Job Applications
All New Applicants or Employees Without WV Application System Accounts (formerly SearchSoft)
First time users of the West Virginia Application System website must create an account following the directions on the site and save their preliminary profile information regarding certification, tenure, etc. before applying for a job or transfer. This requires an email account.
Employees with WV Application System Accounts
Hampshire County employees who already have accounts must apply for posted openings by completing a West Virginia Transfer Application.
Substitute Teachers
Ideally, prospective substitute teachers should have a Bachelor's degree with at least a 2.0 Grade Point Average. They must complete an approved training program to obtain a substitute permit, but should complete the initial online application first.

However, at the current time, an emergency waiver due to a shortage of substitutes allows persons with an Associate's degree or at least 60 credit hours that do not constitute an Associate's degree to obtain a substitute permit. For this option, please contact the Personnel Dept.
