      Resident Teacher Interview

      Mar 1, 2018
      Anonymous employee
      Baltimore, MD
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at City Teaching Alliance (Baltimore, MD) in Jan 2018

      Interview

      The first round is an online application. The second round is a "Digital Performance Task" where you are asked a series of questions in which you have to respond virtually. But you are not talking to another person, you record yourself answering and submit each response. The third and final round is the Final Interview Day which takes place in person (or Virtually). The FID is meant to mimic the daily schedule of a resident in the program, and the various portions of the interview relate to the different aspects of a resident's day. You do things like present a mini-lesson to "students", and have a 1-on-1 role playing activity as a teacher with a "parent".

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      Why Urban Teachers?
      Answer question

      Question 2

      As a resident, you are asked to balance student-teaching with a full course load; how do you think you will be able to manage your time?
      Answer question

      Question 3

      Tell us about a time you have failed or struggled, and how you overcame that experience.
