Saw this brought up on TOC but I want a real answer and advice. The wife and I want to move from this area, we have a specific area in mind but if good jobs come along we can be flexible. Talked to my coordinator a couple of weeks ago so he knows I am looking. He suggested I do not put my resume up on THSCA, the way I understood him, it looks desperate. He said to start emailing the schools in the area I want to go to now. How do you see it?

I wouldn't post it on a website. I would send it to individuals if I were wanting to get to a specific area and didn't know anyone. But would probably do neither honestly.

Yes, don't ever put your resume up on a website.

Call AD/HC at schools you are interested in. See what they have available, follow up with an e-mail with your resume and what not. A week or so later send a follow up e-mail thanking them for the time to take your phone call and you look forward to hearing from them.

Maybe just paperclip a glamour shot to it? This is also a great route to take. I find that if you go to your local wal-mart or mall they take the best pictures. Make sure to include things like your amazing cat so that the admin at the new place know a little more about you.

I've never put my resume on THSCA or any website. Best is to e-mail resume to schools you like or if possible hand deliver them. *Note* Do not expect to be interviewed on the spot when you drop your resume off, we had a dude come by a couple of years ago that wanted to drop his resume off and stuck around following us for like 3 hours wanting to talk to the HC... it came off as too desperate.

I don't think it's desperate at all to put your resume on THSCA. It does lend to a wider range of jobs. But if you already have a specific location in mind, I wouldn't post it. You'll just get an influx of emails from everywhere across the state.

Can you not pick one region on the THSCA board like you used to able to? If so, you could just send it to that region. The region offices still open?

You'll just get an influx of emails from everywhere across the state. That pretty much sums up my thought, but I'm not 100% sold we have to move to a specific area. It's just our perfect world scenario. I wouldn't turn down a great job in a decent area. But the AD at "great job in a decent area" probably isn't pulling resumes off THSCA

don't.... DO NOT... put it online. think of the thsca resume board as a year round coaching school job room. No bueno, and you would never get on where you wanted to. on top of that, it's a good way to be shipped out of where you currently are if it didn't work out. Just email the HC's in the area your resume and tell him you're interested in any openings they might have. Be honest about your situation.

I still don't understand the issue with THSCA....what's with the negative connotation? I've gotten a lot of good leads from it.
