Reading this post I feel like we are on the same committee. Experiencing this process has been very enlightening and I hope that I remember many of these points when I apply for jobs myself. Again, very well written.Matthew Staffordhttp://www.twitter.com/mwstaffordnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155965142976731610.post-12326410736285095682010-06-03T10:51:20.580-07:002010-06-03T10:51:20.580-07:00Most excellent.

When I applied for the substitute teaching position in a neighboring school district, I had the option of importing my info from my previous attempt to secure a position in my home school district. When I opened the cover letter, BAM! There was a stinkin' typo in the very first line -- "... interesting ...." instead of "... interested ..."! No wonder I never heard a thing -- I'm sure my application was jettisoned immedidately! Luckily, I was much more careful with this latest application, and I got the job. Live and learn! :)Betsy in Idahohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02750221156542981622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155965142976731610.post-38278874681970497122010-06-02T21:06:42.076-07:002010-06-02T21:06:42.076-07:00From someone who has crossed over, that is nicely ...From someone who has crossed over, that is nicely put, Barb...Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08243422197921388894noreply@blogger.com
