The NAESP Principal Podcast

NPP_Episode 1 The Job Hunt

For principals, it can be lonely at the top. It’s always a relief to hear from fellow educators who have been there, done that, and are doing more to advance their leadership. That’s why NAESP is excited to share the inaugural episode of a new podcast developed specifically for pre-K–8 principals, the NAESP Principal Podcast. Join principals Dr. Rachael George and Adam Welcome as they discuss best practices, innovative strategies, and pressing topics with special guests from the education community.

It’s that time of year: job hunting season. With the help of Zandra Jo Galván, a superintendent from California, we get you geared up and fired up as you set your sights on the future.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • Applying for the job
  • The power of connection
  • Interview hacks and tips
  • Resume tips and thoughts
  • Epic job hunt failures
  • Social media footprints and the power of presence

Zandra Jo Galván is superintendent of the Greenfield Union School District in California and has worked in public education for the past 27 years. Connect with her on Twitter (@zjgalvan), Instagram (@zangalvan), Facebook, and LinkedIn.
