I applied online. I interviewed at British Council (Tokyo) in Feb 2018
Interview
Main bulk of the interview involves answering questions about classroom activities and situations (how you deal with them, set them up and so on) so it’s good to prepare specific examples to talk about. You may get asked to talk through a lesson you have delivered in terms of the aims and outcomes.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you tell us about a recent lesson you have taught? What were the aims and how did you help learners achieve them?
The interview process was normal, classic, and easy to follow. The interviewers were friendly and professional, creating a comfortable atmosphere. Communication was clear throughout, and the overall experience felt organised, welcoming, and positive.
Professional. It followed a structure of questions based on behavioural competencies which examined a range of behaviours from organisation to holding people accountable. The interview was very much about illustrating these required competencies to prior experience.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at British Council (Singapore)
Interview
When I applied there were physical people in HR in Singapore. Now HR is a portal. You have to do a timed video interview with set questions. If you get through that you will be interviewed by real people.
