I applied for an instructional coach position in the Tampa, FL area. This job description required a bachelors degree and years of teaching experience but no salary was listed. I should have seen that as a red flag. When I had the initial call with a recruiter they told me the job paid 35-45k. How insulting to be recruiting former teachers and offer 10-20k less than what is currently offered to teachers for only working 10 months. I ended the interview after that part of the conversation.

Applied online and within a few days a recruiter reached out to me to set up a phone screening at a time that worked for me. After the initial phone screening, the recruiter set up an appointment for me to have an in-person interview with the Director and Center Director for the following week. I was given a full tour of the center and then was brought in for a 45 minute interview with both of the directors. Lastly, they had me interact with a classroom for about 10 minutes to get a feel of things. The entire process was very warm and inviting. To wrap it up, they explained to me that the process would take 2-3 weeks before making a decision, and proceeded to tell me the full hiring process and if I wanted to check in on the status I could reach out either to them or the recruiter. They ended up hiring someone else the next day.
