An initial interview may be followed by any combination of the step below:
- An interview with a panel from the hiring department.
- A one-to-one interview with the hiring manager.
- An interview with the County Superintendent of Schools.
| STEP V: Employment Offer and Assignment |
When a candidate is selected, the hiring department will discuss the general
terms of employment, the anticipated assignment, and will submit an Employment
Authorization to Human Resources. Human Resources contacts the successful
candidate to verify the assignment, answer specific questions, and discuss the
process and placement of initial salary.
An official employment offer is then mailed to the candidate. The candidate
should review the offer, contact Human Resources with any additional questions,
sign and return the offer letter to Human Resources to accept employment with
the SCCOE.
Because SCCOE program sites and student populations continually change, all
teaching contracts are issued “subject to assignment,” no one is guaranteed
a specific school assignment. The hiring department assigns staff in accordance
with the needs of the student programs, considering the preferences and
qualifications of staff.
| STEP VI: Employment Processing |
The successful candidate will be contacted by a Human Resources Specialist to
schedule an employment processing appointment. An I-9 form is required by the
U.S. Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA). To complete this form, a
certificated employment candidate must bring valid picture identification and
documents that establish employment eligibility (e.g., social security card).
The Employment candidate must also bring a social security card for payroll
purposes. Employment processing includes the following:
- Negative results of a chest x-ray or intradermal tuberculin test taken
within the last 60 days prior to employment by a private physician or county
health department.
- If selected for a safety sensitive position or assignment, a physical
examination paid by the Office.
- Fingerprint clearance by the California Department of Justice (DOJ)
- Verification of the credential eligibility according to the assignment.
- Candidates (in regular, provisional, or temporary contracts of at least a
50%) are informed of and may enroll in available health and welfare benefits
(eligible dependents should also be enrolled at this time). Candidates may
choose from three (3) hospital/medical plans. Dental and vision coverage is
also provided along with term life, disability and business traveling
insurance.
The SCCOE contributes to the California State Teachers Retirement System (CALSTRS).
Employees also contribute to their retirement.
- Candidates sign their contract and are appointed by the County
Superintendent of Schools.
