I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at City Year in May 2008
Interview
First, you do the on-line application. Then you do a 15 minute pre-interview. After you pass the pre-interview, you do 45 minute interview in person. If you are not in town, you can do another phone interview.
After a few weeks, you get your acceptance or rejection letter.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
If you have to take a group of kids to an amusment park, what would you do first?
Very simple. Quick virtual interview and pretty simple questions. Research their values and what not and you should be good to go. As far as I remember it was a single interview and decision is relatively soon after that.
Really friendly and welcoming. Try to make it as comfortable as possible and share about the work they do. They want to ensure applicants are making the right decisions and that they assess the values.
I applied through university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at City Year
Interview
Done over zoom and not an overly long process interviews are usually conducted by the IM for a school in the city you are applying for but if you have a pulse you should be fine
