Job Search Services

All of our tools and services are designed to help you find a job that will be a good fit for you.

Resume and Cover Letter

Principals, as most employers, make very quick decisions when reviewing a resume.  Our job search specialists understand what principals are looking for as they review resumes. We will work closely with you to tailor your resume and cover letter and to ensure that you maximize your chances of finding a position here in Newark.   

Interviewing

Our specialists work with both principals and teachers on effective interviewing techniques and understand the types of qualities principals are looking for.  If admitted to the TeacherNex hiring pool, you will be invited to participate in a series of workshops, individualized coaching, and/or mock interview sessions so that you can become the most effective interviewer as possible. 

Individualized Coaching

Our job search support specialists will be available to provide one-on-one sessions to answer any questions that you may have about your job search.

Online Profile Distribution

TeacherNex will create an online profile on your behalf, which principals and hiring personnel will be able to access at any point, after you have become eligible to interview with our partner principals.  As you embark on your job search, our job search support specialists will also advocate for your candidacy by referring you to our partner principals who have confirmed vacancies and who believe that you are a strong fit for their school and the given position. 

School Fit Questionnaire

Before beginning the job search process, all TeacherNex candidates will fill out a school-fit questionnaire that is designed to match you to schools and positions that have a higher likelihood of being a good fit for your personal preferences, style and educational philosophy.  Your responses on this questionnaire will help inform all decisions that the staffing specialist makes in referring you to the right school leaders. We pay attention to teacher/school match in a way that no other hiring process does

Interview and Hiring Event Coordination

In addition to providing support in your job search, TeacherNex will coordinate hiring opportunities, including one-on-one interviews with principals and hiring personnel, networking events, and open houses at schools.

Certification Navigation

If you currently hold an out-of-state certificate, getting certified in the state of New Jersey, regardless of where your certification is from, is often a complicated, time consuming process. Our certification and testing specialists can help guide you through the confusion with the information that you need in order to be properly certified in the timeliest manner.
