This is NOT an interview. The purpose of this phone call is to get to know you better as we go over your submitted application.

If you’re approved to move forward, you’ll be contacted again to schedule a formal interview.

Before the interview

You’re required to answer questions about your Arizona teaching certification before you’re ready to interview.

You can look up your teaching certification information on the AZ Department of Education website.

If you hold more than two valid certifications, please let your Scoot consultant know during your interview.

After the interview

If you had a stellar interview, your consultant will email you to complete the next steps of the hiring process.

You’ll be asked to upload/submit the following:

  1. Identification documents

  2. ​​Three references including at least one supervisor

    1. We contact these references via email, text and/or phone to review your previous work experience.

  3. Fingerprint clearance card

    1. You’ll be given instructions on how to apply for your fingerprint card if you don’t have one already.

    2. Scoot reimburses up to $67 of the cost in your first paycheck.

  4. Payroll information

    1. This is so you can start getting paid right away!

Offer letter

If everything goes smoothly, we’ll send you an offer letter! Woohoo!

We perform a final check, then your consultant will email you with instructions on how to download our Scoot2Work app and receive school assignments.
