Guest Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 I am on my daughter's playgroup committeee and we are advertising for a new leader. What kind of questions should we be asking interviewees? It is a small and rural setting with children from aged 3 to 5 and half?
AnonyMouse_22106 Posted January 31, 2010 Posted January 31, 2010 We are a committee run setting; do you have any prior experience of working with a committee? What do you consider to be your strengths and weaknesses? How would your work colleagues describe you? Are you considering any further training? Have you had any experience of a child protection issue at work? If so how did you deal with it? If not, can you tell us what you would do? What do you think makes for a good team? How would you handle conflict with another member of staff? We have to set out and clear away furniture every day, how do you feel about this? What safety issues do you think you would need to consider in reference to the above question? Suppose a child in our setting keeps hitting, biting or pushing other children how would you deal with this? We also take an 'area for improvement' from our Ofsted report and ask them how they would go about developing that issue. Hope this is of use. Good Luck with your interviews hope you get lots of candidates
AnonyMouse_19920 Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 would you also ask about their knowledge of eyfs - if they havent been working for few years might not be up to date on this? free flow play -what is their interpretation - how would they do this?
AnonyMouse_3735 Posted February 1, 2010 Posted February 1, 2010 There are some qusetions here in the resource library.. perhaps you could build on these or adapt them.. Inge
