It was a group interview with more than 25 people and they put you in groups of five. It started with a presentation and then there were five rounds of group interviews. Some were focused on how you would react in a situation, one was analyzing a poem, one was more traditional interview questions, and one was role play. Altogether the group concept is a bit weird and it's hard to gauge what they're looking for.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you react to a student misbehaving (role-play)
A lot about willingness to discipline, how you grew up, adaptability, etc. Also stuff on what my educational experience was like (strict or not strict)? Also mock roleplay about disciplining a kid

I received a random message on LinkedIn from a recruiter. We had a call where they went over interview prep and scheduled the meeting. They asked pretty standard questions. Teaching experience, why teaching and why this specific academy, a time where you dealt with a difficult situation or person, how do you take constructive criticism then a simulated situation where they give you a scenario about ‘difficult’ parents and kids.
I applied online. I interviewed at Success Academy Charter Schools (Bronx, NY) in May 2026
Interview
The interview is done very quickly, and the questions are to the point. The interviewee should try to answer in a short, precise manner. Confidence is essential for the interview.
