Teacher certification issues when moving to a different state.

When moving from CA to NJ, I didn't really think that there would be much of a problem with getting started with a teaching job. Boy was I in for a rude awakening. Not only am I to re-take a qualifying test called the PRAXIS, but I also learned from various employees of school districts in NJ that NJ moves at a snail's pace when it comes to processing the application for certification.

I have three-years of teaching experience and an MS in Education and I can't get started with teaching in NJ - does this seem odd to you??
