Interview process takes about a month. There are many components: application, phone interview, 2 recommendations, test, and a whole day interview. The day interview consisted of four parts. Each candidate prepares a teaching sample. Then, here is a group activity followed by questions. In the afternoon, each candidate has a personal interview.

Question 1
What would you do if a students in being unresponsive?
The interview was about an hour and a half long, and it involved a teaching lesson sample, a case study presentation, and a behavioral interview. The behavioral interview took the most time and was the most intense.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Teach for America (Los Angeles, CA) in Feb 2016
Interview
Extremely intensive application and interview process. Online application followed by online activity and full-day in-person interview that involved a sample teaching lesson and a one-on-one interview. I did not have to do the normal phone interview. Overall, the process was not too bad, just very long and a lot of work.
