Those of you who moved on from being a teacher and into the Ed Tech world, where did you find your jobs? I’ve taught science for 11 years and worked as camp director / program manager this summer. I’ve easily applied for over 50 remote jobs but never hear back from the various companies. Has the hype around teachers transitioning to Ed Tech been overblown? THX

Team just applied for a TS Clearance (defense agency). Trying to assess if it makes sense to wait till the clearance comes through (6 months to a year?) before I job hop. I'm hoping to get some clarity on the following:
1. Can my company withdraw or cancel my clearance if I leave right after I secure a TS?
2. In terms of compensation, how much value (% compensation) does a TS clearance have in the DC area? Places I'm considering: AWS, Azure, GCP, Data bricks, Appian etc.
Any advice, thanks!
