I Was Hired Off a Facebook Message

Ever been thrown into an interview and thought, what is happening right now? Same.

In this episode, we’re swapping stories about the most ridiculous teaching interviews we’ve ever had — from being handed five books and a pen and told to “get on with it”, to being grilled by a full horseshoe of governors, to literally landing a job off the back of a cheeky Facebook message.

We talk about when to trust your gut, what red flags to spot, and why interviews should be more about real conversations - not tray tasks and trauma.

If you’ve ever lied about a club, cried after an interview, or just said “I don’t know” mid-question… this one’s for you.
