I have reach back out to the companies and I could not get a hold of anyone that could provide me any update. I will take it as that I was not chosen to move on to the next stage of the interview process. I will remain hopeful that the process is slow due to the jobs being on the Space Force base. I guess I&#8217;ll continue applying for other positions I find on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/jobs\/\">LinkedIn<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The cool Substitute<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While I continue to look for a job where I can use my almost newly obtained degree, my wife suggested the idea of becoming a substitute teacher. To become a s<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctc.ca.gov\/credentials\/leaflets\/30-Day-Substitute-Teaching-Permit-(CL-505p)\">ubstitute teacher here in California <\/a>you need a bachelors degree and need to take the<a href=\"http:\/\/www.ctcexams.nesinc.com\/TestView.aspx?f=HTML_FRAG\/CA_CBEST_TestPage.html\"> CBEST test<\/a>, along with a few other things like background checks etc. The CBEST test has 3 parts a reading, a writing and a math. They also cost $30 each to take.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Study No Thanks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The CBEST test has a first time pass rate of 69%, my wife tried to scare me into actually studying for it. Since I am actually spending money on the test you would think I&#8217;d study for it. Nope I just scheduled it and went for it, I took the Math portion 1st. I had 120 minutes to answer 50 questions. I then took the English part which was 50 questions in 100 minutes.Lastly I took the writing where I had to write 2 short essays. You need a total combined score of 123 to pass the test. I scored a 141 just think what i could of scored if I actually reviewed some of the material.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"765\" src=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/4688\/files\/2021\/10\/sub.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-110\" srcset=\"https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/4688\/files\/2021\/10\/sub.jpg 960w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/4688\/files\/2021\/10\/sub-300x239.jpg 300w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/4688\/files\/2021\/10\/sub-768x612.jpg 768w, https:\/\/osu-wams-blogs-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com\/blogs.dir\/4688\/files\/2021\/10\/sub-376x300.jpg 376w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No news is good news is not always true The last few weeks I&#8217;ve had a few interviews, some phone some in person.
