Just curious, anyone know exactly when in March stateside hiring may begin? I'll be traveling out of the country for spring break, so want to try and plan on when I should look at email, if need be.
Thanks!

Good luck with your interview! Good to know, IsItFriday! I assumed as much, but thought that there would be a general start off point for hiring for August start dates. :) Have a good day!

Keep the phone number with you that is on your application. You may receive a call about an interview rather than an e-mail. However, keep an eye on those e-mails too.

Interesting times.

haha - when you put it in those terms. It does sound a lot easier. And if the typical time for a pull-out session is 45 minutes that wouldn't be too hard. All that would take is to prep 3 activities - 15 minutes each. Not too bad, plus the content material is super easy.

Hard to put a number on it. Basically, your schedule should be filled with pullout and/or push-in sessions, aside from your planning periods (either two shorter periods per day, 2/7 periods, or one longer period, 1/4 periods, every other day.

Months? A few to many? It's tough to try and give a better estimate since experiences vary wildly. I've known a few teachers get ISS jobs and leave mid-year but don't know the exact details of the timeline since many people play those kind of things close to the vest until they know it's really happening.

It will depend on whether or not a new background check is required. That seems to make the difference every time.

Hi. They are relatively difficult to get into. You would limited to only elementary schools and there is likely to be only one position per school (possibly more at larger schools but I haven't personally seen it).
But, there are generally some openings every year and they get filled every year (although current DoDEA teachers might also w...See More

Often, this is a part-time position or combined with another position.

@ashmo, could I get your contact info. I am taking a position in Qatar next school year while I wait for a DOD overseas position. I could use some guidance on the Move to Qatar.
HelpOthers
If you turn down a job offer in the states (DoDEA), your application will be frozen for the remainder of the hiring year and will not be placed on any overseas (DoDEA) positions either, so please keep that in mind. Stateside positions do not pay relocation expenses either.

I am a veteran and received no referrals last year. HR told me in so many words that Veteran Preference doesn't mean sht unless you actually make a referral list and being a Veteran in no way guarantees that you will make said referral list. I was also told in another so many words that a higher degree carries more weight in making a referral list ...See More

Yes, you must first qualify enough to make a referral list, then are referred based on the following preference list (when hiring from OUTSIDE DoDEA): Local Hires before CONUS and in the following order: Vet preference (highest to lowest), then military spouse, then family member (this would include DoD/CIV spouse and other military dependents), et...See More

@haha.. You are so right. Any thing is possible with the government. I will most likely contact HR in a few weeks to inquire about the process. I am very curious as it is totally different from non-DoDEA districts. It would be nice to know where you stand, ya know? I am not an excessed employee, so either way, I am in a good position. :-). Thanks f...See More

Yes, there is some hiring, but at this point there are still people who need to be placed; so, you may not see much in the way of referral lists yet.

It is generally a .5 for salary, benefits, etc. The exact hours, days, etc. would depend on the position, school, etc. For PCSD, I believe part time would be mornings or afternoons, 5 days a week, but could be wrong about that.
Part time could lead to full time but there is no guarantee. It could be a good move if you can afford to be on h...See More

Keep in mind that the government only pays 1/2 of the portion they usually pay for your benefits (if you work 1/2 time), so you end up pay almost double what you would ordinarily pay. This may be important if you need the benefits from your position rather than from that of a spouse for example.

@texasgirl Are applicants notified even if they don't make the list? For example outside of DoDEA, when I completed my admin degree program, I took the certification test and the admin cert was added to my Texas license. I was just wondering if DoDEA would add the cert even if a position is not available at this time, but one meets all of the crite...See More

In general, DoDEA is hit or miss with notifying unsuccessful candidates for any position.
Also, generally speaking, DoDEA only issues certifications to current employees. Candidates/applicants are only deemed qualified, pending actual employment with DoDEA.
