!!!!!!!!! Ideas
    Posted by barb on 9/10/08

    The best advice I ever received was to sign up to sub first. You
    will get to know folks and vacancies occur all of the time. If
    you are good at being a sub you will soon find a permanent
    position.. The other advice I can give you is visit the schools
    where you would like to be and present yourself to the principal.
