Interesting position. Seems very elitist and non-inclusive. Maybe that stance contributes to why rural areas in America don't support the democratic party.

You look good and it looks like you're making an effort to do so. That first impression is a huge first step in interviewing! Good luck!
Where do you think 99% of restaurants supply their food from? It's all store bought. They just make it for you.
Wild, I cannot imagine school showing that
What a weird comment. They are not even remotely comparable.
Honestly, it was a bit of luck.
We live in a larger city in the the Midwest. Looked on indeed frequently and applied for a position at a privately owned - medium/large sized company that is headquartered in our city.
In terms of experience they were looking for 3 years of design and course curriculum. My wife had more of that, just in a different industry. Also required a bachelor's degree and she had a masters in education. A lot of overlap skills but different titles.
It also helped that her hiring manager and two peers on the team were former teachers as well. Luck was definitely involved.
They did request sample work before one of her interviews. She YouTubed a walkthrough on how to use a free instructional design platform and threw something together. A lot of the skills and platform knowledge she has now was self taught through Google and YouTube.
Good luck to you and your wife. Teaching is a challenging career.
You're 100% right. My wife has a masters degree in education and spent 7 years as an English teacher with 3 very different types of schools in different districts. She left to be an instructional designer (with zero experience in that field) and nearly doubled her salary overnight.
If America wants to take education seriously they need to stop screwing over teachers.
Rant:
I had a pretty intense acid trip once and came to the conclusion that nothing matters, there is no meaning to life, there is only an illusion of free will, and most likely our existence and personal experiences in life will be completely forgotten within 3 generations (almost like we never existed to begin with). I was super duper depressed after that for several months.
It eventually gave me a different outlook on life though. If it's only temporary and there is no meaning, I can create my own meaning and enjoyment in life. Live in the moment, do what you want, and create as much meaning and enjoyment for yourself as you can while you have the opportunity. Don't worry about what others might think because eventually their existence is going to be forgotten as well.
The act of dying might suck, but being dead and not existing seems very serene. Sometimes things just sort of end.
I honestly love that statistic. It's like a venn diagram of Trump screwing people over, people dumb enough to buy NFTs, and Trump supporters. It looks like this 🔴
My wife and I have an Australian shepard named Olive. We've already committed to getting a mini and naming it caper
