I applied in-person. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Huntsville City Schools in Apr 2023
Interview
Printed questions that are read off and are usually all the same, no matter which school. Sit with the Principal, Assistant Principal, or athletic director if you are a coach. They are continually writing, so answer their questions and provide clear, concise answers.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Typical questions: How do you manage your classroom?
How do you deal with parents?
If a child is not doing their work, how would you ensure they pass?
First interview was a panel interview. I had to take a written test as well. After I passed the panel interview my information was passed on to a selection of principals. Soon after, I began receiving interviews from different schools. Don't ever turn down an interview, nothing is set in stone.
I interviewed at Huntsville City Schools (Huntsville, AL)
Interview
A group of five random teachers asked the usual canned response questions. They will ask questions you can find the answers to on the internet and they don’t mind if you read the answers. They’re like king for bodies.
