What questions can we answer for you?
An interviewer wants to see how much research you have done on the school. Come up with some questions beforehand about what you want to know about the school. You can impress an interviewer with the right kind of interest.
"I went on your website last week and saw that the school does not have a girls soccer team. Would the school be interested in making a club or team in the future?"
Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

I saw on the website that you are a top-100 rated private school, based on a Washington Post article. Can you share more about why this school fits that standard?
Shane's Feedback
Anything you can do to get a fuller perspective of the school, the better. The interviewee will love you caring about a school they already care about. This could give your immediate buy-in.

What does the transition look like? Can I start working as a teacher in summer 2022?
Rachelle's Feedback
These questions are a good start! I recommend being as specific as possible regarding the transition. For instance, what are you envisioning? Next, rather than asking if you can start working as a teacher in summer 2022, it may be more effective to ask this question more conversationally and softly, such as, 'Are there any factors that would prevent me from working as a teacher by summer of 2022?'
