I have been on a few referral lists for elementary teacher positions in the last month or so. I just accepted a tentative offer for a fourth grade position a few days ago.

@ms896. Awesome where at? I just can't hit a referral, it's my first year applying, and I have heard of a lot of waiting done by others...

Thank you for your reply. I guess is depends on each situation. Specially now with the pandemic.

I'm on a referral list for SLP assessor at Rota, but no interview, yet. I've heard it's a dream location!

I was completely surprised! First off, I didn't feel to confident after my interview. Second, my tentative offer came in 2 or 3 weeks after the interview. I had basically moved on decided to check my EAS on day and saw it was frozen. A few minutes later the offer email arrived and chaos ensued! It was a great time!

I was pleasantly shocked. I felt that the interview was going well (despite time difference, being interrupted/cut off several times due to dodgy phone connections in our overseas country, etc.) until I asked about the time frame for making a decision. We were obviously curious, but our jobs were also ending and we realized that within the next wee...See More

I seem to recall that my 2nd year in they brought the transfer round "back" in limited form after a two(?) year hiatus. Since then, other than these past (two?) years, I feel like there was some type of transfer program every year (except one?), but wouldn't swear to it (the years do start to blend together).
I agree that since I have been...See More

We're in basic agreement.
Can someone verify my memory, as yes, they years do blend together.
I am confident there were no transfer rounds in

That's fully 50% of the past eight years. Did I miss a year? Was another transfer round also postponed/canceled/eliminated? Are there mistakes on my lis...See More

The salary didn't include any years of experience, how do I go about having them review that?
Also it says not to do anything like quit your job yet, at what point should I tell my boss? They are going to have a really hard time finding s...See More

I agree with your interpretation Teach8311. The sentence's key word is "and." The "and have a break..." part is all one phrase. The "reside in the US" is a separate phrase. It doesn't indicate how long you must reside in the US.

Hi, everyone! Thanks for all of the advice. I am happy to report that after a stressful week of waiting, I did receive LQA and am waiting for the background to clear to receive the Official Offer. I received LQA based on being in the U.S. for the entire recruitment process, so it seems that is the new rule. I will add that the experience has been m...See More

If they are going from OCONUS to DDESS, that is not a transfer. They are joining the pool with everyone else and are lucky enough to get picked up. I can't speak for the management directed moves, that's highly unusual.

Teachers could have gotten "transfers"(management directed move) to stateside schools if their positions were excessed and there were no overseas positions available for them. Many are considering going stateside then reapplying for only locations they want to go to. I've even considered it!

Thanks!

It "should" speed up the process but there is no guarantee. But, there are many stories of teachers having recent background checks (current teachers, new hires, moving from sub to full time, etc.) and being required to do them all over again.

It's so hit or miss. When I went from DoDDS to DDESS, my equip was due, but they never updated it. Another colleague had to wait the whole school year! They assigned her a line of sight, so she could work. She was also internal. Another one only took a few months and was done by the time school started.
