Case: Switching Districts
I am currently working for a district that is 40 minutes away from my house. I plan on applying for an elementary position with the district that I live in. I am a little nervous about going through the interview process once again. What are the most commonly asked questions that I should prepare for?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I know your post involves commonly asked questions, but I was in your situation last year when I made a similar switch, so am offering simple suggestions. I researched the new school: administration (including pictures so I knew who I would be speaking to), the similarities and differences in the schools, including state test scores (specifically math because that is my content area), demographics, etc. which can usually be found on the website. Additionally, I gathered artifacts that highlighted my performance at the other school like awards, sample lesson plans, student letters, etc. Though I have only been in about a handful of interviews, I have been asked actual content questions several times. Ultimately, I think a large portion of the interview depends upon the grade level and the personalities of the people in the room. Take a deep breath, be confident and don't be afraid to highlight your previous successes. |
