Resume

by richie

Jul 4, 2016

Could someone please show me a great resume or resume expectations for a DODEA school. I'm trying to get into Yokota Air Base schools. And can your spouse go with you even if they are not employed currently? Thanks.

haha Generally you do not need a resume, you just complete the EAS online application (which has all of the information that would be on a resume built into it).

Are you stateside or already in Japan?

From my experience and what I have been told by principals (FWIW) they don't really use resumes in their recruiting and decision making.

They are first interested in people that have the certifications they need for the specific position they are recruiting for, then they look at years of experience, education and anything else that would make you a valuable asset to their school (e.g. addition certifications, training, skills/talents etc). Complicating all of that is that they mainly go by referral lists that get pulled directly from the EAS information on your application (not attachments) and that things like veteran preference, family preference etc will put some people higher up on the list then other people.

On the other hand, it doesn't hurt anything to put something together in the form of a resume and upload it and if you ever make a referral list you could send it to that specific principal to hopefully peak their interest. There are many good sites for resume building. This one is more for int'l school teaching but might be helpful:

Getting into DoDDS is generally considered a long shot and trying to target one or two schools in particular from stateside makes it even longer. Any particular reason you want Yokota more then any other location in the world? Although I will say that I have heard many good things about Yokota and Japan is definitely amazing.

Oh, and if you are hired by DoDDS they would pay for you and your whole family/household to move to your new location (and housing for your whole family while there).
