The interview process was pretty good overall for the Los Angeles location. They asked standard interview questions that an employer would typically ask. It was an online interview that had a few days timeframe to complete.

The hiring and interview process is straightforward. First, you need to pass an evaluation to ensure you're psychologically suited for working with students in this capacity. If you pass, they'll email you with an appointment date. Once selected, you'll proceed to fingerprinting and background checks. Then, you'll meet with someone who will outline the areas where they have openings that match your qualifications. After these steps are cleared, they'll assign you to a location.

Behavioral Presentation

I put in my application online through Edjoin, and then they called me in to the LACOE office for an interview. First, I had to do a 30-minute writing prompt which was pretty straightforward. After that, I faced a 12-person panel where each person asked me one question. The HR director was there but didn't ask anything. There were principals from some schools on the panel. I got selected for a second round and will update after that.

  • What makes you the best candidate for this role?
  • What interests you about working for LACOE?
  • Can you discuss your experience with students and IEPs?
