The interview process was a very relaxed and conversational interview. It was more like a get to know you for the job rather than an interview. Super nice people as well.

The interview took long to establish especially since the high schools were getting ready for winter break. Nonetheless, I was called back to be interviewed a week later. I was interviewed by two people who worked as staff for the program. The interview took about 20-25 minutes long and the questions were pretty relevant to any teaching-student experiences. They asked about my background and why I wanted to work for Cal-SOAP. They really like to know how well you can work with students especially those who may not be as engaged in classroom settings. They wrote down everything I said and I noticed i filled up all their boxes for each question they asked me. It was a bit nerve-racking considering other people were present in the same space where the interview took place. These kind of settings can make feel uneasy because I tend to get distracted.
