Event Format
The TRC will operate on an entirely open format. Each school district will have an "open table" where you can stop by and talk with school representatives throughout the day. Should the school representatives choose to interview teacher candidates, they may do so at their table. School District Representatives may opt to move their interview location. Be sure you know the location of your interview. The location could be different for each interview!!
Sign-Up Period
Although the entire day will be operating on an open format, from 8:00 - 9:00 a.m., all school representatives will be at their table to speak with teacher candidates about openings and, if they choose, schedule you for an interview. It would be to your best advantage to be at this event ready to speak with districts by 8:00 a.m. Registration begins at 7:00 a.m.
HOW TO OBTAIN INTERVIEWS AFTER THE EVENT:
TRC Resume Book
Each school district that attends this event will receive a TRC Résumé Book which will include all candidates' resumes who meets the March 20 TRC Résumé Book deadline. The TRC Résumé Book will be indexed by certification area. Many school districts refer back to this book to contact candidates as openings become available in their districts.
Many school districts will also refer back to Bobcat CareerLink to select candidates as positions become available in their district. With this in mind, it is critical that you keep your resume updated in the online system.
