We’ve started to post vacancies for the 2015-16 SY in our SearchSoft (www.sfusd.edu/jobs) application system and currently have over 140 positions posted.  We anticipate more positions opening up in the next few weeks and months.  As such, we’ve scheduled several recruitment events in the next few weeks to give us an opportunity to connect directly with interested applicants.  See below for information about our application process and upcoming events and please share this with your students and alumni.  I’ve also attached a document with more comprehensive information about our events that you can post on your job boards.  We look forward to meeting many of your students in-person at these events and connecting them with administrators to learn more about our schools and positions in the fall.
