I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at La Mesa-Spring Valley SD (La Mesa, CA)
Interview
I was interviewed after completing my student teaching while getting my elementary education teaching credential from San Diego State University. The interview process was as expected and went smoothly. My student teaching experience was very positive and I was encouraged to apply by the principal.

Interview
It was an interview with a principal at a school site. There were other teachers on the interview board who currently worked at the school. They asked multiple questions and were very kind.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
They asked about communication with parents and classroom management skills. They also asked about previous experiences.
No interview. Just complete the CBEST and live scan requirements. Job can be inconsistent, but is relatively easy going and engaging. This is a great opportunity for meeting educators in the field and getting to know whether education is the right career move.
