Substitue Teaching; a Resume Filler

ok, yesterday we discussed the possability of doing things like recruiting people to buy hosting to make an income on the side that pays decent money. Today lets go over some resume filler jobs that don't pay the best but can very useful to your resume. 

Did you know that subsituting at your area schools pays half way decent money? It also creates a referrence to give prespective employers. For example I live in north Alabama area, and sub part time. Meaning I work about 1 day a week in the school system for about $70 a day, keep in mind i have a bachelors degree. High school or GED pays about $54 a day. There are no benefits and it is a first come first serve basis but can be a great referrence. 

Keep in mind that you will have to get a license in most states. Typically you will need a clear TB test (can be done for free at your local health department), a finger print background check (costs about $50), and of course a subsitute license you get through the state  costs about $40. 

This does take little time get all your paperwork in order so plan it taking about a month. 

Our school district uses a automated program called AESOP so when a teacher enters a day they need a sub it appears on the subs personal computer or you get a phone call asking you want the assignment. again its first come first serve. some teachers also have preferred subs that get the call first so keep that in mind. 

If your system does not have a system like AESOP then you want to get business cards to take to the schools in your area and let the teachers know you are available.
