I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Fairfax County Public Schools (Fairfax, VA) in May 2018
Interview
Typical Teacher Interview, what really upset me though was that HR told me that I had a week to decide and that they would follow up with me for an answer... instead the school called me a week later to tell me that they gave the job away to someone who was "more enthusiastic about the position". It was very frustrating.

Question 1
Around 8 questions. Be prepared to speak about your classroom management, communication with families, collaboration with team.
easy, and very straight to the point, however, my supervisor told me the questions they asked and whatnot and found some of the questions to be odd. However, you cannot determine who is on the panel and what questions they deem to be realistic. I would rather actually spend time learning about the district and expectations.

The interview took place in person with a team of teachers from the grade they were hiring for. All teachers took turns asking questions. After the interview, the administration team reached out to you by email regarding job offer.
