First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at ILSC.
Curriculum Developer
The process was incredibly professional, transparent and supportive to the candidate. The best interview process I have ever been part of. They respected applicants' time and had clear expectations. The interview was conducted in three stages over the course of a month. It was a strong professional experience.
- A lesson planning task was given.
Substitute Teacher
They will ask you about lesson planning, managing the classroom, tough situations you've encountered, why you're a good fit, and your availability for on-call teaching.
- Regarding lesson planning, how would you approach creating a communicative lesson?
Student Service Coordinator
All job openings are posted on Seek. After you submit your application, the hiring manager will reach out directly to shortlisted people to set up one-on-one meetings. During my interview, the hiring manager checked my skills in Word and Excel with some hands-on tasks. I also got questions about situations that might come up when working with students from other countries. A big part of the chat was about how important it is for these students to be good at English. Being able to speak another language, like Spanish, Portuguese, Chinese, Korean, or Thai, was seen as a big plus.
- How would you handle a situation where an international student shows up late for their intake day, seems really stressed, and can't speak English, and you need to get their student ID and important info for registration, but you don't know their language?
ESL Teacher
Sent in transcripts, cover letter, and resume via email. Then, had an in-person interview with the director of studies, skipping any phone screening beforehand. The interview was about 30 minutes long, followed by a tour of the campus and its facilities.
- Can you share a story about a great teacher you encountered in the past?
