It was super straightforward and easy. The interview was mostly a get-to-know-you session, focusing on how I'd handle different classroom scenarios. They presented various situations and asked me to explain my actions.

Behavioral Group
The interview process went really well overall. The staff interviewing were super friendly and professional. It was a panel interview, so if you get nervous with multiple people, practicing beforehand might help. Sadly, I didn't get the job because they were only hiring one person, but it's alright.

Behavioral Other
I got contacted by a bunch of different elementary schools through phone calls and emails to set up an interview. I picked one, and then went to their campus the following week for an in-person interview. They offered me the job the very next day after the interview. After that, I went to IUSD HR to finish up the paperwork, and then I started working the week after that.
