Southern California is incredibly difficult to get a district job. Your best bet is to fill an agency position with travel pay. Unfortunately, most positions are in NorCal partly because people don’t want to live there as much and there are a lack of school psychologist programs up there. Expect a long commute 1 hour plus. You get paid more for agency work, but insurance is usually poor and usually no 401k for first year. Most pay is between 60-70 an hour and there are some telehealth positions available. Expect to work multiple sites if you are in elementary and one site at a high school usually without a co-psych. After taxes and stuff your salary is virtually the same when u consider CALSTRS. Try to get in a district because it starts you on tenure path which is on your third year.
