Message: [QUOTE="SCNCHuskie, post: 4007172, member: 11200"] I once drove two hours to interview for a teaching position. I considered it to be a really good 45 minute interview, although I considered the majority of the questions rather odd. There was almost no classroom or content specific questions asked. Finally, at the end of the interview the principal asked me why I wanted to be a vice principal? When I stated that I had absolutely no desire to ever be an administrator, they asked me why I had applied for the assistant principal position. I explained that I had not, that I was there for the math teacher position. They had mixed up the interviews and thought I was applying for an assistant principal position, even though I confirmed the interview that morning before driving there. The math one had already been filled. We all had a really nice laugh. And, then I drove back two hours. About a week later I was hired at another school in the same district primarily based on the recommendation of the first principal. Turns out that the first time principal called the other principal for advice and the first one recognized my name and was primarily responsible for me getting the job. I was kind of glad I hadn’t knocked everything off of her desk and storm out like I imagined doing the first time. (Joking) [/QUOTE]
