The process was very straightforward. I started with a phone screening, and then I had to do a mock lesson with the principal and hiring staff. Make sure your lesson is really engaging, thoughtful, and well-planned.

I had a phone interview first with HR from the network, then an in-person meeting with the school administrators. That was followed by a demo lesson where they gave me a topic and student assessment results and I had to teach a lesson targeting the students' scores - that was the hardest part. Afterwards, I debriefed with the principal about the lesson. They also checked my references and had long chats with them.

Presentation Behavioral

So I had a phone call, then I did a demo lesson, and then a virtual interview. It was a virtual interview because of the pandemic. We talked about the demo lesson and had some laughs. Unfortunately, I didn't get the job because they said I lacked enthusiasm for teaching, which I found weird because I shared my hobbies.
