Once you’ve submitted your application for a School Teacher Internship via the STI Portal, the next important milestone is the interview process. Here’s how you can find out when your interview is scheduled through the application tracking system on the STI Portal.
Accessing Your Interview Date

- Navigate to the Track Application Section: Once logged in, locate and click on the “Track Application” tab in the main menu. This section is dedicated to providing detailed updates about the status of your applications.
- Review Your Application List: On the Track Application page, you will see a list of all the applications you have submitted. Each entry corresponds to a different internship application if you’ve applied for more than one.
- Check the Interview Date Column: Look for the column labeled “Interview Date” in the table that displays your application details. If your application has been processed and moved forward to the interview stage, the interview date will be displayed here.
What to Do If Your Interview Date Is Listed
- Prepare for the Interview: Once you know the date of your interview, begin preparing as early as possible. Research common interview questions for teaching positions, reflect on your educational philosophy, and be ready to discuss your past experiences and how they’ve prepared you for a teaching role.
- Mark Your Calendar: It’s crucial to mark the date and time on your calendar. Set reminders to ensure you don’t forget or overlook the scheduled date.
- Technical Preparations: If the interview is to be conducted online, test your computer, webcam, and internet connection ahead of time to prevent any technical issues on the day of the interview.
What to Do If No Date Is Listed
If no interview date is listed, it may mean one of several things:
- Pending Review: Your application might still be under review, and no decision has been made yet. Regularly check back to see any updates.
- Follow Up: If a significant amount of time has passed and you still do not see an interview date, consider following up with the STI support team. Use the contact information or the message form provided on the Tracking Application page to inquire about your application status.
- Check for Remarks: Occasionally, additional information or instructions might be provided in the “Remarks” section next to your application status. Ensure to read any notes there that might explain the delay or absence of an interview date.
