Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Perspectives Charter Schools.
English Teacher
It started with a phone screening where they asked about my experience, my favorite book, and my salary expectations. Then, I had the main interview. I was told beforehand about a demo lesson. The interview itself was good, and everyone was nice and welcoming. The interview panel included the Principal, Assistant Principals, HR, and a teacher. A couple of people were a bit late. They asked some general questions, and then I did my 20-minute demo lesson. I got the offer the next morning.
- Could you share your favorite book?
- What makes you want to work at this school?
Teacher
I was first contacted by the principal via email for a phone interview. After that initial call, the principal contacted me two more times to provide additional details about the in-person interview location. I then had a three-hour in-person interview with the instructional coach for my subject matter. The principal was not present for most of the interview. The interview took place in August in a room without air conditioning. Despite the conditions, I was offered the job during the interview, which was a positive outcome.
- Prepare a lesson to present.
Teacher
I went to the CPS job fair and spoke with a recruiter, giving them my resume. Later, I got a call for an interview and a 20-minute demo lesson on any topic, which I would do with the department's instructional leader and a teacher. Then, I had a phone interview with the principal. This was to make sure I understood that the job was in an urban setting and that I had good classroom management skills. It's a good idea to check out their website and be familiar with their College for Certain and A Discipline Life models. Also, be ready to talk about current best practices like differentiation and backward planning.
- Tell me about your classroom management style.
- How would you describe your approach to classroom management?
