The Process Continues.

On Monday night, after a two week hiatus, the Search Committee is meeting to discuss various potential candidates for the Head of School position. We've received a variety of applications and believe that we have a good candidate pool at this point. We are continuing to receive applications and resumes, and this process will continue until we have engaged a new Head of School.

We can't talk about specifics at this point. Candidates have their own jobs, and it is imperative that we keep our discussions and the identities of potential candidates confidential. What we can talk about is how our process will proceed from here.

The next phase will likely involve semi-finalists. It is always possible that we will get lucky and find the magic candidate right away, but normally, the next phase will be face to face interviews with semi-finalists. These candidates will get to visit the school, visit some of the administration and staff, and then meet with the Search Committee for an extensive interview. Even before this happens, however, we may conduct some telephone interviews to discuss the position with potential applicants so we can gain a better sense of them before we meet with them. Moreover, the Committee will be formulating its interview procedures and questions. If any of you have any particular questions you'd like to ask Head of School candidates, please feel free to email them to us at kadimaheadsearch@gmail.com.

We're sorry that the process has to remain a bit under the radar for now. But we can assure you that the process is moving forward. And stay tuned to this blog; we'll keep posting updates and comments as the process proceeds.
