School Psychologist Interview Questions
"When hiring school psychologists, employers are looking for trained applicants with the experience and knowledge to create a safe learning environment for their students and staff. Expect to answer questions about your background in the field, preferred methods of assessment, and experience working with children. You should also be ready to answer situational questions that will evaluate your ability to handle difficult cases such as a violent student. While all school psychologists are required to hold a master's degree, many have a doctorate or specialist degree."

What assessments are you familiar with?
I was only asked a question by a school psychologist in the interview. I was asked if I could manage working in multiple buildings as this assignment was in three buildings. Had she listened to me discuss my experience, I had been successfully working in multiple buildings for 20 years. The interview lasted approximately 15-20 minutes. I never received any contact from the organization after the interview and believed the process to be somewhat disorganized and unprofessional.
