The interviewer was really nice and upbeat at first, and they responded quickly when I applied. But then, for reasons I don't get, they just stopped updating me on where things stood. They didn't explain anything or get back to me when I emailed them with all the stuff they asked for.

I applied for the Director position back in January 2021. The following month, HR sent me an email thanking me for applying and interviewing for a Temporary Counselor role, which I never applied for. In March, the HR director reached out to schedule a phone interview for the Director position. During our conversation, the HR director lacked basic knowledge about the role, like the typical number of 8th-grade students for high school prep and the list of high schools where students enroll. The interview felt like a formality, with the director asking standard questions without connecting them to my experience or the job description. Our call dropped, and after a five-minute delay to reconnect, the HR director asked if I still wanted to continue. I decided to proceed to gather enough information to realize this isn't a place I'd want to work soon.

Behavioral Presentation
The interview process was quick and professional. The HR director was very approachable. Seeing the classes in action before the interview was helpful. The interview questions were typical for a teacher role, focusing on experience and mission alignment. For the demo lesson, make sure it's well-paced to include an assessment at the end.
