Been on DoDEA 8 years, never heard a mention of a drug test. That being said, if you are caught, you can say goodbye to your career. Recently a district office employee was caught drinking and driving by the base MPs. They sent him home.

As a federal employee, we do receive emails and there are commercials on AFN stating that we are not allowed to smoke pot, even if you are in a country or US state where it is legal. That said, there is no drug testing. If you receive a DUI, you will also probably be fired. DoDEA doesn't mess around with those either.

There are also a few ISS jobs - one in VA, Germany, and Okinawa. If you have a masters and the required experience (different for each one), you can also apply for those. You apply for those through USA jobs, I believe.

Agree. We don't generally have access to statistics but based on admin I know/know of, there is a mix of people who taught with DoDEA, were admin in the states or even taught in the states and their first AP job was with DoDEA.

I hate to say it, but it's also based on who you know. Like with teaching jobs, some positions are already spoken for before they are even advertised. They go through the motions and THAT person is hired.

@LolaTeach - I'm hoping that's the reason why a follow up interview in Jp hasn't happened yet - crossing fingers!!!

We were late to the game in terms of transitioning to online learning (Japan and the UK were the last to switch), so much of the effort is going towards supporting current teachers and figuring out expectations, as well as dealing with the myriad of parent complaints. It's a very, very busy time for admins.

Hi SLPs! I'm glad we have our little area to chat : ) Congrats @Stacyslp! that's great as Japan is my #1! How is your caseload? do you do push in/pull out? Any word of other positions opening up? @Heather where have you applied/got referrals to?
Heather
That is awesome! I have almost every overseas location selected, but I just found out from reading these posts that I had the assessor application and not the other SLP position so I added that one. I was added for 1 referral last week and now just super hopeful and anxious. A blessing and a curse, lol. Rota, Spain was my referral

Let me take that back. That is only an assumption.

Yeah, I started to respond in a similar way but then realized I had no idea. The time zone hypothesis makes some sense, but we have no idea if any part of the process is automated in any way. So, maybe?

As I understand it, the numbers on the stateside schedule represent the salary lanes. If you look back at an older salary schedule that had education/credits achieved in addition to numbers, it looks like Masters corresponds to lane 14. Stateside credits a max of 5 years experience, so that would put you at Step 5, under Lane 14, which should corre...See More
