Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Mesa Public Schools.
Teacher
It was a really fast and smooth process. Everyone I talked to was really knowledgeable. The interview was over the phone, and I found out where I stood right after the call. They did it over the phone to make it easier, and it took about 30 minutes. Mesa's application process is pretty involved though, with essays and everything. A common question they ask is about your teaching philosophy, which is something every teacher should have ready.
- Could you share your teaching philosophy?
Teacher
I was first screened, but not hired. Years later, I was affiliated with the school again. The principal wanted to hire me, but I had to face a panel of 4 principals first. That was tough; they were stern and seemed to be testing my ability to handle pressure, much like the administration does. Eventually, I got an offer.
- Can you describe the elements that make up a reading program?
Instructor
It was a straightforward interview process. I was asked a few questions, including one about my experience and how I could incorporate real-life examples into my teaching. I got the job at Community Adult, and it seems like a relaxed and supportive place to work.
- How would you integrate practical, real-world experiences into your classroom instruction?
