First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Redwood City School District.
Elementary Teacher
I had one Zoom interview in 2020 with the current admin, which lasted around 45 minutes. They asked me the typical teacher interview questions you can find online. After that, they checked my references. I got the decision by phone call within 24 hours.
- What strategies do you use to support English Language Learners in your classroom?
Middle School Teacher
The interview was held on Zoom with two principals and another staff member. They were nice and patient and let me ask questions at the end. The questions were about me and my teaching style. They also touched on how one of the schools has a community focus and family involvement.
- How do you get students interested and motivated in learning?
Information Systems Manager
I applied online and after a few days, they sent me an email scheduling the interview and a performance task. On the day of the interview, they gave me the questions to review before we started. The IT Director and the person in charge of technology integration for the district interviewed me. It took about 30 minutes, but since they could only ask questions from the list, the time really just depends on how much detail you give in your answers. After the interview, I had to take a written test that was all IT related and pretty current. The test content was relevant to the job.
- Tell me about a time you had to work with a difficult coworker and explain how you managed the situation.
5th Grade Teacher
Submitted my resume and cover letter to the district HR. Then the school's principal reached out via email, and I had an interview and a sample lesson at the school. The sample lesson was actually done in a fourth-grade classroom during summer school.
- Can you tell me about specific ways you support English Language Learners?
- Could you share an instance where you worked with colleagues to achieve a goal? What happened, and what did you take away from it?
