Corps Member Interview Questions
1,083 corps member interview questions shared by candidates
Straight forward questions about working with children and in a group with other member and what would you do in certain situation. Pretty much questions similar to what was asked in the online application.
How do you deal with difficult children?
How would you deal with a disruptive or problem child.
The final interview is a group-teach interview and then an in-person one-on-one interview. For the teaching assignment, you are given 5 minutes to teach a mini-lesson to the other applicants in the room. This interview ends with a role-play scenario that you are given the day of the interview and then a one-on-one.
Probably the most challenging part was that mine was a virtual interview, which placed some limitations on the sample teaches. Overall in the personal interview I got the impression that they wanted statistics - how many members did I lead in my extracurricular activity, how much of an improvement that was over the previous year, the size of our budget, etc.
They very explicitly ask you what, if anything, would prevent you from fulfilling your two year commitment, which is probably a pretty important question.
Scenario (summarized): You plan to take your students to a play, but the principal opposes allowing the budget to be used for students to miss school. What do you do?
Mock Lesson on any subject
The most difficult part of the one-on-one interview was the role-playing scenario. The goal of the scenario is for you to demonstrate your communication abilities and your ability to foresee potential difficulties.
