Open market transfers, update
Principals have begun putting vacancies on Galaxy. The open market picks them up. As of this morning almost 1000 vacancies were posted, almost 100 in math (the only subject I bothered checking). There’s about 25 guidance counselor slots, 20 paras, maybe 30+ school secretaries. (click on “Title” twice to sort these jobs towards the front). Note: the search utility does not function.

If it is your first time, you will need to register. Your user id is ABBBXXXX where A is your first initial, B is the first 3 letters of your last name, and XXXX is the last four digits of your social security number.
There are listings. Are there jobs? It will be interesting to learn what groups of teachers have difficulty transfering. If you make over 50k and you are having problems getting interviews or actually landing a position, assume salary discrimination (against your age or level of experience). Contact the union.

Dumb (?) question for you: Once I’ve registered, do I have to do anything else? (One school I’m talking to asked me to register before my demo on Thursday, and I want to make them happy.)
Yes, you should apply for that school’s vacancy in your license area. That way, should they like you, (and vice versa, don’t forget about that) they can process you right away.
WHY AM I NOT ABLE TO ACCESS THE INFORMATION THAT I POSTED USING MY DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION USER NAME AND PASS WORD ?
You need to ask the DoE directly.
I was days away from a transfer then my present principal axed it! I don’t know what she said but the principal I was interviewing with turn stone cold, and his tone so harsh it felt as if I was sitting in front of well… you fill it in. Basically, he no longer wanted anything to do with me.
