I continue to read about all of you who have been interviewed and placed and I am wondering what it is exactly that DoDEA is looking for when they are choosing who they pull for and interview or referral. Can anyone give me some clarification. I have been in the system for 2 years now and nothing has come my way.

Wanderlust I do currently have a connection in DoDEA. We have been working on getting me back in. I unfortunately had to leave due to a close family member being diagnosed with colon cancer at the time, so leaving is what was decided at the time. I am now ready to reapply now that my children are going adults.

SandArt Well, I hope this is your year, Wonderlust! Like you, I have two adult kids who are in college, so this is the perfect time for us to move out of the country since our kids will both be out of state next year.

haha Why do people ever leave DoDDS?

I can only answer for myself for the benefit of anyone else joining or working on joining DoDDS. Here is my two cents for what it's worth. DoDDS is/can be a great gig and we will probably never leave while we are still working. BUT, being overseas for basically the rest of your working life does not work for...See More

Wanderlust Thank you both for your comments. I greatly appreciate them.

SandArt Thank you, haha. I like coming back here to read other people's experiences. I plan on 4-6 years. Both kids will be graduated from college by then, so I know ahead of time that it won't be forever. I want to be a very hands on grandma, if that ever happens.
