Behavioral Technical Presentation
I applied online and got an interview invitation within a week. The interview itself was okay, though it got a bit weird when I overheard the Head of School say that I probably wouldn't show up, even though I was already there waiting for her. After the interview, I was given a 'written exam' where I had to watch some videos and write responses. I didn't put a lot of effort into it, but maybe I should have. Despite having a Bachelor's degree and significant experience in early childhood education, they seemed to ghost me. After waiting over a week for a follow-up Zoom interview, I reached out to the Head of School, who said I'd hear from someone, but I never did. It was a disappointing and time-consuming experience.
