San Joaquin County Office of Education is hiring. Here's how you can apply

The San Joaquin County Office of Education is planning a job fair for Sept. 23 to recruit for a variety of positions, including substitute teachers.

SJCOE is also recruiting for permanent and substitute instructional assistant and substitute bus riders.

Instructional assistants work alongside teachers, supporting the instruction of students in special education. The SJCOE is offering a $500 sign-on bonus for permanent instructional assistants. 

Applicants must have a high school diploma or equivalent education. No minimum experience is required to become an instructional assistant; the SJCOE provides training and ongoing support.

To accelerate the hiring process, the SJCOE Human Resources Department will be offering the following free services at the fair:

• fingerprinting for background check 
• proficiency testing ($7 savings)
• transcript evaluations
• assistance with the online application process

On-the-spot interviews are available and those interested in attending the job fair are encouraged to create a profile at edjoin.org. Applicants with questions may contact Shawn Chavez at schavez@sjcoe.net or (209) 468-5952.
