I was teaching in Canada and was offered position via telephone. I had been referred by a Fulton County Supervisor that was told I might want to teach public school again in my hometown.

Begins with phone interview in which you teach a 5-7 minute sample lesson over the phone. This is to qualify for a candidate pool. At first I was intimidated but I quickly felt comfortable. The interviewer was very pleasant and non threatening. Then you can be contacted by specific schools for in person interviews. This is a panel interview that includes another sample lesson taught to the panel as if they're your students. Then it moves on to standard teacher interview questions. Overall the process is extensive but not scary-- everyone was very friendly and non-intimidating.
