Hello everyone,
I have a question regarding employment as a Direct Hire ALT.
From what I have searched online, there appears to be some locations that require the applicant to not only do an interview, but a practical exam.
I was wondering for those that currently hold Direct Hire ALT jobs, how was the experience like for the interview and the practical exam? Although I’d like to know more about the interview (since I’ve never done an interview in Japan before), I’m particularly interested in hearing more about the practical exam (such as the grammar test, demo lesson, etc) and what I would be expected to know/do in this instance as the Direct Hire position that I am interested in going for someday (maybe in the near distant future) requires a practical exam and I haven’t found any info on this online to the best of my knowledge.
Some background information: I passed the JLPT N3 test in July 2022. I’ve been on the JET Program since 2021. I have a BA in English/Linguistics. I have a TEFL and I am currently doing an online MA in TESOL.
Thank you in advance for your responses.
