First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Fulton County Schools.
Teacher
First, I filled out an online application on the FCS website. Then, I got a call for a screening interview. After that, the actual school reached out to me for an interview. I went in for an in-person interview with the department head. Then I had a second interview with the department head and the principal. Finally, they extended an offer.
- How do you approach classroom management?
- Describe your lesson planning process.
- What are your thoughts on rigor and relevance in education?
Paraprofessional
I got a zoom interview scheduled over the phone a few days prior. On the day of, they didn't send a zoom invite until the interview time, making me think they wouldn't show up. Once I logged on, there were several people on the zoom call, and they mentioned they were hiring for other positions, so others were also interviewing for those roles. It felt really unplanned, uncomfortable, and disjointed. They read questions from a paper, had to pause for school announcements, and didn't seem very engaged.
- What's your approach to managing disruptive behavior in a classroom setting?
Specialist
Very down to earth interview. Routine questions about present and past experiences. I had about five people in the face to face interview. They were very pleasant and upfront, but I had to decline as they wouldn’t even bring me in at the salary I was currently making and it was not worth over a $10,000 pay cut.
- Can you describe a challenging situation you encountered and how you managed to resolve it?
Elementary Teacher
It starts with a phone interview where you have to teach a 5-7 minute lesson over the phone, just to get into a candidate pool. I was nervous at first but got comfy fast. The interviewer was nice and not scary. Then, specific schools might call you for in-person interviews. This is a panel interview and you teach another sample lesson to the panel, acting like they're your students. After that, they ask regular teacher interview questions. It's a lot but not scary, and everyone was really friendly and approachable.
- Could you share your strengths and weaknesses?
- Describe your approach to math instruction in the classroom.
- What is your philosophy regarding communication with parents?
