As a new teacher, you’ve probably been on many, many interviews without any luck. While it’s awful to be rejected, the best thing you can do is use it as a learning experience. Here are some reasons why you may not have been hired for that position.

• Many factors are out of your control
• They may have had someone else in mind
• There were candidates that were a better fit
• You set off red flags
• Too many people applied
• There were questions about your resume

This episode kicks off a series where I interview several principals who tell me what they’re looking for when hiring brand new teachers. They also interview ME, and we’ll see whether or not they’d hire me!
