      Assistant Language Teacher Interview

      Apr 15, 2017
      Anonymous employee
      Tokyo
      Accepted offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at BorderLink (Tokyo) in Jan 2017

      Interview

      Its not an interview. It's an acceptance process. Instead of individually interviewing everyone, they have group orientation, where they bring everyone in, tell you welcome for being accepted, then formally offer you. Also they don't respond to emails very quickly, taking about 2 weeks or more to respond and are not very professional with keeping up with employees or potential hires. They give an excuse of being busy, but that isn't an excuse to not keep up with their hires

      Question 1

      Why do you want to work in Japan?

      The first interview was 30-45 minutes long.it was a group interview.we were given a topic to discuss.i believe the interviewer wanted to check our English proficiency,,they responded within 5 working days and i qualified for second interview. Which was also fine.

      Assistant Language Teacher Interview

      Anonymous Interview Candidate

      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at BorderLink in Mar 2021

      Interview

      After submitting your application, you get contacted for a first 'interview'. In reality this is just an orientation meeting with a couple other candidates, with a group discussion tacked on at the end. This is your first chance to actually speak and I guess they're looking for enthusiasm, general knowledge, your general level of English and for you to show that you know how to toe the line. If you pass, you get invited for a second interview. This is the actual interview. Most of the questions are rehashes of the application you filled in, so as long as you stay consistent on it, you should be fine. After a while, I had to do two roleplays. The first one was where I had to introduce myself in English to a class of junior highschoolers. The idea is to elicit a response and get some dialogue going as opposed to a monologue. The second roleplay was teaching an elementary school class a song of your choice with the idea of teaching vocabulary. I chose head, shoulders, knees and toes as most others would I assume, given that it's the easiest to do and teaches vocab nicely. Afterwards, they'll tell you they will be in touch in a couple of business days with their final decision.

      Question 1

      If you came up with a plan for a lesson, activity or a game and the teacher would tell you they weren't going to use it it, how would you deal with that?
