EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Thank you for your interest in the Newport-Mesa Unified School District. You may apply at any time for consideration of employment using the links below:

Certificated Open Positions
Certificated Management Open Positions
Certificated Substitute Teacher Positions

Your application must be completed electronically. Principals and Site Administrators will view your application on the web at any time allowing all applicants equal opportunity to be hired.

How can I get information about specific job opportunities?

How will I know that you have received my electronic application?

If you provide us with an e-mail address on your application, you will receive an electronic confirmation if you have successfully submitted the application. In addition you will receive a confirmation message and number on your computer screen after you have clicked the submit button. You might also receive an error message, which will direct you to make certain changes and resubmit.

What should I expect after I submit my electronic application?

After you have submitted the application, you will receive a confirmation email with instruction to attach your supporting documents online. Your supporting documents must include a cover letter stating the position for which you are applying, a current resume, three current professional letters of recommendation, copies of your CBEST scores, subject matter competence exam scores (CSET, PRAXIS/SSAT, MSAT, NTE) all credentials you currently hold, and all post-high school transcripts. Hard copies of these documents are no longer accepted for certificated applications.

Can I make changes to my application once I have submitted it?

I sent in my electronic application, but I have not heard from any principals. Can you tell me the status of my file?

Please keep in mind that all principals have access to the database where your application is stored and that they make the contacts for interviews. We are fortunate to have a very large applicant base, and therefore, not every applicant will be contacted. Once the school site makes a recommendation for hire, the final hiring process is taken over by the office of the Director of Human Resources. Feel free to email a one-page resume to any site where you see an opening that interests you.

Any current unit members interested in positions posted on the Newport-Mesa Unified School District employment website will have priority consideration for open positions. For priority consideration, current unit members must apply to open positions by submitting a letter of intent to Human Resources and by completing the online application.

Requests for priority consideration for current unit members who are certificated and qualified for any open position, will be accepted at the District’s Human Resources office only when openings are posted.

All deadlines for openings must be met in order for current unit members to be given their priority consideration.

At this time, there are no transfer applications available for our employees to fill out. If you are interested in a transfer please apply via the open position application process.
