Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at New York Film Academy.
Instructor
I met with a committee of three people for the interview. They were very nice, respectful, and the atmosphere was relaxed. They were interested in my background and shared information about the school's culture, noting similarities and differences compared to my previous academic and professional experiences. The environment felt friendly and open, which I'm comfortable with coming from LA. They want me to set up a mock teaching session for our next meeting, which is something I've done before and know how to handle.
- Could you describe the types of classes you have instructed?
- What is your approach to teaching students from diverse international backgrounds?
Instructor
The interview was straightforward and I got to show my skills to a panel who listened. There wasn't any follow up, I had to call to check in and it felt like the hiring manager forgot about it. They said 'Oh ya! we want to hire you. Start next week.'
- Can you provide a demo teaching lesson?
Instructor
Got referred by a friend to the department chair. Sent my CV and bio and then the chair contacted me for an interview. I met with her and got hired, but with the condition that I come in and teach a mock class to some faculty and students.
- Can you share your teaching experience?
- What about your professional experiences?
- When are you available?
