I passed the interview for SMOE about a week ago and was about to send in my documents, but my recruiter said Rachel wants applicants to hold off until they (SMOE) finish up with a new sample contract.

Anyone else waiting on this? It took me a lot of time/money to gather these documents and I just want to get this whole thing over with.

Sorry, no info.

Currently employed by SMOE, just renewed. Now I have an open class, etc.

If you're a new recruit you wont come to work until August/September anyway, so your contact or SMOE might just be waiting to see how many current teachers are not renewing. (I guess?)

I'm going in for an interview Tuesday. If you want, I can let you know when I hear about the contract (hopefully I'll get that far!).

Thanks for the responses guys.

And Sland, don't sweat the interview. It's a piece of cake if you've ever had a job before.

I got hired by SMOE in April and I'm still waiting for the SMOE contract also. My recruiter said that SMOE will send the contract in May and I havent heard anything. So I emailed them about the status and my recruiter said that SMOE is working on the updated contract for 2009. So I have no idea when they will have the updated SMOE contract. I'm just patiently waiting. Hopefully they will send it soon.

2009 contracts seem to be late this year across the board...
Everyone I know (myself included) who is re-signing for another year is still waiting for contracts

(Whereas as other posters have said, and from what I've heard, documents were out by the end of May last year...)
