School interview vs holiday?????

Why don't you call the university and explain your situation? I feel sure they would be happy to reschedule your interview.\n\nIf for some reason they cannot, then you must decide what is most important to you.

Agree. "Year-round" schools that only have those 4 weeks off have much better academic progress than those who take the 10 weeks. It is also nice (I've heard from teachers in year-round schools) to have the 2-week spring break, and the week-long gaps betweeen sessions. It is much better for refreshing the teacher's mind while minimizing student regression over those vacation times.\n\nAlso, as a special education teacher, I have found the amount of "regression," or loss of skills over the summer, to be unacceptable. Most parents do NOT work with their kids over the summer, and kids with special needs should have year-round exposure to the skills they are trying to learn.

Group interviews are tricky.  The reasons to interview groups: to interview as many as possible, to see how you react in a group setting of your "peers", and to test your ability to excel in a group setting by voicing your opinion instead of staying quiet and passive.  First, be on time, dress appropriately (not too formal because you look fake and not too casual lest you look sloppy), be prepared for the standard interview questions (how would you contribute, what difficult situations have occurred in previous employment and how did you handle them, strengths vs. weaknesses)...it's christmas time, seasonal help is needed all over, as long as you follow these simple suggestions it is in the bag, don't worry and get some sleep to be well rested for the interview

Definitely try to see how everyone is dressed there before you go to the interview, and do your best to dress accordingly. Be very well mannered and avoid use of slang for an office type job. If your personal life or relationships are mentioned, NEVER entertain them. Tell them your personal life remains personal. Some Human Resource directors use this step to find out how gossipy you may be.

it depends on your schools policy on being absent, and if you have not missed much school this year. but i think it would be ok to take the day off due to not being able to take a shower and no clean clothes but do call the school and let them know why. but they still may give you a hard time because of it.

The best time of day is when you will be at your best.  If you're a morning person, get in there early (but not before the interviewer has had their coffee, they might be an evening person).

Yes, I did. I got the job too, after going to 3 different interviews. That's ridiculous! They just ask repetitive questions that are annoying, and you just answer the way you think you should. I thought I was going to be full time and that's what they had me thinking, come to find out they have me in their system as part time. So, I'm thinking of finding something else. I have to wait and see after the holidays if my hours go down a lot. Does anyone else think that all the questions they ask at interviews is a waist of time! It's outrageous.

Dress nice but confortable It depends on what kind of job your getting I am not into dresses really so I dont wear them to a interview! I would feel awkward and it would show! Just be yourself,pretend your talking to someone you have known a while! I am getting ready to go on a interview monday at a job that I have had before and am still nervous! So What I am going to do is get up in plenty enough time to get ready and just relax and just tell myself if I get it its great if not its not ment to be!! Things to not do! Say you cant work weekends on most jobs!!! not brush your teeth would also be one! I would have a mint in my mouth while talking just to make sure! Good luck!

President's Day is a legal holiday.  Some school districts give students the day off; others do not.  I'd suggest looking at an online calendar for your daughter's school district, if there is one.  If not, have her call some of her friends -- they might know.

The work is rewarding - the children and their parents/carers are fantastic at my school, and it is a great pleasure and privelege to work there - but the workload is really intense and never lets up, and you find yourself spending half the holidays unwinding and catching up on your paperwork and laundry, etc and then preparing for the next term, with just a few days or weeks having a normal life of your own.  It is incredibly hard work, you often find you are working 60 hours a week, and you need supportive and understanding friends and family, as it's sometimes difficult to have time and energy to have a life - but you do need a life outside teaching as you would otherwise burn out or become isolated.  However, the kids are fantastic!

Dress for success, dress nicely. Don't curse during the interview, smile, look up information on the company that is interviewing you. A question that they may ask you is why you want to be emplyed there, and what you know about their company. If you are a girl, don't wear big earings, or wear too much perfume because this may take their attention away from you. Just give your honest anwer to the questions that they ask you. Hope this helps and good luck with the interview!!! :0)

Well it depends, most employers are very picky about interviews and the applicants, this was indeed not a very good first impression.  But of course, you have a mid-term and school is much more important, so you may need to concentrate on that.  \nAs far as the interview is concerned, it's all up to the inteviewer.  If he has a heart, he would excuse you and call you back to reschedule if he was really impressed with your qualifications.  However, that is in a perfect world.    Most likely, you would be scratched from the "Yes" pile.   So either or can happen.  But employers are very busy and you probably dented his schedule and made yourself look undependable and full of excuses.

Yes, sound purely grateful and thankful. It depends on how the interview went and what the interviewer is like. If its a nice and soft guy, send. If not, don't send.
