Desventajas
I was hired for the upcoming school year; however, they didn't know which schools were participating at the time so I patiently waited. I was hesitant to start training before receiving a school placement as I was required to sign a form stating that if I completed training but didn't end up working in a school, I would be charged a $99 training fee. The business day before training started I was given a school placement; however, the morning of the second day of training I was informed that this was "tentative' and subject to change. They said they hoped to know by September 3, which is supposed to be my start date in a school, so naturally this concerned me. I was also required to sign a policy stating that I need to pay up front for the school district background check and fingerprinting and I will only be eligible for reimbursement AFTER working two weeks in a school. So this means that if I do not get a school placement I will be charged $99 for training AND will NOT be reimbursed for the district fees. I emailed my supervisor with my questions and concerns three times; however, she has NOT replied even though she has replied to different emails on the same chain and continues to email me regarding other issues.
