Before I was hired, a friend and instructor at the school recommended me to the Dean and one of the Program Directors as a potential instructor. I was invited to speak at a career day forum, which was well received by the students. Several months later, I was asked to become a curriculum advisory board member. After attending an advisory board meeting, I was finally asked to apply for a teaching position. By this time, the next term was approaching rapidly, so the hiring process became rather rushed. The interview process was simple and straight forward, but the orientation process was affected by several problems and a bit harried. After I was hired, I was pleased to find abundant resources to help me prepare my lesson plans, but I was disappointed that I had to seek out most of the resources myself. Once I sought out the resources, though, the librarian, the Dean, the Program Director, and other teachers were very accommodating and helpful.
