informal interview

luclu · #1 (**permalink**) 20-04-2009, 05:08 PM

I have an informal interview on Friday! It is at a school I regularly supply teach at! I really do not know what to expect, has anyone ever been to one before? I take it I do not have to teach as they have not told me to prepare anything but should I take a portfolio with me? The job is covering a teacher who is going travelling for a term at least!

Thanks in advance for any advice!!

I was offered a short term contract last year and also had an informal interview about it. All it entailed was a chat about my CV, experiences that I could relate to the position and meeting the class. I also had to spend two days with them and a further week as supply before being offered the position. I would take your portfolio with you (just in case). If you've already done supply there it is probably just a general chat about the job etc. But good luck hope it goes well and keep us posted
