Thank yo...See MoreWhat is needed to be certified to teach AP classes with DoDEA (highschool)? Is it an overall AP certification or endorsement or is it content specific?
Will DoDEA honor additional transcripts after an offer has been made? Can you submit more transcripts later? (cannot get additional transcripts because schools are closed)
Yes, DoDEA will generally review transcripts and increase your salary lane after the offer or even after you are employed (and should also continue to add subjects areas to your cert if that is what you are wanting to know).
When I look in the File Attachments section of the EAS applicaiton "resume" is not listed in the "type" drop down. Is there a type of file that a resume fits under that I am not figuring out, or is there just no reason to upload a resume?
I recall reading about former employees needing copies of performance appraisals, but don't recall the exact advice. I will try to find it and post it.
It looks like I'll be traveling one of the days training is scheduled. I'm very concerned about this. Are teachers allowed to take days off during summer virtual high school?
IsItFriday?It's virtual, and much of the instruction is asynchronous.
Nobody is watching your every moment, or going out of their way to track you. Just get the job done, and no one cares what you do for that particular day.
People do get sick, even in virtual teaching, and even in the summer. Just be a trooper, and maintain instruction.
HR and HQ regularly share that there are thousands of applicants in the EAS. (it 's less sharing, and more a boast. They do it sometimes to remind teachers that they are replaceable.) They should only rarely have trouble finding a qualified candidate.
When there is trouble, it's invariably because HR has screwed up, or Admin is playing games, trying to direct the system towards a favored candidate.
There is a very serious amount of favoritism built into the system. Watch the senior Admin types. Invariably they end up in positions that are very convenient for them. And there are often last-minutes openings which are filled by a spouse. Senior admin types seem to get very lucky at finding slots for which their spouse is the best qualified candidate.
So, if you get a referral, no ingerview request and then later you get another referral for same position thats basically kiss of death right? I interpret that as meaning the initial list wasn't satisfactory so they are looking for someone else.
masterscandidate2016You never know what a principal is looking for. The first referral, they could have been looking for a specific name or only picked people they had heard of or interviewed the top 3. I, personally, don't think this is the kiss of death.

Is it common to never get a referral? Or do many people get referrals, but the interview is what's truly rare? I see many SPED and SCI referrals, but I presume that's because they are in the highest demand..
As for USA Jobs, read the posting carefully. It will tell you exactly how to apply. It may direct you to EAS (teaching positions) or it may instruct you on how to apply directly through USA Jobs. Your resume needs to clearly show how you meet or exceed their expectations for the position, so not the usual 1-2 page resume. Review the videos and lessons provided for how to create a resume for a government position. If you neglect to include any documents or mention of key elements, your application may never been seen by someone who understands education or your position.
I am an external applicant and so new to DoDEA. I got only one referral email so far and no interview offer. I am anxious, but cannot do anything on my end. I am a math teacher with almost 10 year experience including teaching AP courses. When is the exact hiring season for DoDEA?
