New coaches can only apply for coordinator coaching jobs (as their reputation is too low). If there is a CPU HC (head coach) you should be offered right away however if there is a Human HC he will have to approve and determine your salary (which atm has no purpose other than pride). During the offseason you can bounce around and apply to different schools or pro teams while on other teams but during the season unless you are unemployed you cannot apply for other jobs.

Here is a video tutorial to step you through getting a job and using the map.

Admins: Iamshado and Beermonkey

PSE Time:
-Every day is one week in the season (rollover is approx midnight central time)
-PSE season is set to run one season every month

Hours: Kind of like "Action Points" or the currency of how much your coach is allowed to do every day. When you perform action you use hours.

Description of hours from admin: "You use your hours to do certain things like traveling or creating plays. When you run out of hours then you just can't do those certain things until the next day when you get more hours. Or you can get hours with Empire Points (from your account home you can buy them or earn them with referrals)"

Things that cost hours:

Evaluation players
Running practices (6 hrs for offensive/defensive practice, 8 hrs if filmed)
Traveling (varies, planes take less hours than by car but you have to travel by car to get to the airports)
Recruiting: (including scouting, visiting, calling)
