I believe that form is for employment verification to figure out where you would fall on the pay scale when/if you get hired. I don't believe it would need to be submitted now. That will definitely be submitted once you get a job offer.
haha
Good catch. I totally missed the subject (and the point of what was being asked apparently). :S
Yep. Usually those are submitted after an offer, although some people recently have said that they uploaded to EAS. We mailed ours in as part of the onboarding paperwork, way back when.

Basically agree. If you already have a "good" job then you don't risk much by taking the interview. At worst, you don't like what you hear, turn it down and are blocked from applying for the upcoming recruitment cycle (maybe).

Based on Dodea's recent track record with teachers who are currently overseas, you will most likely not qualify for housing benefits or return travel. You would have to return to US soil for 12 months before applying/interviewing if you would like to receive LQA, etc.

No. There's very little difference.
There are no Army schools. The schools are DoDEA schools on Army bases, and DoDEA schools on Air Force bases.
But neither the Army or the Air Force has much influence on the schools, beyond demographics, and local issues.

My experience suggests that as a whole, DoDEA is more like the Army in its management style. Stiff, micromanagey, more worried about titles and protocol, and how we've always done it. Just my two cents...
I would like to apply for the 2022-2023 school year but it only gives me the option to apply for 2019-2020, 2020-2021, and 2021-2022. When do they allow you to submit an application for the upcoming school year? Should I submit as 2021-2022 with my available start date or do I wait for the system to select the 2022-2023 school year?

I believe that in March, the option to apply for 2022/2023 will open up as that is when all applicants are asked to renew their application for the year.
haha
In general, it seems better to get your application submitted and your qualifications (hopefully) determined as soon as possible. Then you are ready to review and finalize for the upcoming year.

I received an interview request for Naples. Can anyone tell me about the area or if it is a good post to have? How is housing and crime? Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Icanread
For what it's worth, I was just talking to a coworker today who is a young, single woman and was strongly advised by multiple people to not accept an offer that she received for Naples, due to crime there.
I don't have any personal experience with Italy and only know what I've read online.

My Diplomatic (maroon) Passport application in WASHDC today. Any group information on how the transfer works from US Dept of Agriculture US Forest Service Teacher to DoDEA Teacher Japan?. US OPM says the process is seamless and I will not lose any duty days between the two positions.
IsItFriday?
I think OPM exaggerates.
If you're working for the USDA in Washington DC until 4,00pm on Tuesday, and then you start working for the DEA in Baltimore at 8.00am on Wednesday, then yes, the OPM is correct, and you will not lose any duty days.
But the real world doesn't work like that.

I don't know if it's true, but from what I've been told, there are just three "hardship" schools that are considered for transfer. Ankara, Bahrain, and one more that I'm forgetting (I think a school in Italy). The rotation occurs through these school, and as such, my current school (Ankara EHS) saw 5 or 6 teachers transfer for the start of the curr...See More

Yes, rumors have circulated about the under-the-table transfer round.
The old established transfer program was clear, open and transparent.
It wasn't perfect, but it had agreed-upon rules that were negotiated with the union, and the teachers knew the rules of the game, and teachers could attempt to plan their career based on thos...See More

The 2.7% raise does not apply to all Federal employees., and definitely does not apply to DoDEA teachers.
You may confirm this with your supervisor.

@haha, I quite enjoy Ankara. There's not much going on, if I'm being honest, but it still has good restaurants and fun places to hang out. It's close to just about everything, so the strategic location for traveling is ideal. Cheap flights to the UK/Europe, and even cheaper throughout Turkey. It's about a 3 hour drive to Cappadocia, around 3 hours ...See More
