Hello! Hola! I truly need some help and advice right now. I worked as a teacher six years in Washington state. I moved to TX a month ago. I am going through the hiring process in a school district and I have to sign this form called: " Statement concerning your employment in a job NOT covered by social security". I never signed this form before in WA. I called the SS office and they said this could affect my retirement and the credit that I already earn back in WA. What should I do? Any advice

You’ll get to double dip - social security for your old job and teacher retirement pension for the new one. It’s what my mom does.

Because they have their own retirement fund which is much better. Your other option is to work in a private school. This might be helpful

Texas has a pension for teachers. If you plan on retiring here, you'll be set. If you don't, I believe you can withdraw your contributions plus 2% annual growth when you leave.

Have an offer from a dream company but I'll need to go in at a lower level.

If I hit all my goals (ie, prove myself) within that time frame, I'll get a promotion and salary adjustment.
QUESTIONS:
Should this be in writing in the offer letter?
How detailed should it be? I assume I won't know what goals to set till I start...

Feeling like I’ve been “bait-and-switched”…

I’ve been interviewing at an agency with the intention of filling a Director role. Recruitment reached out soon after my last meet-and-greet interview (about 6 to 7 people total) to tell me the team thinks I would be best suited for an Associate Director role with a fast follow of a Director promotion.

Recruitment can’t tell me what feedback is creating this gap but also won’t stop mentioning the positive praise and feedback the team had for me.
