I submitted an online application and had two references send in their recommendation forms. Later, I was contacted by Principals. My interview for the school I was hired at happened right before school started. I liked the school building and staff from the start. The principal mostly read from a sheet but also asked a couple of her own questions. It felt like this role was an afterthought since hiring teachers was the priority, and I later learned I was one of the last hires before the new school year.

I applied online and had interviews with two different schools. I was told the school I preferred was hiring a transfer teacher instead. However, both interviews went well and felt friendly.
