I applied and then got a call to set up an in-person interview, which happened about a week later. I met with the school's principal for the interview, and the questions were pretty typical. They offered me the job, and I accepted it back then.

The interview process involves scripted questions, and they won't ask follow-ups based on your answers since they have to stick to the standard questions. You'll encounter general questions about your teaching knowledge and situational scenarios covering various aspects of a teacher's job.

The interview process is really biased and never about actual skills, it's all about who they like, who they know, and who flatters them the most. It's super corrupt. Someone reported it to HR, and when COVID hit, that person was suddenly fired. HR and the district didn't do anything to stop the corruption and kept their friends in power. I really enjoyed the job itself, but hated the office politics.

Behavioral Technical

I had two interviews at two different schools, and they were quite different. The first interview had the principal and a teacher from each grade level interviewing me. At this school, they actually printed out the interview questions for me to follow along, which was pretty nice. They asked me about 12 questions. The second interview, at a different school, involved the principal and vice principal, and they asked around 10 questions. They totally didn't follow up with me after that second interview, even though they said they'd be in touch either way.
