There are many jobs that I have applied to and went through the interview process but the one that stood out the most to me is when I applied for Oshkosh. This job I’m still at because I love my boss and it’s a job that I feel at home with. I will talk about the interview process. How I was initially selected, substantively selected, and ultimately contingently selected this theory comes from the book. Lastly how after working there for about 5 months I got put into a temporary part time supervisor leadership role.

In 8th grade staff and administration from the high school I was going to attend were at my middle school. They were there to give interviews for a program in high school called AVID. Which means advance via individual determination. It was a college preparation course which helps the students that are just below average. Average test scores, average grades and an overall average performance in school. This course was a four-year program to help these selected students get into college and to help them succeed in their classes. AVID wasn’t for dumb kids by any means. AVID pushes their students. For example they require you to take an AP class during your years of high school. AVID was for a certain kind of student, they have the ability to succeed they just don’t know how to get there. I was interviewed and mind you I was a shy, and soft-spoken little girl in middle school. I am the kind of person that you need to be around me for awhile so you can get to know me. Interviews like that I had a hard time with. They wouldn’t be able to get to know me in the ten minutes they talked to me.

I chose to interview the 6th-12th grade Principal at our on-line school for the administrator interview. It was wonderful to visit with her and develop a better understanding of her perspective. Our 6-12 Principal has been an administrator for 5 years. She has spent 13 years in education and has been everything from a 1st grade teacher to a MS teacher. She has also served as a Master teacher, MC Principal, and is now the 6-12 Principal which also includes a separate alternative high school. Her dad was an educator and also served as an administrator.

I would conduct the interview in a very different way I would start it by being more welcoming and ask them how they are doing today and what has brought them in today. After allowing them to share I would then begin to list the services in which they need and then I would talk to them about the next steps after we succeeded from the first stage. At the end of the session, i would make sure that all of their questions and conserns had been

The interviews will be conducted by a panel and inside the panel they will have the line manager and more senior members of the school

The people that I interviewed at Pueblo del Sol Middle School were the Parent Liaison Susie Zavala and the Principal Alejandro Chavez. After coming up with the set of questions the my partner and I wanted to have answered we felt that it was best to interview two people at the school. Mrs. Zavala has been the parent liaison for -- years and Mr. Chavez has been the principal for -- years. Mr. Chavez comes from a family of educators and currently his brother Dr. Jacob Chavez is the Superintendent of a nearby school district. Both interviewees are Latino and seem to have a deep interest for the community and want to see our students and parents succeed. Both Mr. Chavez and Mrs. Zavala gave good insight on how to get parents more involved in

It is important when interviewing that we ask the same or similar questions of each candidate. Administrative personnel should develop a scoring sheet for the interviews, ranking qualifications and experience/knowledge desired for the position based on the questions asked in the interview process. The process may vary a little from location to location depending on the experience of the administrator or

Interviews are “a selection procedure designed to predict future job performance on the basis of applicants’ oral responses to oral inquires” (HR Guide to the Internet, 2001). Once the candidate is selected to interview, the hiring manager should determine the interview format, (unstructured, structured, situational, behavior description, or comprehensive), based on job requirements. Both LL and CCC should match interview methods with job specific requirements and have a prepared outline for each job description.

Evaluator held a class with Ms. Johnson and other participants covering interviewing.

Evaluator explained to Ms. Johnson and participants that is their goal as interviewees to convince the interviewer that they should be selected. Evaluator distributed handouts discussing five stages of the interviewing

10. The candidates who had the best qualifications were screened by means of telephone interviews before being offered in-person interviews.

This question would be asked to make sure that the applicant meets the qualifications necessary to be hired and within the right timeframe.

The interview process is long and time consuming, because the district wants someone who has experience and will get along with the students and have strong bonds with them.

The hiring process includes a series of interviews. Initially, all the candidates are interviewed by a small group of staffers at the company and then a second committee reviews all the applications which include the application’s that are submitted on their own as well as interviewer feedback.
