Question 1
What does being an antiracist teacher look like for you?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Achievement First in Jun 2021
Interview
The interview process was really positive. Everyone I interacted with was really kind, which drew me even more to the company. I went through 2 actual interviews, one a short phone call and the other an in depth video interview with a demo lesson element. After my initial interview, it took about 3 weeks of back and forth communication for the talent coordinator to find the right position for me for a final interview. I was slightly anxious during that time. It felt like too long to be waiting and waiting for a job that might not even get offered to me. However, my point of contact throughout the hiring process was incredibly communicative and supportive. They didn't hesitate to explain the situation and made me feel like my time was respected. I really cared about the company's values so I stuck with it. I'm really glad I did.
