WTF is wrong with KellyEd?

Honestly. I am currently mostly through with obtaining my substitute liscense and the hiring process with KellyEd and I swear to God I don't understand how the process can be so goddamn complicated.

I've had no luck getting actual-facts answers or clarification about a part of a step or required documents or paperwork or training video. When I reach out, the responses I get are full of the exact information, generally incomplete when compared to the task, that I already have on hand.

Mind you, I am not a dumb person. Hell. I've been a nursing supervisor with psych patients for years. I know how to follow very vague instructions that are riddled with details.

This is my THIRD stab at getting through the process.

Third.

My mom is also a teacher and even she hasn't been understanding how it works.

I've gotten to the point where I *FINALLY* have a face-to-face, real-person in real life meeting next week at the local BOE. I believe the agenda is "What a Day of Substitute Teaching Looks Like" or whatever. I'm hoping to get some of my confusion cleared up either way.

Why the hell haven't I been able to meet a real-life person before now? I've paid license fees, background check fees, fingerprint fees, and even $5 for my transcript, that I already have, to be emailed from the company I originally got it from. Oh! And I'd already submitted it to KellyEd.

Twice.

I realize this doesn't give much detail [privary] and has turned rather ranty [exhaustion] but COME-ON!

What's KellyEd been like for you?
