I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Kumon (New York, NY) in Feb 2017
Interview
The interview process was very casual. The manager was friendly and asked basic interview questions. Most of the questions were about the Kumon program. For instance, where was Kumon derived from? How does it work, etc?
Interview went pretty smoothly , asked about previous experience and didn't do any math or English test. Faces lit up when I mentioned I had done kumon in the past
Quick questions from manager, not too difficult. Included questions on experience, willingness to learn and train (brief). Also asked how many hours willing to work. Interviewer was nice and patient.
The boss and assistant managers interviewed me about my educational experience, tutoring experience, and why I wanted the position primarily. It was professional but still there was room for more open-ended conversation on both ends during the interview.
