      First Grade - Science/Social Studies Teacher Interview

      16 Aug 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Brooklyn, NY
      Declined offer
      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Achievement First (Brooklyn, NY) in Aug 2016

      Interview

      Thorough, detailed, transparent, supportive and I daresay, enjoyable. There was constant follow through as well as various team members who were available to make each step clear and actionable, as a prospective employee. I was very impressed with the process, and the staff I dealt with (particularly the recruitment manager and principal). They were a huge draw to the offer, but the position wasn't quite what I was looking for.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Queries about teaching pedagogy, role playing (as a colleague, dealing with a coworker who was not completing his duties) and instructor (other adults role played as disengaged students; the principal was also giving in the moment feedback and coaching). Many questions, fairly standard to the education industry, were also discussed.
