The hiring process began after I turned in an application on Country Home's website. About two weeks later I was called by Country Home's office staff for an interview for a position as a teacher. The employee who called was nice, efficient, and direct. The interview was with the Assistant Director who was very friendly and bubbly. I was hired after answering one question about how to handle biters and, although I have a lot of experience with biters and gave a very detailed answer to the question, I still thought it was a little strange to be hired after one question. At the time of the initial interview, I was asked to come back a few days later for a to speak with the director about pay, any questions I had, and begin orientation. After Orientation, background checks, and FBI fingerprinting I began to test out positions in classrooms.

It took two interviews back to back. One with the director and another with the assistant. I was hired on the spot and started my training the very next day.
