@Education1st - Is that forum set as private? I do not want any work colleague seeing any of my posts or comment on there.

@ VATeacher, yes it's private. However, if you are worried about your identity being known then you can create a fake profile and request access. And just put you want your identity to be private. There are currently 56 members https://www.facebook.com/groups/538804653677909/
With PCS moves at a standstill and a hiring freeze in effect, it seems that many openings would come from retirees. I don't knwo of any DODD teachers who just leave/resign because they WANT to stop working/return to public school (understandably).

@Missamy, if you want to communicate privately with individuals, you may want to go to the FB page and request there, due to the messenger capability. https://www.facebook.com/groups/538804653677909

We are all in fact tiny needles in a giant haystack. Better to be like the military child and bloom wherever we are planted. Adopting the attitude has helped me so much as a human and a professional. Of course easier said then done when you get a referral or even more so an interview!

Couple of Questions
Whether it shows up as an international number or not just depends on how that person calls you. I agree with others, definitely answer the phone. They're generally not calling just one person. If they can't reach you, but reach five other relatively equally qualified candidates, there's no reason for them to go to the trouble of calling back. Not ...See More

No Simply realistic. Teachers are a dime a dozen. There are about 2 million of them in the US.
Principals are busy with all sorts of ridiculous issues generated by District and everyone else above them in the chain of command.

I was recently offered a tentative stateside position which is great but I have a few questions and was wondering if anyone could please help. I am very honored for the job offer but I did not know that the highest you can be started at is Step 5 (I'm on 14), that insurance would need to be paid by the EE (I currently get free...See More

1. If you decline this offer, then you're probably done for the year. We can't answer about the "probability" portion of your questions. Don't grasp at straws.
2. You can't transfer. There is no transfer. You'll have to win your job overseas, just like you won this job offer.

Thank you everyone. I did my interview today and was only asked two of the "standard DODEA" questions which definitely had me a little nervous. For everyone's curiosity, it wasn't a panel, so just the principal and there will be no follow up interview.
haha
Interesting. Good luck! Hang in there!

Hello, that's me! I'm an awesome school psychologist. I'd be thrilled to work for DODEA overseas. I have only had one referral though, with no interview requests. I was wondering how competitive it is for schools psychs to find employment through DODEA. Everything will work out in its own time, but if you have any knowledge/insight on the matter, I...See More

In the past there have been very few openings, but I know of at least three for next school-year, so make sure you have EVERYTHING uploaded newly this year. Do not just leave the old transcript and certificate from last year.

I believe the activation key is the long string of letters and numbers at the end of the link you are emailed By teachers.net.

I guess it would be similar to a new graduate adding info in April, awaiting May commencement.

I would agree that AP certs are one of the rare exceptions. Since AP certification is awarded based on short workshops by College Board, (as opposed to by earning certain numbers/types of college credits and providing official college transcripts) it can be something that the principal requests as a condition for being hired.

Like when unable to upload an educational certificate, I suggest adding a statement about when the credit is expected to be earned. You indicate the areas that you want to work and think you are qualified. Go ahead and include what this credit is going to qualify you for. Upload a scanned copy of the official transcript after the credit is earned a...See More
I pulled up my app in EAS yesterday and reviewed my profile. Not sure why I did it, but I did. To my horror, I realized the email address under my profile was from a school district I worked in 6 years ago.

@SLPnyc- that will depend on the person requesting the interview. They may ask someone to call and make appointments, or they may send e-mails. I think in my case, they were in a hurry and didn't want to wait the time e-mails can take.
Couple of Questions
And remember, you will not automatically get a referral email either. My husband never received an email telling him he made a referral list, but the year he was hired received two emails asking him to interview. He accepted one and here we are.

If that is the case, they likely cannot pull a referral list. There is so much going on at the schools right now, that hiring is probably on hold a little anyway.
haha
Can;t say for certain, but would tend to agree. It is likely to slow the process down a bit.
