Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at HESS International Educational Group.
English Teacher
The interview process was pretty chill, like a casual chat. We mainly discussed how children learn English in Taiwan. Given my 10+ years of teaching experience, they didn't really hit me with any super tough questions.
- What strategies do you use when students aren't paying attention?
English Teacher
It was an online interview. They asked me some general questions. Then I had to give a demo lesson based on material they sent me beforehand. A big chunk of the interview was about whether I'd agree to the school's contract terms. Towards the end, they asked me to read something aloud and mentioned they prefer an American accent.
- What are your thoughts on participating in school events such as Sports Day or graduation ceremonies?
- Would you be willing to sign the school's contract?
- Please read this passage out loud.
English Teacher
I found the English Teacher position online and applied through their site. After that, they reached out via email proposing a Skype interview. The Skype interview, which was with a Western English Teacher, went pretty well. They asked me questions about teaching and how I would handle working in a school. The interview itself was professional and chill. I got an offer after the interview and got to pick a city. Then I flew to Taiwan for a few days of training and orientation.
- How do you maintain student focus and engagement during lessons?
