Skype for initial Interviews

[Dogface]

With all this tech floating around,
please tell me some of you young
whipper snapper AD's and Princes
are using Skype/Facebook etc.
to video interview.
What about video resumes?
These days with gas prices and the ease of use,
only a schmuck would require some poor schmuck
to drive 2-5 hrs out to your place for a first interview.
The interview is everyone's first impression.
How does it make the school look?
How weird is it to require a teacher to integrate technology in the classroom
when the Princ./Supe./AD-HC can't do it?
It's way weird.
jus sayin'.

They did Skype interviews in lieu of phone interviews at my college for the new football coach. I think they selected 25 from resumes, then whittled down to 15. Those 15 got Skype interviews. From those 15 they picked 5 finalists for on campus interviews. Everybody seemed to think that they worked really well.

So,
you got some sort of Georgian secret
to look 35 lbs. lighter and 15 yrs. younger
in person?!?!
Dish please.

BTW,
there is 1 county in Texas
that grows more peaches
than the whole state of Georgia.
jus sayin'.

Got to call on that doggy.
California is # 1, South Carolina is # 2 and Georgia is # 3 in peach production by state.

That doesn't surprise me.
I got my facts from
The Dogface Book Of Texas Braggin' Rights.
So...
there's that.

Actually,
it's a UIL/Illuminati
conspiracy about the Georgia peaches.
jus sayin'.

N-E wayz
Had my first Skype interview today.
Didn't want to risk being cut off so I hooked up to a hard line.
They were breaking up a little,
but I understood their questions.
Nice not having to drive out for an initial interview.
Everyone should ask about the possibility of it when talking to Princ's/Supe's etc.

Actually,
I don't have it collared yet.
Just the first interview.

(Don't know if I would say yet anyway.
I was told everyone hates me
so I wouldn't want a new boss
to get any anonymous calls).
HA
jus sayin'.

The point is that it worked for both of us,
but I had to suggest it.
You could too!

 

[collegekid]

Good answer. I wouldn't want this board to influence any blockage of jobs. Everyone is entitled to free speech, even if not everyone agrees with the words!

[Dogface]

Just thought I'd re-visit this topic
again.
Did 2 Skype's last year.
Can't believe EVERYONE isn't doing it.

So much experience still pushin' a pencil?
What kind of statement does that make?
It's so easy.
