Technical Presentation Behavioral

The interview process consisted of three distinct stages over several days. Stage 1 involved writing a 30-minute essay on a relevant topic, followed by 30 minutes of note-taking before a 50-minute Q&A session with the committee, and finally 10 minutes for my questions. Stage 2 was a 25-minute teaching demonstration on a pre-assigned topic to a large class of students. Stage 3 was a Skype meeting with two committee members and an administrator, lasting 30-45 minutes. Advancement to the next stage was required.
