After an in-person interview with the fine arts heads, I had a phone call. The principal was in a hurry to fill the elementary position fast. I talked on the phone and got hired right away.

Behavioral Presentation

I didn't get any interviews by applying online, so I kept checking the school's website for openings. I reached out directly to the school to see if I could shadow a teacher for a half-day. I ended up observing in a few classrooms and met some teachers who were on the leadership team. They then recommended me to the principal for an interview.

The application process was challenging, requiring persistence due to the application system and email filters. It's recommended to follow up with phone calls to HR or the Nursing Administration team to ensure a timely response. The interview itself is pretty straightforward once the application and referrals are completed.

Behavioral Other

There was a four month wait from when I applied to when I got called in for an interview. The interview itself was pretty laid back, held with the Principal and two office staff members. They asked me questions, but nothing about my past work or what I can do. The questions they did ask were really open-ended, no real right or wrong answers. I honestly have no clue how it went.
