Well, for those who love to play the what if transfer round game, here is the first list with 97 openings:

https://www.opm.gov/healthcare-insurance/healthcare/plan-information/premiums/2018/non-postal-rates-hmo.pdf

For those new to the game, these are openings for current teachers who apply to the transfer round. These positions will likely never make it to stateside hires but in theory, filling them should leave similar size holes behind (unless they get filled through back fill by someone else in the transfer round, then that should leave similar sized holes from whatever schools THOSE teachers come from).

In practice, the lists probably aren't that useful to external candidates but we always pored over them every year anyway and looked at locations, certification combinations etc.

Apparently (as posted on FB) this list has a lot of errors in it. There will be subsequent lists posted with corrections, additions and deletions as the transfer round...See More

HelpOthers I have learned over the years, that the transfer list means very little for potential new hires. As was mentioned in the original posting, Someone moves from their current teaching position to fill a slot in the transfer round, leaving an opening (often different from the one they are accepting) for another person in the transfer round to fill, etc...See More

haha True, but we always enjoyed checking out combinations and openings around the world while waiting (especially since there wasn't a whole lot else you could do). Looks like an updated list has been posted with openings increased to 102:

HopefulTeacher How does this first list of vacancies compare to previous years? Would you say it's equivalent, less or more?

ATeacher It's about the same that it's been for the last 6 years.

haha So far it seems a little light but pretty close to the past few years. Going back 5+ it seemed like it was closer to 200 openings most years (if I am recalling correctly).
