Also, it seems like referrals only happen (or not) after a posting closes. Is this correct?
What's the difference between a PD Specialist and an ISS? The jobs have similarities so I'm wondering if there's a ...See More

Also, the USA jobs application process does not ask for references and I've seen several posters mention references. Should I attach a list to my application?

I applied for both for the PD position as well. I think the biggest difference is the classification of GS 13. It requires the general experience AND two years of specialized experience( common with the GS 13) which differs from the ISS postings. I also think the PD positions will qualify for COLA but not LQA.

You are permitted to live on most military bases, but there is not always housing available for civilians.

We live on post here at Fort Knox. We pay 950 a month for rent and do not have to pay for utilities. DoD civilians are only able to live in certain neighborhoods. Our neighborhood has very old homes, many homes have mold problems along with other issues. We also are not able to utilize the commissary or px.

There are other factors to consider such as how references rate a candidate, years experience, previous DoDEA experience, etc. I'm still not convinced it's random because how would you ever know if you were on one list or another? The email notifications are definitely not consistent which causes confusion. Admin can access your info in EAS, see yo...See More

@haha did you see the list? I did and they were ranked by veteran, military preference, civilian Gov employees, prev DoDEA experience, and everyone else. Not exactly sure how applicants are rated within each category but I assume what I mentioned above plays in.

@haha Thank you for always responding! I have started looking into courses to add to my certification. Just trying to narrow down which online program would best and subject area to look into.

I received a referral for a ms math position in okinawa a couple of weeks ago. No request to interview and won't anyway.

For secondary subjects they usually spell out a certain number of hours needing to be "upper level" (generally 12). Upper level would usually be at least 300/400 level under graduate courses (graduate level will also work for that requirement and would come in handy to qualify for a higher salary lane).

It really depends on your undergraduate and graduate coursework not your teaching certifications. You have to send your transcripts and HR will tell you exactly what classes you need to add for a specific category. I've sent mine in and then had to write back course descriptions and how they actually apply to the coursework they are requesting.

I received this email AFTER I had been back and forth with HR all day about getting into my account. Still not sure why I couldn't get in, but when I tried to reset password it wouldn't let me bc I had no questions as the email indicates. And when HR gave me a temp password to finally get in to change it, the system wouldn't let me change it to wha...See More

HInt - I told you to renew your tourist passport and driver's license.
There are no guarantees in life, but there is a high probability that you will get an offer. The offer may take weeks to arrive.

@IsitFriday? - I am in Japan and a vehicle was excluded on my orders from CONUS.
IsItFriday?
@Happy Teacher
That's very interesting. Did you question that exclusion? Did they provide a reason?
Just my opinion - if you actually owned a vehicle that met Japan import standards, I bet that HR would have authorized a POV shipment for you.
I'm guessing that as most US vehicles are not eligible or shipment to Japan, tha...See More

Wow! Thank you everyone!
haha
Ah, thanks for the firsthand input. I will stop saying the pay/benefits are comparable. It always looked that way from the blurb that was posted on the website. It does make more sense when you realize that they list a salary and say they also offer housing, but don't really spell out that the listed salary INCLUDES the housing allowance).

I interviewed for one grade but was hired for a different grade level. It also took about 5 weeks before I received my tentative offer.

I interviewed for 2 different positions in one interview once so maybe
