[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To the poster who said her friend is getting lots of rejections:
My district is getting resumes.  Unfortunately, they don't have the appropriate endorsements and aren't qualified to teach in our schools.  The other thing we see are people who can't spell, who give terrible interview answers, who have bad references, and more.  Are you sure your friend is qualified for the jobs she is seeking?  And are you sure she is giving decent enough answers to questions?  What does her resume look like?  I saw some of the resumes my principal is getting.  Some of these have emojis on them.  I am not kidding.  
Though for us the biggest issue is that we need all our candidates to have an ESL endorsement and people don't have that. [b] I am very surprised the state isn't allowing us to hire people on the condition that they get this endorsement within a few years. [/b] [/quote]

DP. I'm sure that's coming. I just hope they're smarter about it this time around. They'll hire any warm body to "teach" SPED even if you have no relevant degree or experience. You just have to have a Bachelor's in any subject, take an intro class and do some professional development. It's been a huge mistake.[/quote]
