STA was extremely helpful every step of the way. My counselor was always prompt to respond to my questions. The best part is that they helped me to find a position that fit exactly what I was looking for. I actually got a position through the career fair, so don’t skip out on those! I am extremely grateful for their help. I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to be connected to the school I connected with except through STA. Thank you, STA!

My wife and I were making a big move across the country and I needed some help finding a job. Southern Teachers helped tremendously. I worked with Joseph, and he was very reassuring throughout the whole process. I was a little concerned when the job fair was canceled due to COVID, but Southern Teachers made sure schools still received my information. I ended up landing a great job - I could not have done it without the help and guidance of this great service. I highly recommend this service to anyone looking for a job in education.

Southern Teachers is an excellent placement agency, especially for new teachers such as myself. It can be difficult for anyone to find a job in a competitive market, but is made even more difficult when you have certain preferences that can be limiting in your search. Thankfully, Southern Teachers made the job search incredibly simple and presented numerous opportunities. They send your resume/job profile to schools that fit your preferences and some of those schools will then reach out for interviews. There is a lot that Southern Teachers does behind the scenes that eases the individuals job search. Very professional organization.

This agency helped me find a job right out of grad school! They are helpful, friendly, and diligent! I gave them details on what I was looking for and which states I would like to move to, and they did a lot of the work in locating and connecting schools to me! I highly recommend this agency if you are interested in working in private schools anywhere in the South!

I have two years of teaching experience. They sent me a generic response rejecting my application and did not bother to respond back to notify me why they did not accept me. I read reviews elsewhere saying similar comments to my own. I do not appreciate their lack of professionalism.

Southern Teachers helped me with two job searches: one in 2018 and one in 2020, securing me placement in the latter search. I mostly worked with Colin, but I found out that everyone I talked to was familiar with my search. I had VERY narrow parameters in terms of geography (one region in one state), in terms of age group and subject (11th and 12th English), and in terms of school type (private secular, non-military and non-residence for faculty on campus). They were always professional, understanding, and caring, and they checked in with me every two weeks. I have worked with at least two other job placement agencies in the past 3 years, and Southern Teachers is by far the best.

I cant say enough about the work of Southern Teachers! Carey Goodman, Jamie Estes and the rest of their amazing staff always take the time to first get to know who you are as a person and use that knowledge to find the perfect fit for you as a professional. Undoubtedly, the care and concern they show you throughout the hiring process is what truly sets them apart in the industry. With Southern Teachers, you are not just a potential hire, you are family.

I have worked with STA on two separate occasions. In a world where the hiring process grows increasingly impersonal, Southern Teachers took the time to get to know me and my job preferences. I felt known throughout the process. They really went above and beyond for me at the in-person conference and helped me find my dream job! I could not recommend them more highly. Register with STA- you wont regret it!

Southern Teachers Agency (STA) helped me to find an excellent job in an extremely competitive field. I am hardly the only person to want to teach English at a prestigious boys school in the Northeast. That I was able to realize my ambition is due in no small measure to the efforts of my STA placement counselor, Zach Dresser.Understand that STA is a matchmaker. Schools like the one that hired me pay STA to find them the sorts of teachers they seek. If in STAs judgment you are not a good fit for the schools that keep it in business, it will not accept you as one of its candidates.

Southern Teachers helped me to find a job in a very competitive field very quickly. Communication was always prompt and helpful in answering questions and adjusting my search as I narrowed my parameters. Immediately upon being accepted by Southern Teachers, I began receiving communications from numerous schools regarding phone and Skype interviews - so many that I had to turn down a number of them. I was grateful to find an organization that could make finding a job, normally a stressful process, so smooth and stress-free!

The agency was very easy to work with. Chris Asquith helped me and did a great job checking in on me and my progress. He answered all of my questions as thoroughly as possible, and everything went very smoothly and swiftly.

Southern Teachers does an excellent job of making strong matches--in my case, Colin Manning and Dr. Carey Goodman landed me at my top choice job, at a school I never would have found or applied to on my own. Most of the schools they referred me to were just the sort of place I was looking for, and schools that heard about me through Southern Teachers clearly trusted the judgment of the agency to a large extent.

They are thorough and professional- I believe what makes them stand out is the fact that they work to find the right fit, not just for candidates, but for schools also.
