Applying for Jobs While Living Abroad

The long and winding road has begun: I've been job searching for the 2012-2013 school year already. Just like any job search, there are disappointments lining your path with an ever constant feeling of frustration to keep you warm at night. The most frustrating part for me however is that I live thousands of miles away from these schools and 13 hours ahead in time. The most frustrating emails of incomplete files received and scheduling conflicts always wake me up in the morning which is never good to start a day with.

However terrible it has been, there is a glint of hope in my educational heart currently. After submitting no less than eighteen applications over the past month or so, I have had two interviews, one job offer, and I'm feeling good about some other prospects. I'm waiting to hear from an interview that I did last night (at midnight mind you...) by the end of this week, so keep your fingers crossed for me! I will keep you all posted as I hear (hopefully) from prospective employers...
