I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at La Petite Academy (Albuquerque, NM) in Aug 2010
Interview
I was working as a shift manager at the time of my original hire, two months later I was promoted to an assistant manager position. Both of these interviews and hires was done at a school level. Four months after I was originally hired I was interviewed by the divisional vp during a school visit, for a Director position.

Question 1
It was during a tour of the school that I did my interview. The vp asked me questions a family would ask me. I also spoke to our fiscal health of the school, challenges the school faced re enrollment and my plan to address those. I spoke to our accreditation standing and how I would ensure success of the team during the accrediting bodies visit.
