My wife is a teacher looking for a job in a new district closer to where we live. It's her life's passion, and her scores and the results show this. In a normal interview, she does extremely well, but guess what. She has an absolute phobia about getting in front of a camera for any and I mean ANY reason. She will literally almost have a panic attack and or a flip-out before it's over. She cannot stand it. However, in front of any normal job interviewer, she has absolutely ZERO problems.
I just got through trying to video her for one of those 'digital' interviews. What a load of shit. they ask you complex or compound questions and expect you to give a video response with a time of less than a minute, thirty. It's a job interview, not video speed dating! You're taking a person who trained, got a formal education, and worked hard for a certification to teach, and reduced them to a speed dating style interview!? This is complete bullshit! No wonder your districts are having trouble getting teachers, Texas.
How many people out there do you know that could keep it together
in front of this
for more than a little while.
This is the same kind of treatment you give someone being booked into a prison. Take the mugshot , front and side. This kind of crap can take a well educated, well qualified person and tear them down in minutes to a first year rookie by outward appearance.
PROPERLY QUALIFIED PEOPLE DESERVE A PROPERLY QUALIFIED INTERVIEW!
Soldiers deserve soldiers...
