After applying to MCPS about 5- 6 weeks prior, I received an email to sign up for a screening interview. This is the initial interview that determines whether you are a good fit for the county. After selecting on the days offered to interview (two days were available with a 9am- 4/5pm time frame). Then I was called about 5 days later to agree on an exact time and was requested that I send my resume. I was given the choice of a phone interview or a googlemeet, and I chose a googlemeet. Positive experience. First is the screening interview for a teaching position before further interviews.

It was a long day filled with people of all areas of life. No interview. Drug test interviewed in sections according to certification. I have nothing more to say. The interview was located at mcpss home office. The interviewee was confident yet abrupt.

It was challenging. Interviewing with Elementary, Middle, and High School was totally different. The main point was to see if I was able to adjust to these different atmospheres and if I was willing to travel.
