I applied online. I interviewed at Achievement First (New Haven, CT)
Interview
Basic questions on teaching and curriculum design. Very fast paced and clear. Be sure to know about the common core standards and be specific in answering scenario questions. Be honest and do not apply if your intention is not to put students first. Very intense and straightforward so do your homework and review the website. overall great experience.

I applied online. I interviewed at Achievement First
Interview
The process was really intense. Several meetings, some remote and a day long process in-person in addition to a model lesson with live coaching. I interviewed with several school and org leaders simultaneously and was asked to participate in role plays and simulations. I disagreed with the approach/advice of some of the school and org leaders which was good for me to learn during that point as job interviews are about overall compatibility.
