I applied online. I interviewed at IDEA Public Schools (Austin, TX) in Nov 2020
Interview
After I applied, they asked me to do a video interview with just myself. The questions felt generic and not very specific to the position. I'm not sure if I bombed it and I'm out, or if they're taking their time. This position isn't until Fall 2021, and so they're starting early???
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Something about how I embody the mission of IDEA, whether I understood that the position was face to face, describe a time when you had a negative impact on a colleague. They gave me prep time to think of an answer, so I think I did well, but who knows???
