I applied in-person. I interviewed at Palmdale School District (Palmdale, CA) in Mar 2009
Interview
I submitted an application, resume, and supporting documents such as college transcripts, test-passing verification, recommendation letters, etc. I was then contacted and invited for an interview with the Certificated specialist. There might have been one more person that I interviewed with, but sadly, I don't remember that far back.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
"You arrive at a classroom and there are no lesson plans. There are no other teachers in your grade available to ask about the curriculum, and the office isn't answering their phone. What do you do?"
The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Palmdale School District
Interview
Applied online with CBEST score, 1 letter of rec, resume and cover letter. I received a call the next day to interview that week. Went in for the interview where 2 credential analysts interviewed me for no more than 10 minutes. Afterwards, they asked me to wait outside the conference room so that they could make their decision. A few mins later they said I was hired and needed to start the process right then and there, it was so quick and I didn't really have much time to think about it. They gave me a quick orientation, a packet of information and then sent me to get a drug test.
