Applications_The Beginning
Teaching is an impacted profession at this time. As a result the application and interview process has become much more competitive. I have learned a few things that have helped me in my job search. Here are a few tips:
- Make sure your letter of introduction encompasses what the district you're applying for gives value.
- Make sure your resume is error free and as thorough as it can be without going over two pages, they stop reading.
- Take care to get letters of recommendation from immediate supervisors whenever possible.
- Sell yourself. I know it's hard and most of us grew up being told to be modest, but now is not the time. Think about it and be confident when asked about your strengths.
- Always be as neat as possible and organized on an application.
These are just a few pointers, but I'll explain more and give you experiences behind these pointers soon.
