[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks to the administration I just lost my job. I’m freaking out & don’t know what to do. I am a single parent with no financial or physical support from my ex. I’ve never lost a job, always moved on my own accord. I’m terrified. [/quote]

need more context, what are you skills, what is your job, are you a fed or contractor? What are you looking for support, advise, encouragement? [/quote]

I won’t give too much away as people will be able to figure me out, but think workforce transformation, education, etc. I am pretty flexible. I have my masters. If all else fails I can go back to teaching but I really really don’t want to. I don’t know what I’m looking for I’m just so scared. My car is a few months from being paid off. I still have years on my mortgage. I’ve been applying to jobs basically since December and I’ve only had one interview. [/quote]

I would substitute teach if you have the certificate until you find something else. Look at a leave replacement for the rest of the year maybe?  That way also if something comes up FT and you haven't found anything you could start teaching or maybe take over a parental leave or something.  A relative works at DCPS and has excellent benefits and decent pay.  If you have a child this might be a good idea especially with summer's off and a pension.

PWC has Workforce transformation careers, apply there

Seed Foundation has a couple roles up

Posse Foundation

University jobs

Teach for America and City Year have actual staff jobs around the country
