      Pros

      “Easiest” interview/hiring process; if you had a degree you were hired. No prior experience was needed. After spending time at the schools, I can see why this company was desperate.

      Cons

      One 8 hour online training session, which offered hardly any preparation for what you’d actually experience; one of their HR employees had the gumption to send me an email telling me how to do my job after I spent almost several years full time in the schools, and they never spent a day inside a classroom.

      Pros

      Somewhat easy application and easy hiring. Can choose days to work and assignments available everyday. Good to get experience in schools if no education degree yet or deciding.

      Cons

      Same day or very short notice of assignments available (depending on location). Constantly checking app for work. Minimum wage for this important job.
