First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at The Substitute Teacher Service.
Substitute Teacher
It went pretty well, they were really nice. They asked me about myself, my future goals, and my life aspirations. They also asked about my educational background.
- Can you tell me about your educational background and your aspirations?
- Where did you attend school and what are your future goals?
Guest Teacher
There were several steps for employment. They are detail-oriented, but the interviews were comfortable and fair. I felt like my academic experience and knowledge were valued. I enjoyed the interview and was excited to work with the agency.
- How do you prepare for teaching?
Sales
This is a four-part interview process that gives you a good idea of the company and what they expect. First, it's a get-to-know-you chat where they'll ask about your career hopes and what the company does. Then, they'll go over the compensation plan. After that, you'll shadow a sales consultant to see what the job is like. Finally, they'll check if the job is a good fit for you.
- Can you tell me a bit about yourself?
- What are your career goals and what do you know about our company?
- Could you walk me through the compensation plan?
Substitute Teacher
I was already working as a substitute with STS, so for the building substitute position, I just had to interview with the principal. They asked me more questions than I expected, and I thought since I was already working with STS, it wouldn't be that difficult. The interview included questions about different teaching scenarios and how I would handle them, and I had to give a lot of examples of how I've dealt with various situations. I'm sure the interview process might differ for other school districts, but this was my experience in GVSD.
- Tell me about a situation where you had to manage a difficult parent. What was your approach, and what would you do differently next time?
- How would you handle specific teaching scenarios?
- Share some examples of times you successfully navigated different types of situations.
