Thanks everyone for the advice. I really appreciate it. I've checked with the locals in San Francisco and San Jose. Both *will* be accepting applications at the next quarter (April). The problem is that as I understand it, I will need to work days and do classroom at night in those areas. SF is ok I guess. Not thrilled to death to be commuting there day and night for the next five years. San Jose is 2 hours travel time a day. That would definitely be tough. But I will most likely apply at SF in April.
Thanks again.
Sam
