I have only applied for overseas positions, but am thinking of opening up to stateside positions as well. However I have a few questions first.

1) Will teaching at a DOD stateside school help me to get hired overseas in the long run?

2) I have 12 years of teaching experience. How many of those years will be counted towards the pay scale?

3) Do you get LQA or any assistance when teaching stateside?

Any and all information is appreciated.

HelpOthers 1) Will teaching at a DOD stateside school help me to get hired overseas in the long run? *Possibly, if the hiring person is hoping for someone familiar with the DoDEA system and processes. And, they may trust the supervisor's reference especially if they happen to know them personally.
