I applied online. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Soccer Shots (Fairfield, CT) in Dec 2021
Interview
Two Part interview process. First a phone interview is set-up; this takes about 30 minutes. Once you make it through that, Soccer Shots offers an in-person demo.
In the demo, you come out to one of the locations where they run their soccer program. You observe at first, but you are tasked with leading parts of the 2nd or 3rd session. From there, a conversation and debriefing. You will know if you got the job by the end of the in-person demo!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What was one thing that you were uncomfortable with during the soccer session?
I applied online. I interviewed at Soccer Shots (Los Angeles, CA)
Interview
Phone interview, then in-person interview with the owner. Quite direct and transparent when it comes to the nature of the job. Soccer ability is not the most important vs. childcare ability.
Online process at first, then quick to get started. The communication lacked after the initial part once getting started. Met a few coaches and some didn't seem too friendly of the system. Entire team lead is remote.
On the field, questions mainly centered on children safety. Role playing at end. Not too much about soccer itself, very focused on how you provide a good experience to kids.

Question 1
If one child had to go to the restroom or was going somewhere else and you had all of these other kids, what would you do.
