Our Job Search Assistance for Teachers program offers job search
assistance to our credential candidates as well as support to the
employers who seek to hire our candidates. Referred to as
JSAT, the program is supported by Teacher Education faculty,
staff in Student Services, our partners at the Internship and
Career Center, alumni of our program, and administrators from
local school districts.
For Teacher Candidates:
Beginning in their Winter Quarter, credential candidates are
provided a series of events and services to support them as they
begin their employment search. The JSAT process provides
guidance and support on a wide variety of issues involved in a
job search, such as:
- Resume and cover letter preparation through written examples
and in-person assistance
- How to establish a profile and apply for positions via
Edjoin (the premier education job website)
- Interview tips and practice questions
- Practice interviews with local district employers where
verbal and written feedback is provided
- A hiring Job Fair exclusively for UC Davis trained teachers
- Weekly employment emails informing candidates of recruitment
events and notices of job openings
For Employers:
If you would like to hire a UC Davis trained teacher, we offer
the following services to assist you:
- Send us your notice of job fairs so that we may share them
with our credential candidates. Send to: credentialanalyst@ucdavis.edu.
- Beginning in early March, send us your job openings so that
we may share them with our credential candidates. It is helpful
for you to provide information on your community, why they should
consider your district, and next steps in the process if they are
interested. Send to:
credentialanalyst@ucdavis.edu.
- If you would like to be considered for the 2023-24 Job
Fair, please e-mail credentialanalyst@ucdavis.edu. Participation
in the Job Fair is limited and invitations are offered to
our partner districts, districts from a variety of geographical
locations, and districts who hire our students. Consideration is
given to other districts based on space availability. Each year,
we also review student feedback after the fair and evaluate our
attendee list for future events.
