Job Search
The search has been exhaustive, but I have made several positive steps. I managed to get in with a broker firm for specific types of jobs. Sunbelt Staffing operates as a contractor; paid by schools, hospitals, and institutions for vetting and placing people in those hard to fill positions. So I work for Sunbelt, retain publishing and all intellectual property rights, get paid by the hour and have more flexibility, while still using my education and skill set as well as working with troubled youth.
That association has turned out to be very beneficial for me. My advocate was able to get my certificate transferred easily and has a list of possible jobs.
To that end I interviewed with a therapeutic day school, only about 18 miles from the house on Tuesday and am doing a follow up observation on Thursday. I think they are afraid I will run screaming into the night over some of the behaviors. My guess is they will get past that pretty quickly. I am more interested in their program demands, intervention strategies and curriculumn.
So I’ll know more as the week progresses, but so far, so good.
