Sunday

Sunday: Our discussions about interviewing was valuable. I was involved in several interview committees at the end of last school year and the material in our text would have been an asset to me. While reflecting on the "dos" and "don'ts" of the interviewing process, I would have changed some of the techniques we employed. It was interesting to note that one of the "dos" is to make the applicant feel comfortable. While I was interviewing applicants, I became very uncomfortable when the applicant was uncomfortable. I think this would be an area of weakness for me as an administrator, not the actual decision making, but the physical interview.
