If it's the same one I just found on http://federalgovernmentjobs.us/ (literally had no idea DoDEA jobs were ever posted there) then yes, it looks like it would be split between:

I didn't know about that site. Does it have postings that USA Jobs doesn't? I need to check it out. My application has been updated, so now we wait...

I wouldn't go that far. I would say (just from my own narrow experience/observation) that many/most teachers feel that too much money is spent on above school level positions (while we are told there is no money for other things that we do value highly)..
In general, it seems that many ISS positions (and the leadership mentorship program) ...See More

Speaking from my experience only... I feel like, in general, teachers look down on the ISS's because there are so many of them and some who seem to do nothing (especially for what they are paid). And quite honestly, it's frustrating when teacher positions are being cut, classes sizes are bigger, but HQ continues to hire for ISS positions. On the pl...See More

As a milspouse I have had a few referrals and a few interviews with zero luck. I am highly qualified and I also am frustrated. I was told that they would rather hire the less qualified CONUS applicant who will move and be at the location potentially indefinitely, then hire a more qualified local hire who will only be at the location for 3+ years.

I understand Chris and I'm right there with you. I'm not a teacher so there are even fewer vacancies that come up and limited jobs in my career field. It's frustrating to make referral lists and not even get an interview and find out that a stateside candidate was hired. It's faulty logic that a non mil spouse candidate will be there indefinitely. ...See More

Good luck Tay! I think that updating my app is what triggered my referral in November also. It happened almost right after doing so.
haha
If you are up for being proactive, come up with a well-crafted letter and send it the possible principals (expressing great interest in interviewing for any possible positions, highlighting skills, experience, etc). You never know!

Hello BeyondHopeful I would say don't give up. I also have been in the system for over 2 years. Almost the entire first year I was still pending though. In November I took off my transcripts and uploaded them again. I received my first referral almost immediately after. That led to my offer. I agree that when a position becomes available that you h...See More

Thank you so much for your feedback and positivity. I am definitely not giving up. Hopefully I will get an interview in an area I have experience in and it will go well! Fingers Crossed!

Q1. What advice can you give us about moving to DDESS? Is there anything that we should know in order to make the move go more smoothly?
We are having HHG shipped to our HOR and have requested the car go to the VPC closest to the new duty station.
Q2. Any thoughts on us ...See More

HR will probably mess up your leave. As you are an older teacher, you may have built up a substantial amount of leave. There's a good chance that the leave number on your Dodds LES won't be reflected properly properly on your first LES from Ddess, or your second, or your third....

Icanread--I just went through the process so this is how it went. DDESS gave me 100% of the years with DoDDS, except for the year I entered in January and the year I am in now. Neither of those--the first half year and the one I am in now--meets the 150 day measurement mark for "a year" in the eyes of DDESS. They then sent me a form to give to the ...See More

I would humbly like to thank all of you who have provided invaluable feedback to those of us who are attempting to enter the DODEA system or in the process of entering the system. I have been eyeing a position with DODEA for the past 2 years and in my first year of applying as a special education teacher this year I was blessed wit...See More

I did some research today. Here's info about the "FOREIGN TRANSFER ALLOWANCE (FTA) - PREDEPARTURE SUBSISTENCE EXPENSES". The link is... https://www.dodea.edu/Offices/HR/employees/allowances/fta.cfm. You wouldn't be able to submit for it until you have access to DAPS - the allowance processing system website.
haha
Better late than never. Submit it and see what happens.

I have recently submitted my application for DODEA and was wondering if there are any 'next steps' to take. My qualifications have been approved for Grades 1-8, Middle School Mathematics, and Secondary Mathematics. My husband is also applying and is a secondary special education teacher. Any advice would be much appreciated!

Hi. Not really. If this year follows past practice, you will get an email in February or so to update your application (i.e. review the information and click submit, reupload documents and re-finalize your EAS). You won't have to re-qualify unless you submit new areas for consideration).
Other than that, it's mostly waiting and hoping to g...See More

It depends on the location. Different countries/complexes have different rules about bringing pets into the country. On the other hand, Japan is one of the tightest (I think) and people bring pets over all of the time.
