city teachers?

so i decided im going to apply for jobs in the city-i graduate with my masters and ill have my teaching degree in less than a month

my question is..i heard that the application for charter/magnet schools in the city is dif. from the application process to schools on li..that i can just call up and ask if they're hiring/if i can come in for an interview..is this true? how do you do city job apps, other than the ps schools?

tia!

Re: city teachers?

im a nyc teacher and i dont really know anything about this. i have heard that its much more difficult to get into a charter or magnet school because technically they are better schools and more teachers want to work there. so its a lot more competitive (just like if u wanted to work in queens). I wanted to work in queens as a first year teacher and it's like trying to find a job on LI. that's why i'm in brooklyn lol. hope i gave u some insight, sorry i couldn't directly answer your question
