Pros

This was by far be the most refreshing interview experience I have ever had. There was value in the fact that I was a person in the process and not just a piece of paper. Every step of the way, I was asked if there were any questions or concerns with the process and what worked best for me. The process was very timely and all steps were well communicated. My visits to the office were also well coordinated and moved like clockwork. They valued my time as much as they valued theirs. Becoming a part of Curriculum Associates was not only a breath of fresh air but a culture shock . . . in a really good way! This is the first large company that I have been apart of that truly says it like it is and lives up to their mission statement. I have had the opportunity to become a part of a phenomenal team with a very strong sense of community. That alone to me speaks volumes to the value Curriculum Associates places in themselves and others.

Cons

None that come readily to mind.
