I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Teach for America in Jan 2012
Interview
I was given the opportunity for a phone interview. They had me sign up for a time slot, and the only one that was available/worked with my schedule was at about 7:30pm. The girl who interviewed me seemed friendly enough, but she honestly did not seem that interested in anything I was saying and sounded tired and unfriendly. I did not think my interview went very well as they asked a lot of questions in which I had to repeat myself regarding my previous work experiences. I personally did not think that I put my best foot forward, nor do I think I clicked with my interviewer at all.
The interview was relaxed and they were certainly there to help. They made it clear they would help you through the whole process of becoming a teacher with your own mentor guiding you.
easy and fun, lots of help through the process. Very helpful and kind, lots of responsiveness. everyone has a clear vision of the mission, and wants to achieve it. Loved it.
