I applied online. I interviewed at Independent Schools Victoria (Melbourne) in Jan 2020
Interview
Application Submission: Candidates submit their resumes, cover letters, and other required documents, such as teaching certifications or references, through an online application system or via email.
In-Person Interview: Candidates who succeed in the initial screening and video/phone interview stages are invited for an in-person interview. This interview typically involves a panel of administrators, department heads, or other teachers. The interview can include questions about classroom management, pedagogy, and content knowledge. Candidates might also be asked to provide examples of their teaching experiences or how they handle various classroom scenarios.
Teaching Demonstration: Some schools may require candidates to conduct a teaching demonstration. Candidates are given a specific topic or lesson to teach, and the hiring committee observes their teaching style, interaction with students, and subject knowledge.
Reference Checks: After the interview process, the hiring committee may contact the candidate's references to verify their work history, qualifications, and character.
Hiring Decision: The hiring committee reviews all information gathered during the interview process and decides which candidate is the best fit for the position. The selected candidate is offered the job, while the other candidates may be notified that they were not selected.
Onboarding: Once the candidate accepts the job offer, the school begins the onboarding process. This may include completing paperwork, attending orientation sessions, and preparing for the upcoming academic year.
