Hi, There is a job that I would be perfect for and I want to see if there is a way to circumvent HR by sending an email to the principal directly with my resume. I will fill out all the relevant details on TalentEd but it seems like going on there is sending something into a deep abyss that nothing comes out of. The best way of letting the principal know I would be perfect for the job, I believe, would be to email them directly. However, I do not want to do if it's just considered the wrong thing to do or totally worthless.
I would only say that principals that I have known, and I know several, have all claimed that such attempts to circumvent the hiring system are generally ignored, often found very annoying, leaving a bad taste in their mouths. I think sending your resume and letter of interest to the HR department of the school or district, while submitting your application as originally directed is less of a turn off.
I don't think the principal will read your resume. Ask someone who knows the principal to help you and you will improve your abilities Fnaf
I don't think this is a good approach. You want to apply to be a teacher at the school, not get into sales to spam the principal with emails. Besides, a personal conversation would still be better.
That helped me as I did it, and I got hired. I would still send the resume and paperwork to HR as it is possible that the principal will ignore your email. If you choose to email, keep your email brief. Principals get 100s of emails a day.
When I applied to my current school the job ad said to email principal with resume. That was the only reason I sent it to him. Otherwise I would have sent it to the district HR or whatever the job listing specified.
