      Academic Dean Interview

      8 Feb 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      New York, NY
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Achievement First (New York, NY) in Feb 2015

      Interview

      Interview process was inconsistent and led to me feelings of disappointment that have now changed into thankfulness because I did not get an offer. While the interview was positive and organized throughout the first phases of the process, the finalist interview day stood out in stark contrast. Not only was the day itself organized, it was also cold and unwelcoming; hiring mangers were rude to me and other candidates (e.g. made other candidates cry during the process - I was in the awkward position of building people I was interviewing against up during the down time between phases of the process).

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      I was asked to revise a lesson I prepped for my demo lesson for increased rigor.

      Academic Dean Interview

      23 Feb 2020
      Anonymous employee
      New York, NY
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Achievement First (New York, NY)

      Interview

      The interview process was very tedious but moderate. It was long, but it wasn't too hard. The level of challenge was fair. It is what you would expect with a leadership position interview.

      Anonymous employee

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Achievement First (New York, NY) in Feb 2019

      Interview

      The interview was 5 hours long with a demo lesson of 15 minutes and several modules that involve role-playing. Interviewers are assessing one's skills but also mindsets (excellence, growth-mindset, high expectations)
