I have a friend that just got their couple of first teaching gigs.  I believe my friend has found something new and wants to make the most out of it.  Growing a program was way more than i ever considered when I started teaching.  I told him being patient and taking your steps is what a lot of that experience is especially when it's new.  What would you tell someone raising a program for the first time and they want to make a career choice out of it?

MyBandStaff is a service designed to connect credible music and band related instructional staff with the right job opportunities.  Although the service cannot guarantee your employment, it will provide opportunities that fit your skill set. Here are three tips for getting the job. 

Tip #1 Respond promptly to a job after viewing the description.  Waiting or delaying your response will decrease your chances.  The director is busy and may not choose to meet or respond to all that are interested. 

Tip #2 A complete update profile with relevant content that can be used to sell you.  This is how you will be introduced.  Think of it like a warm introduction,  so put your best foot forward.

Tip #3 Follow up in a professional manner.  This will show that you are serious and professional but know when to move on.
