I interviewed at Success Academy Charter Schools (New York, NY)
Interview
I applied online and then scheduled a 30 minute interview. I did not get a good feeling from the interviewer and I felt they were looking for people who would follow their rules without questioning.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Focused a lot on structure and discipline and how you would work in a strict environment. I was asked to role play how you tell a student to be quiet and they just wanted you to say "stop talking".
A lot about willingness to discipline, how you grew up, adaptability, etc. Also stuff on what my educational experience was like (strict or not strict)? Also mock roleplay about disciplining a kid

I received a random message on LinkedIn from a recruiter. We had a call where they went over interview prep and scheduled the meeting. They asked pretty standard questions. Teaching experience, why teaching and why this specific academy, a time where you dealt with a difficult situation or person, how do you take constructive criticism then a simulated situation where they give you a scenario about ‘difficult’ parents and kids.

The interview is done very quickly, and the questions are to the point. The interviewee should try to answer in a short, precise manner. Confidence is essential for the interview.
