Nope. It's your responsibility. However, Guam and PR may offer some relocation help, depending on where you live.
HelpOthers
@BlueSky. The relocation benefits are only for leaving the Continental USA. The housing benefits are only if you are recruited from the USA to live in a foreign country.

Good point @haha.

You can apply through EAS to foreign countries if stationed at Guam, just like if stationed in Puerto Rico or locations within the USA. You can also apply to locations within the USA. I think this is the only location within the USA/territories that also permitted transfer to foreign countries when there was a transfer round. If you attempt to acti...See More

@haha yes, I know I was surprised to hear the process from the Principal. It is very likely that one might not even be there when school begins due to HR and slow processing speed.

Turkey is a beautiful country with amazing history. Ankara is a very small school with children from the embassies in the area and you may find yourself with lots of different preps if at the middle/high school level. Its an amazing community. I am however, sad to see the changes in political climate since the 1970s-1990s. Stay safe and make local ...See More

Thanks for all the helpful advice. In response to a comment made earlier I am a bit naive in this process as I have only finished the application this past year and have already had tons of referrals. Your responses have helped me immensely. To that point, I assume candidates are ranked on certifications and years taught in that area or is there so...See More

@Jazz, As for ranking, consider how you answered the questions within the application. Make sure you were being truthful, but consider adding the experiences if you were unable to confirm them. HR ranks the applications and it must be based on what was put in the application itself. Then, the interviewers can choose who they want from a referral li...See More

It's pretty simple. Only accept an interview/job where you want to stay for a while. If you would like to work in multiple locations, you'll have to either go stateside a year or two, accept a hardship location if available, or get a promotion to another overseas location.
HelpOthers
I agree with ecd5. A transfer round it not looking likely in the near future and if it were to occur would not look like it has in the past. The current movements are occurring as excess movement (current position no longer in the manpower), promotions, moving between foreign countries and USA/territories, some within district transfers at the expe...See More

Do we send this form to our past admin/principals or to the district/HR we worked for ? Does the employer have to send it back through a sealed envelope or can they sent it through email?

@KMC I just tried to upload mine and it wouldn't let me either even though it was a .pdf. I was giving it the name "Employment Verification." It didn't give an error, just didn't add anything when you hit upload file. Then I tried by naming the document exactly the way it was listed in the drop down list and it then added it. Hope that helps.
KMC
@MyDOD Thanks, I got it to work!

I have no facts. But in light of Mr. Brady's comments at the last town hall I will humbly rescind my comment that I'm betting the transfer round will be back in two years. It certainly sounds like the transfer round is not coming back at all ... as long as Tom Brady is the director of DoDEA. But the man is already in his 70s, (and he can't work for...See More

Nope, no one (or at least no one who is likely to post here) has any facts on the situation (but anyone is welcome to contribute opinions). I agree that if they have gotten away with taking away the transfer round (with moaning from some teachers being the only consequences), they are unlikely to bring it back, barring major turnovers (or outside p...See More

It takes a lot of patience. It takes many people years to get hired.

I have been offered an interview at Sevilla ES/MS on MORON Air Base in Spain. Does anyone have any experience there? It looks like they only have a k-8 on base and I have daughters who will be moving into HS in the next year.
Can you accept an interview and still be available for other positions that might come up?...See More

Thank you Icanread....the pandemic has ensured that. You know, I read that some of those benefits are taxed? Is this true?

Yes! Read more here. https://www.dodea.edu/Offices/ResourceManagement/PCS-and-Tax-Changes.cfm
