Case: How are you different from other candidates?
I recently attended a job fair and the administrator asked me "What makes you different from the hundreds of other candidates applying for the position?" What is a good way to answer this question?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
The ability to self-reflect is a highly desired attribute in teacher candidates since we have to regularly engage in such practices as we assess why our students are performing the way they are. Therefore, I would recommend taking time to determine the answer to the question. What make you different? Did you travel abroad and therefore have a wide knowledge of other cultures? Do you have past experiences that would make you relatable or more empathetic to students? Once you identify that difference, pare down your response to a sound bite that you can repeat to other recruiters as needed. |
