"Get a Job" is the title of a late 1950's song by the Silhouettes. Also a common concern of recent and soon to be SoE graduates. If you have a job, congratulations! If not, consider adding the "CIMC - Education Employment" page (http://cimc.education.wisc.edu/ed_info/professional_guides/employment.html) to your job search effort.

Our Employment Guide features the following resources:

"50 States' K12 Employment Opportunities" - http://www.uky.edu/Education/TEP/usajobs.html
The University of Kentucky maintains this easily-navigated site of links to educational job listings in almost all states. In addition, they maintain a companion site, "Certification Requirements for 50 States," which is linked to the above job site.

"Educational Placement and Career Services (EPCS)" - http://careers.education.wisc.edu
UW Madison's education career website. There are pages addressing interviewing, recruitment fairs, and establishing a credential file on campus. Links within the site allow you to search for school district contact information in Wisconsin or nationwide.

"Occupational Outlook Handbook" - http://www.bls.gov/oco
This publication examines the nature of work and forecasts employment opportunities. It is used extensively by career counselors and job-seekers alike.

"Teaching Jobs" - http://www.teaching-jobs.org
"U.S. Job Listings," "Job Placement Services," "Private, Independent & Religious Schools," and other link categories.

"Wisconsin Employment" - http://www.wisconsin.gov/state/app/employment
Hundreds of school job listings! Search by keyword ("history teacher", "school psychologist", "librarian", etc.) or browse the entire "Education" Category. It's possible to narrow your search to a particular region or city.

And if you will be working on your degree for a while, consider:
