Behavioral Presentation
Went to a winter job fair, which was different from other district fairs. You're put in a room with a name tag showing your certification, and HR picks you to meet with a school. I expected to meet several schools and had many resumes, but you only meet one and interview for the whole district. I'm a math/science person and interviewed for an ELA position. They did offer me a math/science job at the fair for when one opened up. A few days later, a different school called looking for a math and science teacher. I met the team I'd be working with, and they interviewed me. The next day, the principal called me in to meet her and the math specialist, and they gave me a school tour. The following day, the principal called with the job offer. The HR part was slow, as usual, taking almost a month for paperwork after the 10-day interview-to-offer process.

Behavioral Other
I was part of the Clinical Teaching program, which is the same as Student Teaching but with a different name for those with a Bachelor's degree through Lone Star College. I went to an orientation at Spring ISD where leaders talked about how to be successful in the district. During this, everyone was told about an opportunity to become a substitute teacher. We talked with the people who hire staff and filled out paperwork for that, as well as for student teaching assignments for the semester. The hiring process itself was separate from the student teaching process and felt more like a strict assembly line. Lots of paperwork, but thankfully most was online. The person leading it was professional and nice, and clearly had a lot on her plate but managed it all really well.

Behavioral Presentation
I was told I would hear from the head principal next. Three weeks later, they called to interview me for the same position. I told them I had already interviewed and was waiting to meet with the principal. Within the hour, I met with him and was hired. I do wish they would’ve been more organized because it would’ve saved me 3 weeks of countless interviews and frustration.

- Can you explain co-teaching using your own words?
