Hiring the best staff for your school : how to use narrative to improve your recruiting process / Rick Jetter.

Includes bibliographical references.

Hiring the Best Staff for Your School moves beyond typical hiring tools-resumes, applications, transcripts, portfolios, and artifacts-and adds effective strategies to the educational leader's recruiting and hiring toolbox. Jetter hones in on the most crucial but often neglected element of talent searches-knowing candidates' attitudes and dispositions about students, learning and instruction, leadership, and other crucial educational topics which affect schools today-and provides an innovative model for hiring the best candidates. This book presents a recruitment and hiring process that uses narratives to help school and district leaders delve deeper into understanding the emotions, ideas, reactions, and problem-solving insights of candidates.
