Hi everyone! I'm a PYP/IB teacher with nearly 4 years of experience and I'm looking to transition into a corporate role.
I'd love your advice:

Which roles are best for ex-teachers?

Which courses/certifications are worth doing?

What salary range is realistic to expect?

Any companies that actively hire teachers into corporate roles?

Thanks in advance for your guidance!

I can tell by your questions that you're not focused on a specific job. You must first decide what you want and like to do and then determine how to go about it. For instance, when pivoting into a different career, your transferable skills are key. Have you led or supervised teams? Have you worked on projects? Can you meet timelines/deadlines? Are you a creative or critical thinker? Are you good at customer service such as describing items/programs to clients?

All these questions will determine if you're client-focused or not. Maybe you'd rather work with numbers and find a role in accounting or billing. Corporate training may be an option, but many companies outsource that today. Not all of them, but many of them.

Salary range will be determined once you decide what you want to do. As for certifications, if there's something you really enjoy such as project management, accounting, etc., there are certifications and courses you can enroll in.

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?
