The
online application is for use by teachers, administrators,
paraprofessionals and other professionals applying for a position.
Application Process
Once your application is received in Human Resources,
processing begins. This can take from two to four weeks and includes
sending for references and completing the criminal history check. You
will be notified by Human Resources if you need to schedule a
departmental interview. Due to the high volume of applications,
Sharyland ISD cannot interview all applicants.
Hiring Process
Only offers for employment from Human Resources to an
applicant are valid offers. You will be notified by Human Resources if
you are to receive an offer of employment.
Interview Process
Principals will contact you directly for campus interviews.
In order to make the interviewing process as
streamlined as possible, please do not contact principals directly by
telephoning or "just stopping by" his/her office. Principals are very
busy, especially during the spring hiring season; however - as an
optional activity, you may send a principal a written letter of interest
with a resume. A list of addresses is available through the Sharyland
ISD web page.
Timelines
Sharyland ISD accepts applications twelve months a
year. Applications are processed throughout the year, and hiring takes
place throughout the year. As would be expected, the busiest hiring time
is in the spring for the following school year. Most spring hiring is
done in April, May and June; therefore, applicants interested in being
considered for the fall hiring should turn in an application as early as
January.
