DODD Teachers Chatboard

@sunny After I was notified of my selection I received a formal offer letter. I had 48 hours to accept and return the formal offer letter. Next I had to complete an electronic questionnaire for a background investigation and submit fingerprints. Right now I'm waiting on the background check to clear so I can receive a start date. The position is st...See More

Good afternoon,

I have an interview for an ECSE position in Japan with DODEA on Tuesday evening. I have never interviewed before and I was wondering if anyone had any tips that may help me? Any support is appreciated.

Thank you

Let me try this again since my last post was awkward...Has anyone recently interviewed and How long does it take for an offer on average?

bondo I interviewed in early March and did not receive the offer until June! The offer came 1 day after submitting my signed contract with a local district. A district that was unwilling to release me from this contract. So, the dream job with DoDEA is on hold for yet another year.

Anyone know if there is a quick well quicker way to get a visa? Where do I start in this process? Also, once I have my travel orders and I start the visa process is there anything else I need to do before I can PCS?

haha Congrats on the position and location. The downside of the UK is that yes, you do need the visa and I had heard it was a pain and expensive. Sorry no words of wisdom on the subject.

I recently transferred schools within my district. My new administration is amazing, and super organized. My old school, the exact opposite. I would like to add my new administrators to my references. Can I remove my old ones since they only hold 4? My old ones are so disorganized, they probably wouldn't return a phone call or email if I were to ha...See More

Teaching position offer at Fort Stewart

by Tim

Oct 24, 2016

I haven't received too many answers yet so I wanted to reach out to you guys since it seems a lot of you have a lot of knowledge about the process. I recently accepted a position and wanted to know if there's anyone to reach out to about housing, etc. Basically anything I can find out about moving down there. I've already been doing research for aw...See More

kgteach Hi, the district area where I will be working is a 4 hour drive from my current residence. I got an offer in the Americas Southeast District. My formal offer letter stated that relocation costs will not be funded by DODEA. Richmond Hill is a very nice area. You should also look in the Savannah area as well.

I will be moving from Fort Bragg to Fort Knox. I accepted the full-time school psychologist position there. They have not had a school psychologist this school-year, so I need to go as soon as possible. This means my position should be listed soon if any of you are qualified and want to move to NC.

Passport and Travel Orders

Niknak were in Japan are you headed? OK I'm a little curious about the passport. When I called for an update on my check some of my documents have been misplaces.... I haven't sent my passport in and I was wondering if any of you have had misplaced items and lost passports....

samantha I NEVER received any information about the passport at all, so I took it upon myself to do it. I found the main persons email online and contacted her directly. From start to finish it was a total of about 5 days before I received my passport in the mail. You commented on my post about where I am heading-I'm going to Korea! Hopefully this week!!

With a whole list of things I have to do before I leave,but they sent me the original travel orders from last month when I was supposed to leave-- which was a month ago, I hope they fix it on Monday so I can start the process for moving. I waited for so long and things are happening so fast to leave now !!! Crazy!!!
