This turned out to be a virtual interview that recorded video answers to question prompts. There was no human interviewer, just an app that malfunctioned throughout the interview process. Overall, it was a rather unpleasant experience.

Question 1
For one, they asked interviewees to quickly write and conduct a lesson plan on the spot. No one prepares (quality) lesson plans in 5 minutes. Also, the questions were incredibly redundant. For example, there were 3 questions that asked for a job history overview. Each one was just rephrased in a slightly different way.
You are sent a link to an online video interview. They ask you about previous tutoring experience and the last question was asking you to do a mock-tutoring session. It's very awkward because you have to make up what you want to teach on the spot, but you get unlimited time to think of responses.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Varsity Tutors (University Park, MD) in Aug 2025
Interview
AI Interview, very easy. Asked very basic question's regarding experience, motivation, etc. I’m a freshman student in UMD and so I haven’t been to many job interviews, but this was genuinely easy.

Question 1
What age group are you most comfortable with tutoring?
Easy and self recorded. You record answers to questions and can redo it if needed. Customer service questions as well as content and tutoring experience questions. You take assessments to then qualify to teach subjects
