Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Chicago Public Schools.
Student Worker
I was asked some good questions that made me think about my future. They listened to me and my worries. They were patient. The interview was a good length and I didn't feel rushed.
- Can you tell me about your strengths and weaknesses?
Intern
It was a really easy interview process, nothing too difficult. They wanted to know about my past experience and what I was hoping to get out of the internship. Standard questions about strengths and weaknesses were also asked. If you look over common interview questions online, you should be fine.
- Can you describe a situation where you worked on a team project, detailing the outcome and your specific contributions?
- Tell me about your previous experience.
- What are your expectations for this role?
Intern
Most of the interview consisted of behavioral questions, focusing on my interest in public health and serving CPS students. I'd suggest preparing some behavioral question examples to share.
- Can you tell me about a situation where you took the initiative on a project?
