Behavioral Presentation

The interview process was straightforward and without issues. I started with a panel interview alongside the team I would be working with. The next interview was virtual and conducted by the individual instrumental in bringing the GEAR UP program into the school system.

I went to the fair that happened in the coliseum. First, they screened through resumes. After that, one lady interviewed me asking behavioral questions like 'how will you handle a student with difficulty in learning?'. Asked all behavioral questions.

Behavioral Technical

The difficulty of interviews and how fast you hear back can really depend on how badly a school needs teachers and how many people apply. For my first job, they hired me right away with super easy questions because that school was desperate for teachers. For other schools, they asked about using data tools, my knowledge of CKLA, MTSS, and classroom management. If you know a principal, try to get a feel for potential questions beforehand. If you have a dream school, maybe don't use it for your first interview to get some practice. You want to move fast though, because the 'better' schools get filled up quickly.

Confirmed questions4 questions
  • What are your strategies for managing a classroom and what's your knowledge of MTSS?
  • Can you tell me about CKLA and how you use and track student data to address their needs?
  • How do you involve parents in their child's education?

Presentation Behavioral

The interview process was okay, they made promises that didn't quite match up with reality. They told me not to use rulers, but then the curriculum kind of needed them. Also, they weren't a fan of the size of the cubes I was using, even though I was specifically using centimeter cubes which are great for teaching addition.
