Hiring a Teacher

How do you design an interview? What questions do you ask to figure out if you are hiring the right person for the job? These were some of the thoughts I had when coming up with interview questions for the hiring process. The interview is an opportunity to get to know an applicant in ways that can't be gleaned from a resume. So when developing the questions I thought about what I would like the interviewer to know about me that is not there in my resume. These included questions about technology, 4C’s, digital learning.

This activity was greatly beneficial to me. Currently I am getting ready to apply for jobs and this gave me a totally new perspective of how to prepare for an interview. It made me look at an interview both through the eyes of an interviewer and as an interviewee. It made me reflect on what are the expectations from new teachers and how to prepare myself for an interview, how to showcase my talent in the right way in order to get hired. Greatly appreciate the feedback provided by the instructor.
