      Teacher Interview

      Oct 30, 2017
      Anonymous employee
      Brooklyn, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Achievement First (Brooklyn, NY) in Apr 2013

      Interview

      There was phone interview that was set up via e-mail. The phone interview helped the person gauge whether I would be a good fit for the school/network by asking me a series of questions about my organization style, my teaching experience (if any) and why i want to be a teacher. There was an in person demo lesson which i prepared for by going on the schools website and viewing how lessons were taught. I also received support in preparing for the demo lesson from the recruiter who gave me all the information I needed in order to be successful and know what type of lesson to teach. The final portion was a group interview with 2-3 other people from the school. During the group interview we debriefed my demo lesson and talked about what I would do what the worksheets i gave to the students. I said I would analyze the work by whether the student got it, didn't get it and was almost there and then i would think about how i would get the almost there kids to get there and the kids who didn't get it i would analyze why they didn't get it and how i could best support them to get it!

      Easy interview

      Application

      I interviewed at Achievement First (Providence, RI)

      Interview

      The interview process seemed to be quite simple and straight forward. I spoke with a recruiter after I applied and did a phone interview with them before setting up an interview for in person with the principal. The entire process was pretty straight forward and explained prior to the in person interview.

      Smooth on location lesson demo feedback on lesson plans could be a little bit faster with the response and picking date for interview Staff seems nice It was an average teacher interview review your résumé go over your lesson demo and then that's when they decide if they're going to offer you an offer letter
