Just followed up with Dream Job, again. They still have no openings and a back log of people who have already been hired waiting to start when openings become available. They have no idea when they will be scheduling new interviews, but I will "more then likely" be called for an interview whenever they start up again.
I am trying so very hard to not be discouraged by this, or feel like I'm getting 'led on' by them. I just feel like there will never be a light at the end of the tunnel.
Sorry to be such a debbie downer, but I wanted to keep you all in the loop since you were all so kind in encouraging me to apply.

[QUOTE]Is the teaching job market better there? Where I am it's pretty hard for recent grads to get full time teaching work. That is a great idea, it couldn't hurt to get the certification.

<div>It's not fantastic, but places are hiring. I would want to teach HS, so that might make it easier. I'm also going to look into getting a masters in political science (as an alternative) so I could teach at the community college level. </div>
[QUOTE]well then, back to the drawing board...

GOOD LUCK!
[QUOTE]Lennon, I am so sorry this is frusterating for you. I am in the same boat(ish) right now. I had a dream interview for my dream teaching position.. and everything went perfectly. I still havent heard from the principal, but when I called and talked to the secretary she told me no decisions have been made and that she WILL call.. so its frusterating waiting. <strong>Its like I know i am still in the running otherwise they would have already cut me loose, but some insight as to WHAT is happening would be lovely! </strong>Keep your chin up, everything has a way of working itself out, and the right job will come along at the right time.. thats what I keep telling myself at least!!! GOOD LUCK!

</div><div>That's sort of how I'm feeling. I know that they have flat out told people they won't be interviewed at all. So at least I'm still in the running? IDK</div><div>
</div><div>I keep thinking of that old Indian saying "Everything will be alright in the end. So if things are not alright, it is not yet the end." </div><div>
</div><div>I just honestly have no clue what else I want to do. I have contacts up the wazoo there, I interned there, I worked for 2 years in the same field in law school. This was supposed to be it for me. Now I just feel like crawling under my desk and crying...b/c ya know, I'm an adult. </div>
