Be cautious of flying prior to having orders. People have been told in the past if they flew before they had orders, they would not be reimbursed.
Also, if you leave the USA before you receive your final offer, you could potentially lose your LQA eligibility.

Thanks all. I'll call and ask about those. It would be in addition to what I am teaching now, I think. It's in Italy but it's only a rumor this person is retiring, so I just wanted to be ready just in case.

Thank you, HelpOthers. Your explanation makes sense why I was on the Cert of Eligibles, referred to the Hiring Authority, scheduled for interview, but the phone interview was canceled by email notification hours before the scheduled time. DoDEA is excepted service, but I wonder if the federal hiring authorities are sometimes confused between the ex...See More

I believe if you have Vet preference and are at the top of the referral list based on HR's point system, they may need to interview you, but if you are determine to be less qualified than other candidates, they would need to complete a detailed packet to show how the chosen candidate(s) are more qualified than you are.

I'm very late in responding to this one, but for those considering bringing new vehicles, if you do not have the title (your lender does), the lender may refuse to allow you to remove the vehicle from the USA. Trying to repossess it would be nearly impossible for them.

While your car will be shipped free, it can take months to arrive. Purchasing a used vehicle at a non-military dealership allows you to get the required Snow Tires in Germany. The Dealership will even store the snow tires for you for free. In an accident, you will be found guilty and fined if you have the wrong season tires on your car regardless o...See More

Here is the information you will need if you do not come in on a rotator. https://www.maff.go.jp/e/policies/ap_health/animal/index.html#a_3

Again, I know this is a late response. If you think at any time you might be willing to go to Japan, I suggest starting the process now and continuing to comply with the regulations so that when the time comes your dog will have already met the quarantine requirements. This is especially true if you are single and must live off base/post. Those liv...See More

Thanks haha! Openings for this position are a long shot but that hasn't stopped me from shooting my shot! Hoping there is a shift any an opportunity appears. This is the second year I've had my application in and I've receive one referral to date. Fingers crossed.

And unfortunately in the overseas areas where EDIS offered social work support, they have stopped providing it to DoDEA schools. However, they may be offering it through the medical side, outside of school.
I joined and now I can't find it when searching

I noticed the same. I had to submit another request to join.

There were actually two different FB groups. One has remained active and the other seems to not be active.

Yes. But it's more likely to that an AP would be hired from outside than a principal (in my knowledge and experience, but anything is possible).

@TeacherToAdmin, moving from the classroom to ISS or admin position is considered a promotion and is one way that people are able to move to new locations without a transfer round. I believe those positions are usually applied for through USA Jobs rather than EAS, so that is one reason that movements occur.

Interesting (and sad to hear). Maybe because they were being denied a promotion or lateral move, rather than initial employment with the federal gov't? Or simply confirms that everyone has/has heard their own story and so much (way too much) comes down to some individual's interpretation of policies/procedures.

Worst case scenario would be arriving in a location and having the school try to meet your child's needs only to be told that they cannot meet the needs and your child will need to attend a non-DoDEA school that could be in a different country paid at DoDEA's expense. Placing my child in a residential school, because the school where I work cannot ...See More

Thank you, both of you. I know it is small, like 200 students. I am just having a hard time deciding to hold out for an admin job or take a teaching job. I wanted a teaching job seven years ago with the DOD and now I am getting many invitations to interview. Hence my question to you earlier about mobility once hired as a teacher. What a crazy hirin...See More

@KMC moving from a teaching position to an admin position is a promotion, so even though the transfer round is not occurring, you could potentially move to another location through a promotion. Therefore, I would accept a position in Ankara (if I had not dependents) in a heart-beat.
