      How to Answer

      It's always a great idea to have questions ready for the interviewer. Review the company website and their social media platforms to ensure that the questions you are asking are not mundane, or redundant. The last thing an interviewer wants to hear is a list of questions you could have found the answers to from a simple Google search. It's a good idea to write these questions down.

      "- if I was hired what are the contract dates?

      - what does the school calendar look like for next year?

      - do teachers get the chance to collaborate with each other?

      - are there any training dates on how the online platforms work?"

      Stephanie's Feedback

      These are great questions! I personally suggest starting a larger scale first (example: "Do teachers get the chance to collaborate with each other?") and then getting into the more nitty-gritty questions if you have time (example: "If I was hired, what are the contract dates?") The broader questions show a genuine interest in the role and in the organization.
