The steps you can take with an Education Recruitment Agency
As a teacher, finding the perfect role can be challenging, especially when there are so many options and often heavy competition. This is where you can benefit from having a teammate, a consultant who fights in your corner and ensures you get access to a network of available roles. In this blog post, we’ll guide you through the process of applying to an education recruitment company all the way to landing your perfect job. Working with the right team can make finding a career entertaining, informative, and, most importantly, successful!
Initial Application:
The first step is to send in your CV, and make an initial phone call. Our team of recruiters will assess your CV and find suitable roles for you. Once you’re on our record, you’ll be made aware of our vast portfolio of schools and colleges that need passionate and committed teachers. Due to our long-term relationships with education providers, we can introduce you to roles that are not being advertised externally, giving you a wider range of job opportunities to consider.
Giving you a boost from the start:
Once we have assessed your CV and found suitable roles for you, we will discuss CV advice and cover letter ideas. We understand the best ways to leave an impression, and we want you to thrive in your first interview. To further help with this, we’ll often schedule a telephone interview with the manager of the school or institution. This call will provide you with an opportunity to speak directly with the hiring manager and get more information about the position. Our recruiters will provide guidance on how to prepare for this call so you can put your best foot forward and impress the hiring manager.
The Interview:
After this first call, we’ll work with you to schedule an in-person interview at the school or organisation. Our team will offer you interview preparation advice, providing you with any relevant information about the role, the organisation, and what to expect during the interview. We also understand common interview questions along with the best approaches to them. What should you answer to them? What should you ask them? No problem!
Sealing The Deal:
Once you have completed your interview, we will follow up with the school hiring manager and provide feedback on how you performed. If successful, we will guide you through the job offer process and ensure any requirements you’ve previously asked for are negotiated in the offer. However, our services don't just end here! After placement, we make regular check-in calls to ensure your job satisfaction, share useful resources online, and support your transition into your new dream role.
Working with a teacher recruitment company opens new paths to jobs whilst streamlining the process at the same time. No matter your level of experience in educator interviews, the application process and the needs of hiring managers are constantly evolving. It always helps to have a team of recruitment specialists with updated knowledge to work with you.
Our services include introducing you to roles that are not being advertised externally, preparing you for interviews, providing advice, and following up after the placement. It is our mission to make your search enjoyable and efficient.
