It was a very straight-forward process overall. You come in beforehand to deliver your resume, and then receive an email or a call to come back for a roughly twenty to thirty minute interview.
1 on 1 discussing past experience especially working with kids, tutoring, communication styles, hypothetical situations with your students. They also have you take a test to see where you should be placed
1. It was a brief phone call it figure out a schedule whether you can come in to taken an exam.
2. Ones you complete the exam, they will let you know if you are right for the position.
There is an application submission, brief interview, basic math/reading assessment, discussion of availability and responsibilities, possible training session, then hiring decision based on communication skills, accuracy, and ability to work with children.
