Got contacted by the company for a phone call, and they set up an interview for the same week. I met with three people from the finance department, and they were all really nice. I heard back within a week. First, I got an automated email saying the job was filled, and then one of the interviewers sent me a personal email explaining that they decided to promote someone who was already working there.

To start, you'll need to fill out an online profile. You can find and apply for jobs directly on the CCSD website. After applying, you might get called in for an interview. When it's time for the interview, you'll meet with the administrative team. Sometimes it's just the principal, other times it's the principal and an assistant principal. There aren't any follow-up interviews, just the one. It seems like references are pretty important though.

Behavioral Presentation
I applied online using the Cobb County Star System. A lot of jobs on Star are not real positions. School administrators have to post open teaching jobs but don't have to consider the Star applications. They usually hire people they know or who were recommended. I had to email the principal and assistant principal my resume for any position I was interested in. The entire process took one day. The interview was a panel with the principal, assistant principal, and grade level teachers. Everyone asked questions. The principal asked me to bring a portfolio, and they kept it!

I applied on the County's website and then got an email with an interview date. The interview was with the Assistant Principal and another administrator at the school. They asked me questions about my experience and qualifications for the job, and we talked about the position's requirements and expectations.
